How to include header "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" as part of PI response

[Former Member]

Hi Guys

Need some help here.

My mobile app vendor is invoking my web service via SAP PI. However they require a response header - Access-Control-Allow-Origin in order to access the services due to CORS. They claim that their invocation is blocked due to javascript's security for cross-domain access via xmlhttprequest calls.

Does anyone has any idea on how to go about doing it ?

Current Process:

Mobile Apps --> SAP PI --> Web Service running on IIS (.NET)

Will appreciate any reply/help.

Thanks

I have had the same problem, but the only solution that I have found is through a proxy.

I have no found an answer for this iether. I know that there are header fields that can be added to the server of the secondary services (ie: the PI server hosting the CostCenter webservice),
however, I have not been able to determine from SAP’s documentation where to
successfully place these headers (or if PI even supports them)

Hi Ming,

For Interoperability between SAP PI and .NET applications this link can be useful for you http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-3453

I haven't heard anything about Access-Control-Allow-Origin, but googling it, it's about a field in the http header, isn't it?, you can add fields with ASMA in the HTTP sender http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/43/64db4daf9f30b4e10000000a11466f/content.htm
