HTTPS configuration for SOAP adapter

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement where we need to send the request to the target URL with https protocol.

We have raised a request to configure the XI server for HTTPS.

HTTPS has been configured on both ABAP stack and J2EE stack.

But we could not find the HTTPS option in the drop down list of transport protocol in receiver Soap adapter.

For this do we need to do any setting changes on the XI server after the configuration?

Thanks,

Jyothsna .

Hi Jyothsna,

Whenever a adapter is configured in the XI server and for the specific parameters to be reflected in the communcation channels in ID.

The specific basic component (.tpz file) has to be imported into IR. Once this is uploaded, you can check for the attributes (in your case HTTPS) in the AdapterMetadata under SAP BASIS SCW.

Hope this helps you.

transport protocol option shows only HTTP but it includes HTTPS too as u specify that in ur URL...

HTTP

HTTPS without client authentication

HTTPS with client authentication

u get for sender SOAP adapter but I think urs is Receiver

Hi,

You need to setup SSL layer for HTTPS endpoint.

Possible HTTP security levels are (in ascending order):

HTTP without SSL

HTTP with SSL (= HTTPS), but without client authentication

HTTP with SSL (= HTTPS) and with client authentication

Regarding message level you can encrypt the message using certificates.

For both of this basis team has to deploy the releavant certificates in XI ABAP Stack or Java stack.

Generally if the scenarios are intra company we dont use any transport level or message level security since the network is already secured.

Check the following links.. you will get the information all about the securities...
