HTTP Adapter

[Former Member]

Hi

Can anyone tell me, why it is that, we can configure our HTTP adapter as a Reciever only?

The Sender radio button is disabled when we select HTTP Adapter.

Thanks and regards

Hi

Mithlesh.......

No Sender agreement or sender communication channel is required since http client connnects to Itegration Server(ABAP) directly. and the HTTP request should contain all relevant header info about the sender.

Http adapter has a sender service in

http://<server>:<port>/sap/xi/adapter_plain

I hope your querie is resolved

Cheers

Mithlesh,

It is not only for Http, but also for IDoc you can't set sender channel because they are already defined as services. These services will be constantly listening for http requests (like a webserver) and IDocs on the port.

Hi,

HTTP adapter is to be configured only for receiver side. For sender XI is going to be inbound for sure and also Integration Engine has got a HTTP service in itself. So there is no need for sender configuration through the adapter Engine . The sender has to just send the request to the specified URL to give it to Integration Engine Pipeline. For further details see this SAP help link

Hi Mithlesh,

since HTTp adapter resides in Integration eNGINE and not in Adapter engine, you dont need any sender agreement and hence no need for sender communication channel.
