SAP AII - How to consume and expose webservices ?

[former_member189387]

Hi Friends ,

I am new to SAP AII , we have installed the SAP AII Device Controller 5.1 . Can you please give your views to the following

1. In XI if we use the URL http://host:port /rep , it will show the Integration builder , like this how can we see the main page for SAP AII by URL to dispaly the working components?

2 . Can you please list down the WebServices which are defalutly available in to consume ?

3. What the Transaction codes which we need to aware of ?

4. If any documentation available to consume and expose webservices ? Probably is there way to expose webservice from SAP AII ?

5.Can we call the webservices which are exposed from SAP AII using our .net or java proxies ?

Thanks & Regards.,

Logon to ABAP stack using your SAP logon pad, and write a t-code SXMB_IFR, it will open the XI home page.

or you can use this URL http://<host>:50<systen no>0/rep/start/index.jsp

see this blog from Robert Chu, but it might give you a good start to creating web services:

Hi Farooq,

Thanks for the reply.

But, I need to know about the Web Services from SAP AII ( Auto-Id-Infrastructure ) Device Controller Interface 5.1 not from XI .

Thanks & Regards.,
