Connecting to Data via a web service: WSDL vs HTTP REST
I created an app and easily was able to get my data from my web service via connecting using the WSDL file. I then added RESTful to my web service and tested it via SOAPUI and then I created a copy of my original app and deleted the link to my service and then added it but this time using the HTTP connection and I was able to connect, I was able to get my value objects created via the xml parser. However, for some reason, my date fields are not working. I went into debug and it says they are invalid. I checked the xml for both the web service WSDL version and the HTTP RESTful and they look the same. So why all of the sudden does my dates not work?
SOAPui from web service
<endDate>2011-05-30T09:53:00-06:00</endDate>
RESTful address
<endDate>2011-05-30T09:53:00-06:00</endDate>
RESTful Flash
endDate:Date
WSDL Flash
endDate:Date
DS Version: 14.2.1.224 (14 sp1)
Job Server 14.2.2.5xx (14 sp2)
Configuration on the Web Service:
URL:
https://maxcvservices.dnb.com/Company/V4.0?wsdl
https://maxcvservices.dnb.com/FirmographicsProduct/V3.2?wsdl
WSS User: provided the name
WSS Pass: provided the pass
Timeout set to 500
All other settings are blank.
Does something need to be defined on the job server?
The WSDL does not even open on the workstation unless I use an adapter. I had found an article/help/note (something) that the web service in SAP DS does not work with HTTPS and it does with an HTTP Adapter.
I do not have access to Job Server, will have to schedule some changes if there is config that has to happen there.
Thanks for your input.
Cheers,
Ryan

Posting large amount of data via sync web service
Hi,
I'm trying to posting a large data via sync soap adapter and receiver as abap proxy. I'm getting log version status in SXMB_MONI when ever i try to post data >5k. Any idea how to trace it? If got timeout should there be an error message in SXMB_moni instead of log version? Thanks.Hi,
This message occurs when process on receiving system somehow is locked and does not return a response.
your receiving system is an ABAP system, goto sm66 ,sm12 in th abap system. In sm66 look for transactions which are running for very long and inside sm12 look for locks that interfere in processing of message on the abap system.
also maybe the response system was locked when time request was send and therfore no response was received.
also chk this blog :-

Limitation on data that can be fetched (ABAP RFC) via a Web Service?
Hi,
Is there any limit on the data that can be fetched via a Web Service (ABAP exposed as Web Service). I am trying to fetch PI monitoring data from ABAP Tables via a Web Service and there can be thousands of messages proceesed say in a day and what if user is provided the option of fetching messages for a specefic duration.
Please advise.
NehaHello my friend
If I understand your question correctly, there's an environment variable CPIC_MAX_CONV handles sessions between integration engine and adapter engine (ABAP and Java). By default, the value of this variable is 500, and you might want to increase it to 1000 at least, depends on system throughput. Recommended value from SAP for Production is 5000.
Hopefully it's helpful,

Can i receive XML via a web service into the PDF form??
hi all, I am able to send data to a server via a web service configured in my email submit button. Once the data has been received on the server, a reference number is sent back. My problem starts here as the reference number comes back into my browser and not back into the PDF. How can i get the reference number into the PDF? Thanks J
Thank you very much for your help.
I have another question if you don't mind.
I am trying to establish a WSDL in ALCD. I establish the connection successfully and
in return i receive predefined objects such as 3 numeric fields and a button.
I drag these objects onto a new form and try to execute but nothing happens.
The first 2 objects are supposed to accept input, send it via WSDL to a server that should return
a new value back to another predefined object when the button is clicked.
I have not response when the button is clicked. It is as if there is not connection at all.
If i try and change the button to a submit button and enter the WSDL manually it tries to connect but fails.
The WSDL does work if I test it using soapUI.
Would you have any idea why this is not working?
Thanks

Updating web service WSDL in Flash Builder 4
I have a web service added to my FB4 project. It is all working nicely but I cannot work out how to refresh the web service wsdl. In flex builder 3 there was a "Manage web services" option that let you do it but there doesn't appear to be one in Flash Builder 4.
How do I update the generated code?In FB 4.5, if you go to the Data Services view, and then right click on the data service (WSDL) you connected to, there is an option there to refresh the WSDL. It works very well for me.

Hi,
I'm currently trying to consume in VC a CAF Application Service exposed as a Web Service. I'm able to retrieve what I want but I have a problem with dates format.
The web service returns dates in the following format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:NN:SS
When I test my data service in VC it works fine. When I run my iview, VC swap the month and the day and compute the new date...
It's not just a problem of formatting with DVAL and DSTR because the date is already computed.
Example:
Date returned from web service: 2007-09-21T00:00:01
Date returned from test data service in VC: 21.09.2007
Date returned at runtime: 09.09.2008
VC understand 21.09.2007 not like DD.MM.YYYY but like MM.DD.YYYY so 21.09.2007 becomes 09.09.2008
I also tried to check on the server Regional and Language option but it doesn't come from there.
Have you ever faced this problem?
ThxHi,
It is a Web Service generated by NWDS (to expose my CAF Application Service)and deployed on the server.
The url si like http://<hostname>:<port>/mywebservice/Config1?wsdl
The Web Service runs correctly.
When I call a method of my web service to retrieve a list of objects (CAF Entity Services) and their attributes, it returns attributes of type String and Dates of type 'java.util.GregorianCalendar'.
It seems that VC doesn't correctly understand this type of Date at runtime

Retrieve data from a web service.
Hi,
I need to retrieve the data from Oracle CRM On Demand therefore I downloaded the web service "CustomObject15" from Oracle CRM On Demand then used the netbeans Tool to generate XML files then call Web Service "CustomObject15" then I created small java code to retrieve the data through a web service but the data did not retrieved.
Only retrieved "CustomObject15Data.CustomObject15Data@1be0799a"
Kindly, Can you help me and provide me small java code to the data through a web service "CustomObject15".
Best Regards.Hi,
just create a skeleton for the Web Service. In JDeveloper, create a new project and then use the "NEW" context menu option.
Navigate to "Business Tier" --> Web Services and select "Web Service Proxy"
In teh following, provide the WSDL reference to create the Java proxy. This gives you accss to the WS without having to parse the XML yourself

How to retrieve data from a web service
Hi
i am at very beginner level about web services.
I am searching for a simple example of retrieving data from a web services, but cant find.
How can i get xml data from a web service. i dont need to develop the web service it is already ready, i just need how could i fetch data from it.
Can somebody point out or give an example?

XML data from a Web Service sometimes missing fields I need, any ideas on a trap?
I get reports from our ERP via a web service to SSRS. Just got asked to make a tweak in a report and find that the WebService only sends data that is needed for this transaction. My issue is our entire system is based around EACH item we make.
New Trading Partner got Case Price. We put two of our items together in a box for them is all that happened.
Need to identify package column that had "ea" hard coded.
When I get a cs item there are more elements that identify conversion factor UOM etc. They are only sent down for CASE items. How do I trap for a column not being there 99.98555% of the time?
_conv = conversion factor. I only receive it with a 2,4,6 in it whe4n the item is not an each.
=iif(Len(Fields!tcibd003_conv.Value) >0 , Fields!inh4470_qshp.Value / Fields!tcibd003_conv.Value , Fields!inh4470_qshp.Value )
How do I trap for this? I tried Fields!tcibd003_conv.IsMissing but that didn't seem to work as expected.
TIAHello,
Sorry, I cannot get your requirment and report design structure currently. Can you post the following information to us ? It is benefite us for further analysis.
1. The fields in your dataset. You can post the dataset with sample data if it is convenient.
2. The Report design structure: Table or Matrix and Group inforamation
3. It seems that you want to filter the report data based on a expression, please post more details about the filter logic and expected result.

How to Use SOAPArray to Exchanged Data with a Web Service
The method of a prototype Web service I created is defined to take many parameters
and return an object of a user defined class. Furthermore, the user defined class
includes data elements of another user defined class and the Java ArrayList class.
This works with a Java client referencing the WebLogic created client.jar file
but I don't know how well it will work with a non-Java client. In particular,
with Perl which is the language that will be used by the developer who first will
test with the prototype.
In posts to this newsgroup use of "language-specific, generic containers" has
been discouraged and the "language-agnostic" SOAPArray recommended. I have searched
this newgsroup and the Web for examples of how to use a SOAPArray in a Web service
EJB to receive parameters and return results but found none.
Will someone refer me to an example or give an overview of how a Java Web service
EJB running in WebLogic 6.1 would use SOAPArray to get parameter values and return
results?
Also, I would like confirmation that it is best to use SOAPArray to exchange data
with a Web service to achieve the goal of a service accessible by any language.
Thank you.Replies in-line:
How are the structures, e.g. gltrans-workType, defined in the Web service?The structure is made up of nested Java Beans, but this does not mean that the
client for your web service has to be written in Java. The WSDL that I sent contains
everything that a .NET-based (or Perl-based, or Python-based, or VB-based, or
C++ based) Web Service Stack needs to correctly create all the data types in the
web services' signature! That's the beauty of XML Schema! It's programming language
independent :-)
In
other words, what definition in Java resulted in the WSDL statements?The WSDL wasn't produced by WLS 6.1, but it (WLS 6.1) can consume it.
What is the signature of method submitGLTransWorkAsJavaBean() in the
Web service?public void submitGLTransWorkAsJavaBean(GlTransactionsCpyType glTransactionsCpyType)
GlTransactionsCpyType is the outer-most Java Bean. WLS 6.1 does not generate
Java Beans for you, but it will use ones that you defined. See the Java Bean tutorial
on the Javasoft sitem for details on how to create a Java Bean.
Was the WSDL generated using the WL tools for creating a Web service?No.
Conclusion:
You asked for someone to provide you with an example of how to use SOAP array
in a WSDL, which is what the attached file contained :-) What you want to do now
is find a tool that can generate Java Bean code from this WSDL (Apache Axis has
a wsdl2java tool that should work), or create the Java Beans yourself. Afterwards,
create a WLS 6.1 Web Service a expose it for a Perl or .NET client.

Send a map of documents via Invoke Web Service
Hi,
I have one process with map of documents and 2nd process on other server, where input variable is map od documents too. How can I send this map between these processes via "Invoke Web Service" component? Simple datatypes I can.
PetrTake a look at Quick Start: Assembling a PDF document using the web service API
It shows how to create an input map for multiple documents.
But it sounds like you're asking how to create a WSDL that allows you to use an input map as an argument in a Web Service invocation. If so, take a look at the Assembler services WSDL. For 8.2, access

Deliver data to external web service possible in OBIEE 11g?
Hi all,
I'm looking into the possibility of "pushing" data from OBIEE and out to an external web service, e.g. through executing a scheduled report that instead of delivering the result on screen, it would call an external web service that would consume the generated data for storage in an external system.
Does anyone know if this is possible to implement in OBIEE 11g? (So far, all I've found is how to display data in OBIEE through consumation of web service(s), but I'd like to "push out" data to a web service from OBIEE).

Trying to pass xml data to a web service
I'm working on an Apex application that is required to pass data to a web service for loading into another (non Oracle) system. The web service expects two stings as input, the first string is simply an ID, the second string is an xml document. I generate an xml 'string' using PL/SQL in an on-submit process prior to invoking the web service. If I pass regular text for the second parameter, the web service returns an error message which is stored in the response collection and displayed on the page as expected. When I pass the the xml data, I get a no data found error and the response collection is empty. I have tried this in our development environment on Apex 3.1.2 (database version 10.2). I also tried this on our Apex 4.0.2 sandbox (with the same Oracle 10.2 database). I have found that once I have nested xml, I get the no data found message, if I pass partial xml data, I get the error response from the web service. Perhaps I am not generating the xml correctly to pass to the web service (this only just occurred to me as I write this)? Or is there an issue passing xml data from Apex to the web service? Any help will be greatly appreciated! here is the code I use to generate the xml string:

Error[Validate Data]: (XML) = Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1.. Cannot validate the XML! Data Exchange not accepted!Once I pass the entire xml string above, I get an Oracle-01403: no data found error. I have opened the web service in IE and pasted my xml input string and received a valid, verified result, so I am sure that the generated xml is correct. I have spoken with the web service developer; there are no log entries created by the web service when I submit the full xml string, so I suspect the failure is in the Apex application.
Thanks,
Christine
I should add that once I have nested tags in the xml, I get the Oracle no data found error ("<header xmlns=""> <stdXmlVer>2.0</stdXmlVer> <sendingUnit>10</sendingUnit> </header>"). I f I do not have nested tags in the xml ("<notification>[email protected]</notification> <creationDate>2011-12-20</creationDate>"), I get the web service response (error).
Edited by: ChristineD on Dec 20, 2011 9:54 AMOk, I think I'm getting closer to thinking this all the way through. When I have used clobs in the past, I've always used the DBMS_CLOB package. I use this to create a temp clob and then make the above calls. I had to go find an example in my own code to remember all of this. So, here is another suggestion... feel free to disregard all the previous code snippets..

end;This code will use the Database to construct your clob and then convert it back to a varchar2 for output to your webservice. This makes more sense to me now and hopefully you can follow what the process is doing.
You don't technically need the two varchar2(36767) variables. I used two for naming convention clarity sake. You could use just one multipurpose variable instead.
If you have any questions, just ask. I'll help if I can.
