HTTP receiver Adapter configuration

Question

Hi All,
I want to post an XML message using HTTP Receiver Adapter for my BPM scenario (Idoc to HTTP service)
The receiver has Oracle gateway and it expects message in following format.
HTTP Header
   Http–Version: HTTP/1.1
   Authorization: Digest username=”myusername”,
                         realm=”[email protected]”,
                         nonce=”dcd98b7102dd2f0e8b11d0f600bfb0c093”,
                         uri=”/dir/index.html”,
                         qop=auth,
                         nc=00000001,
                         cnonce=”0a4f113b”,
                         response=”6629fae49393a05397450978507c4ef1”,
                         opaque=”5ccc069c403ebaf9f0171e9517f40e41”
                         Content–length: 12345
                         Content–type: text/html
HTTP Body
   TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL=OXTA
   TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL_VERSION=1.0
   REQUEST_TYPE=SEND
   MESSAGE_ID=A1234567890ZZ0987654321
   MESSAGE_TYPE=XML
   MESSAGE_STANDARD=OAG
   TRANSACTION_TYPE=PO
   TRANSACTION_SUBTYPE=PROCESS
   DOCUMENT_NUMBER=12345
   PARTYID=9999
   PARTY_SITE_ID=8888
   PROTOCOL_TYPE=HTTPS–OXTA
   PROTOCOL_ADDRESS=HTTPS://www.me.com/servlets/oracle.ecx.oxta.
   transportAgentServer
   USERNAME=myusername
   PASSWORD=myloginpassword
   ATTRIBUTE1=
   ATTRIBUTE2=
   ATTRIBUTE3=
   ATTRIBUTE4=
   ATTRIBUTE5=
   PAYLOAD=<xml ... ...>
I think this is not a typical HTTP URL type of format, is it?
And I am not sure how I can build the message. Where do I put the parameters like TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL, TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, REQUEST_TYPE etc in the HTTP adapter?
Also is there any place where I can see the final actual XI message that is sent to HTTP service?
Any help will be really appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Rahul.

Hi Rajeev,
The receiver system should have the details about the content type it expects. I got that from the team who monitors our receiver system.
The HTTP Body of HTTP adapter is made up of PrologPayloadEpilog.
So I added the paramter list that receiver system expects as part of the Prolog. Refer to the HTTP body that I have posted in my earlier message. Out of that till ".....Payload=" is added to Prolog and XI then appends actual payload to it.
To be precise -
TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL=OXTA&TRANSPORT_PROTOCOL_VERSION=1.0&MESSAGE_TYPE=XML&MESSAGE_STANDARD=UNIVERSAL&TRANSACTION_TYPE=XXXE&TRANSACTION_SUBTYPE=ORDER_I&DOCUMENT_NUMBER=PO12345&PARTY_SITE_ID=ESAP_ORDER_I&USERNAME=***&PASSWORD=**&PAYLOAD=
So in the end it worked out well.
Cheers,
Rahul.
