Hi Ravi,

<i>can it possible to send through http adaptor? without any additional software/component installed at remote side (webservice,webserver..) </i> - This is not possible because HTTP adapter is configured for sending data as an XML msg... so you can send your data in an XML msg to a remote server via HTTP adapter but it will not be sent as a file to it.....So for sending file, XI provides file adapter with FTP protocol.

Thanks,

Ravi,

This is not possible.

The receiver HTTP adapter will send the entire payload to the HTTP address , it will not send it as a file. You will need to have a service waiting for the request from the HTTP adapter that will be able to do the needful on the payload.
