How to access attachement in mail adapter

Hello,
i receive mails with an xml file attached with the mail adapter. Within the integration engine i can see that the adapter creates a message with two parts in the payload "MailAttachement-1" and "MailMessage". When i configure a file writer for my message i only get the content of the "MailMessgage" part (which contains only the sender, subject, mailtext ... and not the data i need (= "MailAttachement-1")). I tried several settings within the mail adapter configuration (user Mail Package, keep Attachements) -> no success.
How can i get access to the "MailAttachement-1" within the mapping?
Thanks
Peter

Hi,
If you want only the header data of the file (expecting you are having other data also) then it is not possible to do so without mapping. What I would suggest is to do the mapping for header and use this in ID.
So configure two receivers one for mail and another with file. In the receiver determination for the mail you use mapping and for file you dont use mapping at all. This would resolve your issue.

Hi
have a look at this
You can use Java/ABAP proxies to do this job for you..
Java Proxy >> will read the mail(with the attachments) with the help of Java APIs and send the message into XI ABAP Proxy >> for this you will have to first convert the attachment into a message and then you can proceed in the regular fashion.
Not all adapters can process attachments, I'm not sure why you are having trouble with using module processor in the mail adapter. Just check if the service pack that you are using supports this feature.
If you are on WAS 6.10 and above you can achieve this and there is an excellent weblog by Thomas Jung on this topic at

File attachement in mail adapter

Hi ,
I need to send users an error report which I have captured in the form of a file. Is it possible to attach this file as an attachement via mail adapter. I have been reading that the payload can be sent as attachment by specifying the interface namespace and interface name. But my requirement is to trigger the mail once the file has been completely written and not for every message. The reason being I could have 3000 records in the file and I dont want to send 3000 MAILS out but just 1 mail for the entire 3000 records...
Thanks,
Teresa

Hi Teresa,
I hope, I understand you right.
When you use the file-adapter for sending the file, you can without mapping send this file out to a mail receiver as attachment, there is nothing special to do.

Stefan

Remove Attachment in Mail Adapter Module

Hi!
My problem: I get an email with an attachment which I process in an adapter module for the mail adapter. With the resulting XML I set a new payload, but the old attachment still exists.
This gets to a problem when I route the message back to the mail adapter, he adds the old attachment to the generated email. Therefore the new email has two attachments: the old one and the new one, which should only be one attachment: only the new one.
How can I remove the old attachment? I found no function which solves this problem.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Michal,
thanks for the link.
When I import aii_proxy_xirt.jar in my NWDS, I can import the MessageSpecifier class. But I can't get an instance of it from the classes which I can access.
The only 'documented' usages of this class I found were codings for java proxies, so I'm not sure we can use this class in an adapter module.
In this cases they get the MessageSpecifier instance from the proxy bean, so maybe we can get it from the EJB, but this doesn't work with an adapter module (or I haven't found out how )
Hmm. It is a simple problem, but it seems difficult to solve
Best regards,
Daniel

Plain text and attachment in Mail Adapter (Receiver)

Hello,
we have to generate a mail in the mail-adapter with a specific text and an attachment.
The attachment is a document in pdf-format, that is generated inside an adapter-module out of the payload-document.
An additional text has to be added to the mail for the receiver in plain-text-format, like "Dear customer ... enclosed you will find ...".
Is it possible to mix plain-text and attachments in the mail adapter? Does anybody know how we can do that?
Regards,
Thorsten

Hi,
yes you can do it very easily inside the adapter module
if you're already using the adapter module then
you can just enhance it a little bit
you can add the pdf to the attachment section and
leave dear customer in the standard payload
you can even make it a little bit more dynamic
and create a module that will take the input from
the communication channel config (modules tab) - for example xml tag name in which you will specify
the dear customer (or any other text) and after this
the pdf creating can use the xml without this tag...

PDF attachment in mail adapter

Sending File as attachment using Mail adapter with naming convention

Dear All,
I am working on a scenario in which my sender file adapter is sending one file named 'ABC.ok' in one of the folders in application server. I have to send the same file with the same name to one of the folders at FTP and also to my customer at his email id.
I have used File Content onversion at the receiver side and has selected adapter specific attributes due to which the required file is getting generated at FTP folder with the same name as that of the source. But how to send the same file using the mail adapter by keeping same name as "ABC.ok". Kindly guide me out in this.
Regards,
NJ

what you need to do:
1) Select ASMA in Sender and receiver File CC...already done
2) Using the Dynamic Config UDF get the sender file name in the field Content-Type...for this you need to have a return statement in your UDF
3) now before pushing this file name to the Content-Type you have to append (concat)the actual type of the file content (xml, txt)
so your entire Content-Type node will have something like text/plain; name="abc.ok"

Q: How can I set the file name of a mail attachment?

Receive CSV attachment via Mail Adapter and process into ABAP proxy

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
1. Receive e-mail with CSV attachment
2. Process through Mail adapter (KeepAttachments = Yes in order to retain the CSV attachment)
3. Receive into ABAP proxy (with CSV attachment)
The next step is to read the attachment in the ABAP proxy and process the CSV attachment data into CRM.
The CSV attachment contains the data I wish to process - the body of the e-mail will not contain this information.
The problem I have is reading the attachment data in the proxy - not sure of the methods/class to call - anyone got any ideas ?
Another question is this the best way to do this and process the CSV attachment data ?
I know I could use the PayloadSwapBean to switch the payload to the attachment but then I am stumped with how the attachment is processed through PI 7.1 - how do you transform the CSV format payload into XML so PI will be able to process it through mapping.
Either option is viable - an answer to either question would be great.
1. How do you read the attachment data in an inbound ABAP proxy ?
2. How do you transform the CSV attachment data after the PayloadSwapBean from CSV to XML ?
Kind regards
Colin.

Hi Colin
As you are not interested in processing the body of email. Swap the payload to the attachment using the PayloadSwapBean
Change the content from CSV to XML using MessageTransformBean. Now pass this information to Proxy. You dont need to deal with attachments in proxy.
It is not possible to read attachment in server proxy because the class and interface you create will not have data type which can refer to an attachment processing interface in ABAP.
Thanks
Gaurav

Sending a File (XML or TXT) as attachment to Mail Adapter

Dear all,
In a scenario I'd like to pull a file by using 'File Adapter' and send it (without content change) as attachment to an Email recipient.
Is their any possibility to send a file by using Mail Adapter?
Do you have any similar solution in place, if so could you please share your experiences with me?
FYI, we are using XI 3.0, SP14.
I'll appreciate your time.
Regards,
K. Afsali

Hi Afsali,
//Is their any possibility to send a file by using Mail Adapter
it is possible.
There are a few steps to it though. You will have to convert the file you pick up into an XML file as XI can process only XML data.
After you are done with it, you will have to import a WSDL for sending mails. this WSDL is available on SAP Marketplace and it will have all details like from, to subject,and content. To get this WSDL just check this link,
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012006153200000361852004E/ximail30_xsd.txt
Just do the mapping of the respective fields and the information mapped to the content field will be passed as the content of the mail.
Just check thise links out,it will surely help you

How to access Payload in XI Adapter Module

Hello,
I have to enhance a adapter module in xi very urgently. Target is to access a node of the XML payload and retrieve the corresponding value.
This is how my document looks like:
<mt_test>
     <element1>
          <> </>
     </element1>
     <element2>
          <LOG_NO>4711 </LOG_NO>
     <element2>
</mt_test>
I need now access the element <LOG_NO>. This can only appear one time in the whole xml document. My code that I did so far (inside the process method) to retrieve this element is like this:
XMLPayload xmlpayload = msg.getDocument();
     DocumentBuilderFactory factory = null;
     factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
     DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
     Document document = builder.parse ((InputStream)xmlpayload.getInputStream());
     Element rootNode = document.getDocumentElement();
<and now I have no clue anymore:-/>
May you give me an example how to access the node <LOG_NO> and save the corresponding value in a String variable?
I would be really thankful.
Greetings and thanks in advance,
Tobias

Hi,
>>>found no solution with PI Standard Import to support FTP inside the Adapter Module
why would you? file adapter supports FTP - so you don't need it
>>>In order to use FTP library, is there any standard library available or supported by SUN.
you can use any java ftp client available on google
