Hi AshishDatar:
    For you question you want to get data from data base using web service connection. Here I can give you some suggestions
1.Write a web service to retrieve data from data base, then use Xcelsius u201Cweb service connectionu201D under u201CManage Connectionu201D section to consume the service and get the data from data base to spread sheet.
2.Xcelsius also provide you a tool to generate web service with easy way (without coding). (Suggested)
Using flynet, you can get flynet installation file under Xcelsius installation folder u201CXcelsius\Connectivity\Flynet Webservice Generatoru201D for more information about flynet please refer to
http://myxcelsius.com/2008/11/07/generating-web-services-for-xcelsius-using-flynet-web-service-generator/
Here is also a demo on how to use  web service conneciton with Xcelsius + Flynet

  • How to use web service consumer as a source to connect to Salesforce?

    I see a lot of articles and mapping xmls on how to use web service consumer but as a newbie I am not able to view the object schema from my salesforce enterprise WSDL after importing it in Informatica designer as a source. My enterprise wsdl has operations like create, retrieve, upsert, delete etc so if I want to read data from account then could someone guide me on how to use the web service consumer to view the fields after importing the wsdl.  After importing the wsdl and selecting the operation say create, the columns (ports) displayed shows different groups but it doesn't list the object fields? what am I missing here? And what is the operation to read data from Salesforce is it "retrieve" from the entripse wsdl? As a newbie on this, I appreciate any inputs on this topic.

  • How to use web services in JSF app

    I am unsure if this is the right forum for this question. Let me know if it is not - and where I should go.
    Anyways, I'm building a JSF web app, in which there is a datatable page displaying some business data. The app is going to be deployed and run in the customer's web server, but the data to be displayed is from the business solution provider's database. Currently the provider supplies web services to retrieve the data. So, my task is to call these web services from my JSF page, get and display the data.
    I've never used web services before. Can someone give me a quick start, as what I need to know to use these web services, and how to use them in coding terms. I googled the web quite a bit and finally decided to turn to SDN forum.
    Thanks!

    Try SuperWebservice at http://www.acelet.com/super/LimpidDebugger/.
    Programming is not required. It will list all available services for you.
    You call webservice by clicking. You call webservice visually.

  • How to use web service with ABAP Web Dynpro

    Hi.
         do you know, how to web service with ABAP Web Dynpro?

    Hi,
    If you have a webservice ready with you then you can generate a proxy from SE80 and you can use that. You just have to create a port and assign to that generated proxy(CLASS) and you are good to go.
    Let me know if you need more information.
    Thank You,

  • How to use web service in ECC 6.0

    Hi.
    I found some WSDL in "SDN ES Workplace".
    Anybody know how to use this WSDL ?
    For example, I want to use 'Query Sales Order' web service and I found WSDL in "SDN ES Workplace".
    What's next step to use this web service ?
    Regards, Arnold.

    Hi Austin,
    Link provided for mySAP ERP Enterprise Service Package ECC-SE 600, does not work. My company is SAP customer and I am SDN member.
    Do I need some special login or membership to download ES packages?
    I also understand that I can access the Enterprise Service from the ES Workplace (implementation) and for that I have to Apply For an Account. I applied for an account at this link https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/esareg .
    After applying for an Account should be getting an email with user Id/password OR I can use the my Service Market Place ID?
    Tried entering the my service market place Id, does not work.
    Thanks,

  • How to use web service as data source for forge or endeca ?

    hi,
    is there any way to use webservice as data source in pipeline ?
    i have requirment to get data from web service and dump it in endeca. for this i need some idea on how can be this achieved. is it possible to do so?

    Crawling is part of the CAS, which is kind of the data ingest process in Endeca as you would know. There are a bunch of OOTB Crawlers available like FileSystem based, XML Crawlers, etc., and there could be a case where you have to write your own and thats what I am suggesting because the XML crawl thats OOTB expects a specific format which isnt really mentioned in the Documentation. Please refer to CASDevGuide for more information. CAS, PlatformServices and ToolsAndFrameworks should be running when you start off with Endeca, you can see that from
    ps -ef | grep java
    on your machine

  • How to use web services with Dynamic url behaviour

    Hi,
    IView created by me currently uses some web services whose url behavior is static but i want to give a dynamic url behavior. i.e. i want to use the url which user provides. So here are my questions
    1. How I shall assign the url supplied by the user to IView?
    2. If I want to set some config variables during runtimes how I shall do it?
    Thanks in advance,
    Vishvesh

    Hi,
    1. I'm guessing you mean the webservice's url the user provides is pointing to an identical webservice to what you used to create your proxy... otherwise I think it will be very hard to do (I can imagine creating the proxies using the wsdl tool in run time or using code dome.. but that can't be what you want, right?).
    So if what you wanted is to use the same web service with a different url, then the web service's proxy class you created has API for doing this in code! (it inherits it)
    2. you can't, simply since the portal application doesn't ever use the config file... it isn't even deployed to the portal... so dynamic properties are "out of the question" here, sorry... see 1 again

  • How to use Web Serivce for not jsr 172 phone

    Hi:
    Is anyone know, how to use web service for phones that only have standard J2ME package installed (without jsr 172 web service packagenstalled)?
    thank you

    Hi,
    I think you need to write the code for this from scratch (built on top of existing HTTP functionality). There may be open-source J2ME code you could use. I've never tried this so I'm afraid I don't know any more. But maybe that is what you were asking... i.e. does anyone have code that does this already...

  • Using web services with flash cs3 and actionscript 3.0

    Hi,
    I want to use web services under flash cs 3 and by using as

    It was possible with as 2.0 to do it easily thanks to the
    webservice Connector.
    But I can't find how to use web services under flash and as
    3.0.
    I thought web services took part of the many improvements
    flash cs 3.0 contain, but obviously it does not:(
    Can anybody help me to use webservices with flash cs 3 and as
    3.0?
    Thanks in advance,

    Dark Armor, You mentioned the book Adobe Flash CS4 Professional Classroom in a Book, which I have.  I could not find anything in there.  Did you mean to say Actionscript 3.0 for Adobe Flash CS4 Professional?  I do have that book and it looks like there is information there.  Just wanting to make sure that you meant what you said.  Thanks!

    <p>I am struggling to get the list of values for a dynamic parameter of a report.</p><p>I am using Java Web Services SDK ...

    <p>Your assumption is correct. We are trying to get the LOVs from the Crystal Report.
