Add string to XML Message - HTTP Post

[robert_warde4]

Hi experts,

I have a requirement to modify a XML payload and add a test string to the start. The usual XML payload is below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Request version="1.0">

<Verification>123</Verification>

</Request>

What I want to do is add a test string to the start of the XML payload as shown below.

load=<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<Request version="1.0">

<Verification>123</Verification>

</Request>

Does anyone have any ideas how this can be done?

FYI - We are using PI 7.3. I can see the prolog on a 7.11 HTTP adapter but not on the 7.31 Adapter

Hi Robert,

We do not have PI 7.3 at the moment, but the prolog I was referring to is the one you see on the 7.11 adapter. As far as I know, you can still use the 7.11 adapter metadata even if you have 7.3.

Hi MArk,

I checked and we can't, as the adapter is on the Java stack it only supports the latest meta data. I will investigate further

[markangelo_dihiansan]

Upon checking the documentation, it seems this can be achieved by checking the Set Form option in the channel.

Can you try &load= and load= as your entry in the MainPayload Parameter Name?

Hi,

load=<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<Request version="1.0">
<Verification>123</Verification>
</Request>

Does anyone have any ideas how this can be done?

Yes, this can be done. If your communication channel is:

a.) Plain HTTP Adapter - you can add this in the communication channel via the prolog section. Value is load=

b.) SOAP Adapter - Do Not Use SOAP Envelope needs to be checked and the load= has to be added via Java mapping.

Hope this helps,

Mark

Hi Mark,

We are using the HTTP adapter. When you say the 'prolog section' what do you actually mean?

Thanks

Hi Robert,

Can you provide more details about underlying requirement for addition of this test string to the payload? This will help in providing the feasible solution.

The vendor we are working with required a parameter to be added to the inbound XML payload. We are stuck with this requirement.
