<i> is there any other way to consume web services in ABAP</i>
you can use cl_http_client class to make your program to act as http client and post the soap message too webservice. This way you dont need to generate proxy, but you should know the soap message format.

Consume web service in ABAP proxy with SOAP header

Hi Thomas ,
I am trying to consume web service in ABAP . I have followed the procedure from one of your web blog <a href="/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/11/17/bsp-a-developers-journal-part-xiv--consuming-webservices-with-abap a Developer's Journal Part XIV - Consuming WebServices with ABAP</a> . (640 release).
I need to pass SOAP header along with SOAP body. As you mentioned I have used if_wsprotocol_ws_header interface to pass header but it is still failing.
Please see below code and please give some direction to fix the issue.
1.Create ABAP proxy for WSDL (http://ws.strikeiron.com/SwanandMokashi/StockQuotes?WSDL). It has created structures only for SOAP body.
2.Create Logical port
3.Create following program to call proxy
REPORT zproxy.
DATA: ref_stock TYPE REF TO zzco_stock_quotes_soap ,
      ws_header TYPE REF TO if_wsprotocol_ws_header,
      name TYPE string,

                      namespace = namespace
                      dom = xml_element ).
          xml_element ?= xml_element->get_next( ).

How to consume WEB SERVICES from ABAP ??

Q: How to consume WEB SERVICES from ABAP program??
     the point here is i am using SAP release 620 and the creation of proxy is out of scenario
     and also no XI.    Its only through ABAP program i need to consume one web service (its a HTTPS one ),
    Using cl_http_client... i tried it but i am totally confused of whats happening ???
Req some senior ppl advice on the same/approach.
any hints will suffice my way of approach...!!!
Please do put in your valuable advices..!!
Thanks in advance..!!!!

Hello Srinivas,
Following is the code for calling web service:
data: client type ref to if_http_client,
      host   type string value 'server url',
      service type string value '8080',
      path type string value '/sap/public/ping',
      errortext type string,
      proxy_service type string,
      scheme type i value 1.
call method cl_http_client=>create
exporting host = host
        service = service
     proxy_host = host
   proxy_service = service
   scheme        = scheme
importing client = client
exceptions
    argument_not_found = 1
    internal_error     = 2
    plugin_not_active = 3
    others             = 4.
case sy-subrc.
when 0.
     write 'Server reached successfully'.
when others.
     write: 'sy-subrc =', sy-subrc.
endcase.
Once you got the client object you can call following methods:
"Set the requrie URL for the web service you want to call. This is not WSDL anyway!!
cl_http_utility=>set_request_uri( request = client->request
uri =' url 2 be called ').
*Then you can call send method with proper inputs for sending request to WS
CALL METHOD client->send
Then you can use receive method for getting the response
CALL METHOD client->receive
*You can get last error in case of exceptions
CALL METHOD cl_http_client=>get_last_error
*Close the client object
CALL METHOD client->close
For more information on full code refer my link in previous replay.
Thanks,
Augustin.

Windows authentification while consuming web service from ABAP

Hi All,
We are consuming web service from ABAP, we have created client proxy in SE80 and configured logical port in LPCONFIG.
This one was working fine. Now we have added windows user authentification to access this service.
Now when I'm trying to regenerate this proxy in R/3 it is asking for user and password. When I enter these details this one is not working.
If I access this service direcly from internet explorer and I enter same user and password then I would able to access this service.
Could you please let me know how to handle this.
Regards
Vikram

The dialog that is produced by HTTP Destination object of the logical port is designed only for use within Classic Dynpro applications. There is no prompt produced when running in Web Dynpro. If possible assign a generic user within the logical port definition and this will be used automatically by all users.

Consuming Web Services with ABAP - WSDL

Hi All,
I Want to consume web service in abap, i found lot of documents,Here i am having data in the internal table i need to pass
it to wsdl file, The Web Service or Proxy generates a WSDL file. So this WSDL file can be consumed on ABAP Front and Encrypt the Data that is to be sent to the Banks.
I found the input and output, Where i can find the method generated or we need to create it
CALL METHOD io_clientproxy->XXXXXXXXXXXX
please let me have your valuable ideas
Thanks in advance,
Arun.

Hi Miguel,
I have not heared about SPROXY, Here i found some code,which calls a web service method and where it is from.
when i double click on my proxy it shows me some method.IF_PROXY_BASIS_INTERNAL~CREATE_FRAMEWORK
this is the one web service method. and i meed to pass the internal table data to WSDL file.
*-- create web service proxy class instance
TRY.
    CREATE OBJECT io_clientproxy
      EXPORTING
        logical_port_name = 'LP4'.
CATCH cx_ai_system_fault.
ENDTRY.
*-- call web service methods
TRY.
    CALL METHOD io_clientproxy->get_airport_information_by_is
      EXPORTING
        input = input
      IMPORTING
        output = output.
CATCH cx_ai_system_fault.
CATCH cx_ai_application_fault.
ENDTRY.
*-- text processing
output_string = output-get_airport_information_by_is.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF
    '<' IN output_string WITH '<' .
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF
'>' IN output_string WITH '>' .
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF
'xmlns=' IN output_string WITH 'xmlns:xsl=' .

Best practice for consuming web services

Hi
we are consuming web service in orchestration by "Add Generated Item".By using this option it creates 1 orch,1xsd file and some bindings.
we have different projects for schemas,maps and orchestration under our solution in visual studio.
Now i need to know that what will be the best practice for consuming web service in orchestration i mean in which project should i use "add generated item" (in orchstration project or in schemas project) coz it generates both 1 orch and 1
schema.
thanks

From a service orientation perspective you should abstract the service artifacts from the other artifacts. Otherwise it will be very difficult to update the service interface without affecting the other artifacts. For example you don't want to have to redeply
your entire application if only one field changes in the service you consume.
So I typically generate the items, remove the unnecessary stuff, and put them in a separate project.
Depending on the control you have over the services you want to consume, it would even be better to create another layer of abstraction. By that I mean create your own interface (schema) and map that one to the one the service exposes. This basically
is only necessary if you consume external services that are beyond your control. By abstracting the interface it exposes, you limit the impact of changes of that interface on the rest of your system. All changes are abstracted behind your own interface.
If you consume internal services, you can probably control the way the interface is defined. In a service oriented world all internal services expose a well known interface, based on the domain objects you have within your organisation.

Consuming Web Service from ABAP Web Dynpro

I have written program to consume KM Web Service through ABAP as well as ABAP Dynpro in SAP R/3 by calling Consumer Proxy.
When I run the program from SE38, it prompts me for user-id & password. If I pass KM Server user-id and password I am able to execute the web service successfully.
However, while I execute the same code through Web Dyn-pro , it does not ask for user-id and password & terminates with CX_AI_SYSTEM_FAULT : SOAP:1,007 SRT: Unsupported xstream found: ("HTTP Code 401 : Unauthorized")
I have created a Logical Port in R/3 & I am using this Logical Port while creating an Object of Consumer Proxy.
Kindly let me know how to resolve this issue.

The dialog that is produced by HTTP Destination object of the logical port is designed only for use within Classic Dynpro applications. There is no prompt produced when running in Web Dynpro. If possible assign a generic user within the logical port definition and this will be used automatically by all users.

To consume web service in ABAP is it required that server should be XI.

Hi ,
I am trying to connect to a webservice from netweaver 7.0 systemand it gives an error " Not configured as integration engine". Is it required to have integration engine to consume web service.
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay
You can consume webservices in ABAP but its better to use XI in mid to avoid point to point communication. Using XI you can have a central hub for all services you consume or publish

Problem at Consume WEB Service in ABAP

hello!!
I tell them my problem, is to create a web service from the SE80, which could be used properly.
Then there was a change of server, which migrated to the developments and the web service is recreation, but this can not be consumed.
now I need help, is where do I indicate that the basis so that they can return to consume web services, what services or settings should be activated.
any suggestion or help are welcome.
The ECC system is a 5 AS ABAP only.
from now, I appreciate any help or guidance I can get.

What is the problem? Are all the services active in SICF for web services and how is the web service being consumed is it through a wsdl file ?

Yes,
There is a place in SOAMANAGER to put userid and pwd for portal user. and this works.

Wrong data when consuming web service via ABAP

Dear all,
we tried to consume a web service via ABAP and used one of the various existing how-to papers from the internet in order to develop everything.
The development was not that difficult, but when we now execute our ABAP, we noticed that
- the first 100 returned rows from the webservice are completely correct
- then we receive 10-15 completely incorrect rows (empty fields, redundant lines, etc.)
- the rest of the data (60 records) is correct again
As we nearly all objects have been generated automatically via SE80, I do not really know where this problem might come from. We double checked the original data and there everything is correct.
Any ideas?
Thanks for your feedback,
Andreas
