SOAP stands for "SIMPLE OBJECT ACCESS PROTOCOL".

SOAP is XML based protocol to let applications exchange information over HTTP.

or in Simple words - SOAP is a protocol for accessing a Webservice.

SOAP adapter enables you to exchange of SOAP messages between Remote clients or Webservice servers and XI/PI.

Hi,

The SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP messages between remote clients or Web service servers and the Integration Server or the PCK.

In the SOAP adapter, you can specify security settings to be used to sign/verify the SOAP body. In addition, you can specify the standard to be used for signing/verifying the SOAP message.

For FAQs about the SOAP adapter, see SAP Note 856597

Hi.,

SOAP is expanded as SOAP ==> SIMPLE OBJECT ACCESS PROTOCOL

It is used to connect to the webservices.,

for example : - if we need to develop a scenario which takes the input from the webservices and needs to be updated either in databases or any R/3 systems (Depends on the requirement). in such cases we have an option of taking either SOAP or HTTP adapters., but when we go to HTTP we need an http test tool which needs for testing.,

explain ur requuirement w.r.t soap services it may give u the solution.,
