XI to WebService . Pls advice urgent

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Scenario:

There is some response from System A back into XI.

I need to send response from XI to System B and get response back to XI.

System B has Synchronous Web Service and has provided its WSDL to XI.

Question:

1. Do I need to Import Webservice WSDL as External Defination in XI.?

2.Do I need to use only Soap Receiver Adapter in XI as it is Synchronous Web Service and XI can get response back from that System or also I need Soap Sender Adapter ?

Hi Sudeep,

[Former Member]

<Can I paste the URL as it is in Soap Receiver Adapter Target URL field?>

Answer: No

u dont need the URL of the WSDL,

u need the URL of the Connection Endpoint:

in the WSDL file goto the tag <wsdl:service> then <wsdl:port> and then <soap:address location="myURL.com">

this is the URL or Connection Endpoint of the opertaion u are going to execute,

for help, use ALTOVA like softwares

Hi Henry,

SOAP action is what your web service should perform to process your data. So select the action accordingly. Sorry could not access the web service wsdl, so cant tell specifically which one to be used.

Sanjeev.

[Former Member]

use target URL as

http://ipaddress/MMWebService/MMWebSrv.asmx

and for SOAPAction

goto <soap:binding> then <wsdl:operation name="yourOperation"> and then <soap:operation soapAction="mySOAPAction">

I cant access ur WSDL, is it over the internet....

the best thing is to use software like ALTOVA XML SPY to analyse ur WSDL, u can download a trial version

Hi ,

For:

<wsdl:operation name="SendMessage">

<soap12:operation soapAction="#SendMessage" style="rpc" />

<wsdl:input>

<soap12:body use="encoded" namespace="urn:MMWebSrvService" encodingStyle="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-encoding" />

I asked my client . He has given me below URL:

http://172.20.80.11/MMWebService/MMWebSrv.asmx?op=SendMessage

Is it corrcet now?

Regards

[Former Member]

I Guess the URL given by u is a HTTP GET request call,

Target URL: http://172.20.80.11/MMWebService/MMWebSrv.asmx

<<soap12:operation soapAction="#SendMessage" style="rpc" />>

hence soapAction: #SendMessage

Hi Sudeep,

I used URL in adapter --

http://172.20.80.11/MMWebService/MMWebSrv.asmx

When I sent message I got error:

<SAP:AdditionalText>soap fault: Server did not recognize the value of HTTP Header SOAPAction: .</SAP:AdditionalText>

My Soap Action is

SOAPAction: "#SendMessage"

How to resolve this error

Regards

[Former Member]

Henry,

if u cant find SOAPAction......

search in WSDL file for all <soap:operation soapAction="mySOAPAction">

u say there are many soapAction....so use them one by one.....this is trial and error,

Note: the error shows, ur target URL is OK, once u get the correct SOAPAction..it ll work,,

Hi Sudeep,

I am sending this xml from runtime workbench:

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

<ns0:MT_REQ_TEST xmlns:ns0="http://CRM">

<MobileNo>1</MobileNo>

<Message>2</Message>

<ActivationCode>3</ActivationCode>

<StrService>4</StrService>

<StrFrom>5</StrFrom>

<StrOptions>6</StrOptions>

</ns0:MT_REQ_TEST>

The below XML forms after mapping

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

- <ns1:SendMessageSoapIn xmlns:ns1="urn:MMWebSrvService">

<strFrom>XI</strFrom>

<strTo>1</strTo>

<strMessage>2</strMessage>

<strSubject>3</strSubject>

<strService>abc</strService>

<nOptions>0</nOptions>

</ns1:SendMessageSoapIn>

In Soap Receiver Adapter

URL -- http://172.20.80.11/MMWebService/MMWebSrv.asmx

Soap action -- #SendMessage

The error I am getting now:

<SAP:AdditionalText>soap fault: Server was unable to read request. ---> There is an error in XML document (1, 97). ---> <SendMessageSoapIn xmlns='urn:MMWebSrvService'> was not expected.</SAP:AdditionalText>

Pls advice

Regards

[Former Member]

Henry may i know how did u do the mapping,

i mean to say, how did u created the Inbound Synchronous Message interface?

hope u have done it in the following fashion:

step 1: create Inbound Synchronous Message interface using the WSDL stored as external definition,

step 2: create ur own Sync Message interface

step 3: map them

As i can see the error

<SendMessageSoapIn xmlns='urn:MMWebSrvService'>

i think there shoud be double quotes ("")

<SendMessageSoapIn xmlns="urn:MMWebSrvService">

this was just a guess....u may try it

[Former Member]

Hi,

1. Do I need to Import Webservice WSDL as External Defination in XI.?

Yes you have to import as ED. Once you import you get your message type and then u can easily construct the interfaces for communication

2.Do I need to use only Soap Receiver Adapter in XI as it is Synchronous Web Service and XI can get response back from that System or also I need Soap Sender Adapter ?

Yes. SOAP Adapter right choice.

You need SOAP Receiver for receiving the response from SYSTEM A and SOAP Sender for Sending the same response to SYSTEM B.

Hope this helps you.

Hi All,

For Point 1 thanks.

For Point 2 -- I was saying as WebService in synchronous in nature.So I need to make Sync Inbound Interface in XI.

As RFC receiver adapter is able to get response back to XI does Soap Receiver Adapter is able to get response back to XI so that we do not require Soap Sender Adapter?

Regards

[former_member194786]

Hi,

I think you need the sender SOAP channel.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Sanjeev,

Pls see Sudeep response.

Hi Henry,

How are you invoking the webservice? For invoking you need to send some data to the web service. For this you need some sender adapter.

Ambili.

Hi Henry,

Yes you do need to.

2. Do I need to use only Soap Receiver Adapter in XI as it is Synchronous Web Service and XI can get response back from that System or also I need Soap Sender Adapter ?

It depends on which form you want the response to be send in. If you want the response to be send in file you need to use File adapter. Or else if its an IDOC use IDOC adapter.

Thanks and Regards,

Sanjeev.
