HTTPs sender adapter to pick file from a external HTTP file location

HI gurus
Please see the problem here. I need know hoe to configure the Sender HTTP adapter.
My Scenario-
A Flat file (non-xml but structured) sitting on an external https enabled web server. I need XI to go out and get this file on a regular basis (which will then be processed laterby the business person)
Thanks

Hi,
The FTP Adapter will do the job for you. Just create a File Communication Channel and change Transport Protocol to FTP. Since you mentioned that the file is non-xml, in the Message Protocol, choose, File Content Conversion.
Here are some blogs that will help you:

How to Call HTTP Sender Adapter of Other Scenar from HTTP Receiver Adapter?

Hi,
I have a requirement to call HTTP Sender Adapter of Other Scenario from HTTP Receiver Adapter?
or
call SOAP Sender Adapter of Other Scenario from SOAP Receiver Adapter?
i.e
SOME SENDER - > PI - > HTTP Receiver - > calling -> HTTP Sender -> PI -> SOME RECEIVER
SOME SENDER - > PI - > SOAP Receiver - > calling -> SOAP Sender -> PI -> SOME RECEIVER
if any one can provide me the screen shot for those SOAP / HTTP Sender or Receiver ADAPTER.
or Point me to Some article with Screenshots .
That would be appreciated with Point.

How to configure the Http sender adapter

Now i have look through the sap lib about the http sender adapter
and i know the url is
http://hostname:port/path?namespace=<...>
&interface=<...>&service=<...>&cmd=T&loaderXML=< message object >&end=yes
My questions are:
1)the path in the URL is "/sap/xi/adapter_plain", if not, what is it?
2)the message payload is right?
any reply is appreciated
Thank you very much

Hi Leo,
For a HHTP 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 your receiver say IDoc.
Check these links for the configuration part.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/64db4daf9f30b4e10000000a11466f/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/44/79973cc73af456e10000000a114084/content.htm
3. Do the Receiver Agreement for Idoc. HTTP doesnt 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.
https://media.sdn.sap.com/SDNTV/main.asp?mediaId=107
Refer to this link for adapter settings.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/0d/5ab43b274a960de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
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 . U have to give all the configuration details in the URL.
If you give me your mail id or if you can mail me at [email protected], i can send you a HTTP CLIENT.....In which you need to view the source code and change the username and password to send message to XI.

HTTP sender adapter and receiver adapter

Hi guys,
I have a scenario that I have to communicate with an HTTP server with XML over HTTP.
When the communication is opened by me I will use an HTTP receiver adapter and give the connection parameters.
a) Do I have to use a different HTTP receiver communication channel for each different type of XML that I want to send??
b) When the communication is opened from the HTTP server, they have to type the URL in order to invoke the correct scenario on my side, right? I know that I do not have to use an HTTP sender adapter. They have to call the http URL, followed by the sender business system, sender interface name/namespace etc.
That means that the URL in the format: http://XIhostname:port/ is not enough right?
Is there a way to figure out from the type of the XML sent which scenario will be executed in XI?
Because it is difficult for them to use different URL when they are sending me different type of XML's, i.e. different requests.
Evaggelos

>>Do I have to use a different HTTP receiver communication channel for each different type of XML that I want to send??
Yes,receiver adapter is linked to receiver agreement,if you have different inbound interfaces then it means you need to have diferrent receiver agreement,hence different receiver communication channels.
>>That means that the URL in the format: http://XIhostname:port/ is not enough right?
No,its not,there is a test tool on SDN called "HTTP test tool".just search for that and download on your desktop,it will help you generate the correct URL as well as test the scenario by sending sample HTTP request.
One thing you need to keep in mind is that HTTP scenarios don't require and sender communication channel or sender agreement.they only need configurations on receiver side
Thanx
Aamir

URL in HTTP sender adapter

Hi,
I have a scenario where I want to configure a HTTP sender adapter.
I have a HTTP PUT url of a 3rd party application from where the HTTP adapter should poll and pull the files into PI.
Is this possible? If yes, where and how do I mentioon the URL?
Please help!
Thanks,
Pratibha.

Hi,
That means, the sender aplication has to write a http://<hostname:port>/<path>?<query-string> type query?
Is there no other option?
Is it not possible with the SOAP sender adapter also?
Thanks,
Pratibha.

How to link individual picker view selections to download an individual file from a website or other location such as dropbox using Xcode?

Alright, the question I have has to deal with how to link an app to a website to download files. How, or is it even possible to link individual picker view selections to download an individual file from a website or other location such as dropbox using xcode. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but if anyone can help or can send a link to a place that can, I would greatly appreciate it!

I am not getting anywhere with deploying my application or
applet.
I have set up my bc4j project. It contains all my VO info,
links, application module. (proj a)
I then have another project with DbInfo in it(has all my rowset
info), Multiple Frames, and my Applet.java file.
Actually I have an Applet.java file and a Application.java file
because I was seeing if both/either worked. Anyway they seem the
same, except for that extra window that comes up when you run the
applet.
I follow the steps in the oracle directions (from earlier post).
And all seems ok. But at ---->
[*] Select the subdirectory under myhtml where your applet's HTML
file
is located, and enter the directory path of the 'staging'
directory you
created in step 3 above, if different from the default.</li>
[*]Select the HTML files that JDeveloper created to run your
applet.</li>
[*]Select all of the Java source files in your project that make
up the
applet.</li>
I have no HTML file associated with my applet, at least that I
know of.
So do I need to create one, or should it of been done
automatically.
Also, I trying to figure out what will be the best way to deploy
my project. Applet or stand alone application is what my first
choices have been so far. I have read that there is some issues
with applets being served from a different server than the
database. So a stand alone application was my front runner, but
I haven't gotten either way to work yet.

How to use the http sender adapter

Hi,
I'm trying to use the http sender adapter but not getting the result.
1) I've created the commnunication channel in Integration Directory.
2) I have my url:
http://<server>:56000/sap/xi/adapter_plain?service=BS&namespace=urn%3Acompany%3Apoc&interface=interface
3) When i copy that url in a browser i get a login prompt. When i log in i get a message that navigation is cancelled.
What steps do i need to do to use this url to send my xml message to the adapter engine. Do i need a special system user for this? Any other tools required? (i have httpclient but using that doesnt send messages to the adapter_plain; i think)
I feel i'm just missing one little thing, but what is it.
kr
Robert

Hello Team,
I added the user name & pwd to query string & trying to access from IE and still getting blank page.
Is this what is expected or there is something wrong in URL. I am able to send the XML from HTTP Test tool.
My URL is :
http://abc:50000/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=urn:xyz.com:A_To_ERP_Payment_balance_Request&interface=SI_A_CHK_balance_OUT&service=BC_XX_XXX&sap-user=myuser&sap-password=mypassword&sap-client=001&sap-language=EN
Please advice.

Http sender adapter: QoS is interpreted as Best Effort by PI 7.11

Hi
I have a scenario, where I receive an xml OrderResponse via an http sender adapter and I then map it to an iDoc which is sent to the backend system.
BUT: for some reason, PI thinks, that the Quality of Service is BE, and I get the error "Only asynchronous processing supported for IDoc adapter outbound processg".
I have checked both the http sender adapter, the sender agreement, the interface mapping, the service interface and the operation mapping and nowhere can I see, that best effort is selected.
The OrderResponse is sent from an external partner and is routed through a load balancer and an SAP web dispatcher before arriving to PI.
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
MIkael Lund

The external partner is sending the OrderResponse to this URL (external URL):
https://xxxxxx.xxxxxxxx.dk/sap/xi/adapter_plain?service=LM&namespace=http://xxxxxxxx.dk/XCBL/OrderResponse&interface=xCBLOrderResponse35Out
this URL is being translated to an internal URL:
https://yyyyyyy.yyyyyyy.dk/sap/xi/adapter_plain?service=LM&namespace=http://xxxxxxxx.dk/XCBL/OrderResponse&interface=xCBLOrderResponse35Out
So how should the external and/or internal URL be altered?
Thanks for a very quick answer by the way

HTTP Sender Adapter parameters

Hi,
I'm doing the HTTP to IDoc Scenario.
Receiving side is SAP ECC through receiver IDoc.
Third party system, they are asking to give the URL, so that they will include that URL in their program & it will post to SAP.
Can anybody guide me on this.. what parameters i've to get from the third party and what preparations i've to do in XI & ECC 6.0, so that i can give proper inputs to them.
And if sender CC is HTTP, any receiving IDoc CC configuration is required? Pls let me know the steps hw to proceed on this.
Thanks in Advance.
rgds,
balu

HI
Sender HTTP
You need to have a sap user for the third party in PI to post content on HTTP sender adapter channel
URL that you need to give to third party vendor

HTTP Sender Adapter Strange Problem After SP16 Patch!!!

Hi,
after upgrading to XI SP 16 I'm no longer able to create HTTP Sender Adapter based Communication Channels. I can create a Receiver Adapter but no Sender since the Sender button is greyed out in the UI. Does anybody have an Idea what could be the problem here?
Kind regards,
Heiko

HI Heiko,
As stated by bhavesh you cant have a sender http adapter, infact there is no need to have it.
If you want topost message to the integration engine using http protocol,you can directly send the xml message to the pipeline url of the integration engine.
http://<host>:<Abap http port>/sap/xi/engine?type=entry

HTTP Sender Adapter Response

Hi there,
Can I send a status code back to the sender of the HTTP request in case of a HTTP Sender Adapter ?
We need to send a response immediately to the Sender Application. The interface however is an asynchronous interface and a response with XI is only perhaps possible with BPM which would be rather complex for a small response code to be sent back ! Is there any possibility that some response is sent as soon as I receive a request on the SICF service ?
Amair

Hi Amair,
As Bhavesh suggested i also dont see a way you can do this unless by making the interface Synchronous. If you do so then it becomes so simple and u will not require any work arounds.

Enabling SSL for HTTP Sender Adapter

Hi Experts,
I'd like to have a step by step process in enabling HTTPS for Plain_HTTP Sender Adapter. I've already read the enabling HTTPS on SAP Help, but it does not provide much detail. Would the steps be the same for enabling HTTPS for Plain_HTTP Receiver which are:
1. Install the certificates using STRUST
2. Configure an RFC Destination using SM59
3. Call your RFC Destination in Receiver HTTP Adapter (not valid for http sender adapter)
The connection for setting up http is http://<hostname>:port/<path>?<query string>
but what about https? Would it be connecting to the webdispatcher first?
Hope you can help me,
Regards,

Hi,
as HTTP Adapter is on ABAB stack you will need to configure with STRUST.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/14/ef2940cbf2195de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
The URL should start then with https, but you could test with this sample client:

WCF Basic Http Send Adapter Observation (BUG in WCF Adapter ?)

Hi,
I have a request response WCF Basic Http send adapter with URL say http://dds.testservice.com/service
I send a request and get a response in my orchestration. Everything works fine.
I have a scope around the send receive shape in orch to catch excpetion of service call.
To test this I changed the URL to http://dds.testservice.com/service1 and I got the exception in orch and caught.
But if URl is changed to http://dds.testservice.com1/service i.e I am putting invalid server name . Note the 1 after com.
In this scenario the WCF Send adapter remains in Active state for ever till terminated.
Why is this behaving this way. How will orchestration ever know if the send failed if its always in active state and no response sent back to catch block.
Is it a bug in BizTalk WCF Adapter ?
Regards
Ritu Raj

What you're experiencing is not unexpected.
The server name and the service path are completely different and, technically, have nothing to do with each other. They are resolved separately, and in different places.
"service1" is failing immediately because the host is getting the request but, not recognizing "service1" is returning an error immediately.
"*.com1" takes much longer to fail to the Orchestration because of the stack of timeouts and default retries in the Send Port and IP stack.
So, no, it is not a bug.

How can I transfer files from one external HD (WD My Passport) to another external HD (Seagate Backup Plus)? WD drive was improperly ejected and Finder no longer recognizes it. Tried fixing with Disk Utility but failed.

How can I transfer files from one external HD (WD My Passport 2T) to another external HD (Seagate Backup Plus 2T)? WD drive was improperly ejected (although we did tell it to eject) and now Finder no longer recognizes it. Using MacBook Pro and I just upgraded to Yosemite before this happened. Was told at Apple Store to use Disk Utility to repartition, but it failed. It says to backup files and restore. But how do I backup files? Or would appreciate any other suggestions to repair drive.

You may drag & drop between external hds.
Should you run into trouble.
Take the exernal drive appart. Take out the harddrive. Try reading the data via a usb adapter. Put a household finan on the hd.

How to transfer or reassociate iTunes files from one external drive to another without reimporting?

Hello,
Hope someone can tell me an easy way to do this.
I have a massive itunes library which is presently split between my macbook and my external Lacie. I would like to transfer the files from the Lacie to a new external drive without reimporting all the files into itunes. I essentially would like itunes to recognise the path of the new drive instead of the files on the Lacie.
Any ideas?

I moved some movies and some seldom listened music (coped the files) into a folder on the Lacie drive. Then I reimported them to the main itunes library while holding down "option". This created a link to those files to the external. the files show up in my itunes but cannot be played unless i have the Lacie connected to them.
See this link.
