Hi! I need steps for HTTP Receiver adapter

Question

My scenario is like this:
HTTP(HTTP Sender adapter)->XI->File(File adapter).
For this Iam sending the data as payload in the body of HTTP. Now What am i going to do is the opposite of above scenario:
File(FileAdapter)->XI->(HTTP Receiver Adapter)HTTP.
I would like to know what are the steps to transfer a file(xml) from File adapter to XI and from there to Http.
How to send the data using File adapter. Please suggest me some steps.
Hoping a quick response!!!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Datta,
For a HHTP -> XI -> FILE Scenario:
DESIGN:
1. Create DataTypes for source and Destinations. Create elements for all the text fields of your HTTP Client so that they can all be mapped into the destination file
2. Create MessageTypes for the two datatypes.
3. Create Message Interfaces. The One for HTTP is the sender, Asynchronous ( as no response is expected) and one for File is receiver, asynchronous.
4. Do the mapping. It will be mostly a one to one mapping of the fields.
5. Create the Interface Mapping.
Configuration:
1. Import your Business System under your Configuration Scenario.
2. Create 2 communication channels. One for Http as a sender and one for File as a receiver.
Check these links for the configuration part.

3. Do the Receiver Agreement for file. HTTP doesn’t need a sender agreement.
4. DO the Receiver Determination and Interface Determination.
Weblog which talk about the same scenario:-
/people/sriram.vasudevan3/blog/2005/01/11/demonstrating-use-of-synchronous-asynchronous-bridge-to-integrate-synchronous-and-asynchronous-systems-using-ccbpm-in-sap-xi - although this weblog is
aimed at explaining the sync-async bridge.. Sriram has taken http-to-file scenario as the example
(use case) and explained it...
Check this SDN tv demo, it has detail of HTTP adapter setup.

Refer to this link for adapter settings.

You should also have a HTTP client to send message to XI. In the connecting parameters to XI u have to use the URL in the pattern mentioned by Alex. U have to give all the configuration details in the URL.
