How To: External Webservice -- XI

Hi Experts,
I've finished the HowToGuide "How To... Integrate XI an BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s" and it works.
Now I need a HowToGuide for the other side of XI.
Webservice (3rd Party) --> XI --> BI
XI --> BI works now and I need some explanations for the other side of this szenario.
Can anybody help me please, a HowToGuide would be appreciated.
Thanks and regards,

How To : Call External Webservice from BPEL and pass SOAP Message to the WS

Hello All-
Greetings to all BPEL gurus. I am currently facing difficulties in calling an External Webservice from my BPEL Process and passing SOAP Message to it. The details are below:
1. The BPEL process, using database polling feature of DB Adapter, will get the records from the database.
2. Transform the message
3. Call the External Webservice and pass the transformed message as the input to it. However the Webservice expects the BPEL process to send SOAP headers in the input message.
I am struggling on how to put the transformed message within a SOAP envelope in the BPEL process.
If anyone had similar requirements and have successfully been able to send SOAP messages from BPEL process to an external webservice, kindly let me know.
Also if there is some kind of documentation or any link in the forum that I can refer, please let me know that as well.
I am new to Webservice integration using BPEL and would really appreciate your help.
Thanks In Advance

Dibya

Hi Dharmendra,
I am trying to send a SOAP message from my BPEL process to a web service. I have a complete SOAP message in a complex variable defined in the wsdl for the partnerlink (web service). My problem is that when I invoke the partnerlink it fails even though the content shown in the BPEL console looks valid.
I have set up obtunnel to see what I am actually sending out from BPEL. You mention that BPEL creates the SOAP envelope automatically.
I think that my problem is a result of this automatic SOAP envelope that BPEL is creating. Do you know if there is a way to turn it off?
This is what I see in the TCP monitor, please note the double SOAP env:Body:
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <env:Body> <RCMR_IN000002NR01 xmlns="urn:hl7-org:v3" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:wsa="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/addressing" xmlns:wsse="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-secext-1.0.xsd">

How I can wire an extern WebService to BPEL?

I have started to work with BPEL PM (2.0.10) bbpelz 0.0.95. Now I would
understand how I can wire an extern WebService (like a PLSQL WebService
created in JDeveloper from a package) to BPEL.
Therefore I look for Examples from BPEL - AmazonFlow or GoogleFlow. Then I set the ProxySettings in the orabpel\bin\obsetenv.bat. I've got the error:
BPEL validation failed.
[bpelc] BPEL source validation failed, the errors are:

e are not referenceable from schema document 'http://soap.amazon.com/schemas3/Am

'soapenc:Array' needs to be changed. If this is the correct namespace, then an
appropriate 'import' tag should be added to 'http://soap.amazon.com/schemas3/Ama
zonWebServices.wsdl'.
Who can help me, make run the samples AmazonFlow and GoogleFlow?
Where can I find more informtions about the Problem, how I can wire a WebService created in JDeveloper to BPEL? I can deploy the WebService from JDeveloper on the BPEL-OC4J-Server- but what have I to do or to integrate in order to see my WS in BPEL console and have access to it in bpel designer?
Regards Sabine

Hi,
I followed your suggestion and linked my BPEL service to a WebService through the WSDL that is remotely accessible as in "{color:#0000ff}http://localhost:8988/scratch/kibailey/view_storage/kibailey_SOA/.jdev_user_home/mywork/OptyEventsService/Model/classes/EventsAMService?wsdl{color}" instead of directly accessing the WSDL file. This Webservice is of course deployed at the above mentioned server and location and the server is up.
But when I run my BPEL process, I still get this message "{color:#ff0000}Reference EventsAMService does not exist as wire target{color}". I have cross checked other WSDL dependencies and they are fine.
I am currently using JDev 11g drop 6 through ADE (linux). I have exposed a BC4J component (Application Module) as a WebService.
Please let me know of any resolution.
With regards,
Kishan

How can we call a external webservice from sandboxed webpart?

Hi,
I need to call an external webservice from sandboxed visual webpart in 2013. And that webpart would be used in office-365 site. Please let me whether it is possible or not.
Thanks,
Arindam

Sandboxed solution server code can't call an external web service. There are ways to write a sandboxed solution that calls a web service using client side code. Here's a sample of a silverlight application deployed via the sandbox that can call
an external web service.

Consuming external webservice in SAP

Hi All,
Wjile Consuming external webservice that is .NET webservice in SAP I am getting the error "Proxy generation terminated: WSDL
(<extension> not supported)". Please can anyoone tell me what would be the issue and how should I resolve it.
Thanks in Advance,
Meenu.

The SAP version that we are using is ECC 5.0. And the URL that they have given me to consume has some .svc extension.

How to call Webservices in XI

Hi all,
I hav a scenario where i need to call a third party webservice. its not the standard webservice scenario as given in the blogs. There is a webservice that I need to call from XI .
Need your inputs in how to do this..
Regards,
Vinithra

Hi,
    Please elaborate on your requirement as you have mentioned that it is not a standard webservice requirement.
    If you need to call a third party webservice then following are the steps to be performed:
      a) Get the external webservice wsdl, import it in IR.
      b) Create a inbound service interface and select the message type from the imported wsdl.
     c) Use the endpoint details from the wsdl and configure accordingly in the receiver type soap channel.

BPEL or OSB consume external webservices

Hello all ,
After I look over documentation and - Getting Started With Oracle SOA Suite 11g R1: A Hands-On Tutorial: Fast-Track Your SOA Adoption: Build a Service-Oriented Composite Application in Just Hours - still is not clear how can I consume a web-service hosted on other system - for example Websphere or SharePoint .
I had a example one web service register
<service name="DonateBeanService">
<port binding="tns:DonateBeanPortBinding" name="DonateBeanPort">
<soap:address location="http://localhost:8888/TestTopDown/services/DonateBeanPort"/>
</port>
</service>
on my WAS CEE server .
When I tried to made a business service in OSB - I imported the wsdl - create a new business service -add monitor capabilities but the call is not made to the service endpoint .
Also inside BPEL how can I invoke a external webservice .
Can anyone help me please with some points or advices ? What is wrong in the approach ? In the end OSB capabilities should allow me to integrate with other systems very easy .
Many thanks in advance for all .
And a HAPPY NEW YEAR .
Best regards,
Stefan

how can invoke from inside a BPEL the same service ? or in the BPEL is better to have only local web-services BPEL can also invoke the same service. To know more about BPEL, please refer -
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bpel/overview/index-088867.html
Post BPEL related questions in BPEL forum -
BPEL
And the last one - if I need to read information from a file and send parameters to this webservice - how I will do it on the OSB ?Create a messaging type/Any XML proxy service in OSB with FILE/FTP transport (as per your requirement). In message flow of proxy service you may use XQuery/XSLT/MFL to transform the content of the pulled file into the XML required for calling web-service. Use communication actions to call business service from proxy service message flow. You may like to refer -

Consume external WebService inside BW

Hi,
does anybody know how to consume an external webservice inside BW ?
Thanks,
Max

You have two options:
1. Make use of XI.
2. Use the XML interface in BW.
refer:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21d8aa90-0201-0010-5e83-a3798b9a5ee0
this document shows u to transfer XML data to BW.
If you are on BI7 then create a RDA XML datasource and integrate your web service to that:

SchedulerTask and external webservice problems

Hi,
I need to build an application that fetches some report from an external webservice (Axis) on the net and stores some data in a portal database.
However, I picked the KM-residing SchedulerTask to solve this issue because you can run it just like cron-jobs and the like.
In my SchedulerTasks code - it has been tested standalone and does a great job fetching data from webservice - the calls fails due to a "connection refused", see stacktrace way below.
My portal is a development machine and is therefore talking to and with everyone, fully open, un-proxied and should not hinder me from accessing such a webservice, I think.
I checked the webservice URL (wsdl-ended) is accessible from within my SchedulerTask by opening a simple java.net.URL on it which worked really nice.
My questions are:
- Did someone experience a similar behaviour and if so how did you solve this?
- Is there any additional configuration needed to make portal/KM speak with external webservices?
- Any other thoughts?
Thanks for your help!
regards,
Christian

For iSight help, consider http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
In addition to testing with iMovie, you can also test video recording with QuickTime Pro if you have it.
Because you have similar problems with Photo Booth when using another camera, you may be rushing Photo Booth. Consider the suggestions offered here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7018319&#7018319
If apps other than Photo Booth record properly but you do not want to use one of those that work properly, it is possible that a corrupted Photo Booth Preferences file is causing your problem. Quit Photo Booth (and all other applications) and throw away the Photo Booth Preferences file (com.apple.photobooth.plist) from your Home / Library / Preferences folder. A new preferences folder will be generated when you restart Photo Booth to test whether it works now.
If resetting preferences did not help but you still want to use Photo Booth, reinstalling the Photo Booth app might help.
If no app works properly, see your Apple Authorized Service Provider for professional help.

Error at creating Client Proxy of external webservice (WSDL)

Hi Experts,
I try to create a Client Proxy Object out of an external webservice. Here is the WSDL URL:
[http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConvertor.asmx?wsdl]
I try to create it with this URL and then I get the error message
Not implemented
Exception of class CX_SIDL_INTERNAL_ERROR
I found two other threads with a similar problem:
cunsuming external webservice in ABAP
Problem while consuming external webservice
But there is no solution that worked for me. In the first thread it is mentioned, that the code between
<wsdl:binding name="XXXXHttpGet" type="tns:XXXHttpGet">
and it's closing brackets should be removed in a local file. I tried that and was able to create a client proxy object out of this local wsdl-file. But then I called the webservice with the folling coding for testing:
report z_currency_converter.
data: convert type ref to zzzco_currency_convertor_soap.
try.
 create object convert
exporting
 logical_port_name = 'Z_LP'
catch cx_ai_system_fault .
endtry.
 data: output type zzzconversion_rate_soap_out .
 data: input type zzzconversion_rate_soap_in .
 input-from_currency = 'EUR'.
 input-to_currency = 'USD'.
try.
call method convert->conversion_rate
exporting
 input = input
importing
 output = output
catch cx_ai_system_fault .
catch cx_ai_application_fault .
endtry.
write output-conversion_rate_result.
The same code worked fine in another system. In this "older" system could also create a client proxy, I think because it has a newer Support Pack version.
SAP says the following:
The problem is that this WSDL uses two bindings different from SOAP
binding which is not in conformance with Basic Profile 1.1 -
http://www.ws-i.org/Profiles/BasicProfile-1.1.html#WSDLBINDINGS .
I looked in the document, but I do not know where the problem in the WSDL file exactly is. What have I to change? Or can somebody give me the URL of a free webservice, that you used for creating a client proxy with a new support pack standing? In the "old" system there is not yet the SOAMANAGER but in the one where it doesn't work.
I hope you have an idea.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Best Regards,
Ingmar

I think it is the problem of version.U need to ask SAP to release some patch levels to correct it.
