Is it possible to call web service in workflow?

Hi All,
Can any one let me know is it possible to invoke or use webservice in workflow? and also want to know is it possible to syndicate few attributes using webservice?
Thanks
Rajeev

Hey RR,
is something you are looking for MDM Enrichment controller, since you mentioned abt BOBJ data services / Syndication / MDM Workflow.
If not could you please explain about the flow that you are looking for: (for example)
MDM Import --> MDM Workflow --> Syndication --> and so on.
thanks,
Alexander.

Yes, SAPHTTPA (runs on application server) and/or SAPHTTP (runs on front-end pc), one of which, is required for HTTP communication. So far, nothing too elaborate as far as SOAP goes, but the logic is simplistic. Here's some sample code:
DEST = 'SAPHTTPA'.
TRANSLATE HOST TO LOWER CASE.
MYURL = 'wssrvTest/Service.asmx/GetByOrderItem'.
CONCATENATE HOST MYURL INTO MYURL.
REQUEST_HEADERS-DATA =
 'Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'.
APPEND REQUEST_HEADERS.
CLEAR REQUEST_HEADERS.
*........Convert Order Number to External Format........................
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
 EXPORTING
 INPUT = ORDER
 IMPORTING
 OUTPUT = ORDER.
*........Convert Item Number to External Format.........................
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
 EXPORTING
 INPUT = ITEM
 IMPORTING
 OUTPUT = ITEM.
*........Convert Material Number to External Format.....................
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
 EXPORTING
 INPUT = MATERIAL
 IMPORTING
 OUTPUT = MATERIAL.
CONCATENATE 'sOrder=' ORDER
 INTO REQUEST_BODY-DATA.
APPEND REQUEST_BODY.
CLEAR REQUEST_BODY.
CONCATENATE '&sItem=' ITEM
 INTO REQUEST_BODY-DATA.
APPEND REQUEST_BODY.
CLEAR REQUEST_BODY.
CONCATENATE '&sMaterial=' MATERIAL
 INTO REQUEST_BODY-DATA.
APPEND REQUEST_BODY.
CLEAR REQUEST_BODY.
CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_POST'
 EXPORTING
 ABSOLUTE_URI = MYURL
 RFC_DESTINATION = DEST
 BLANKSTOCRLF = 'X'
 TABLES
 RESPONSE_ENTITY_BODY = RESPONSE_BODY
 REQUEST_ENTITY_BODY = REQUEST_BODY
 RESPONSE_HEADERS = RESPONSE_HEADERS
 REQUEST_HEADERS = REQUEST_HEADERS
 EXCEPTIONS
 CONNECT_FAILED = 1
 TIMEOUT = 2
 INTERNAL_ERROR = 3
 TCPIP_ERROR = 4
 DATA_ERROR = 5
 SYSTEM_FAILURE = 6
 COMMUNICATION_FAILURE = 7
 OTHERS = 8.
CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0. "more appropriate msg goes here
LOOP AT RESPONSE_BODY.
 IF RESPONSE_BODY+0(7) <> '<string' AND
 RESPONSE_BODY+0(8) <> '</string' AND
 RESPONSE_BODY+0(5) <> '<?xml'.
 SPLIT RESPONSE_BODY-DATA AT '=' INTO FIELD_NAME FIELD_VALUE.
 TRANSLATE FIELD_NAME TO UPPER CASE.
 CASE FIELD_NAME.
 WHEN 'HEIGHT'.
 HEIGHT = FIELD_VALUE.
 WHEN 'WIDTH'.
 WIDTH = FIELD_VALUE.
 WHEN 'LENGTH'.
 LENGTH = FIELD_VALUE.
 WHEN 'WEIGHT'.
 WEIGHT = FIELD_VALUE.
 WHEN 'QTY'.
 QTY = FIELD_VALUE.
 ENDCASE.
 ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Hope this helps...

Is it possible to call web services in adobe connect application?

I have facing one security issue in adobe connect
Error Description is "Security error accessing url
Unable to load WSDL. If currently online, please verify the URI and/or format of the WSDL (http://xxxxxx/WebService.asmx?wsdl)"
Is it possible to call web services in adobe connect application?
Thanks and regards
Selvan

OK, so it's a plain Flex security issue, not related to the Connect application, probably due to crossdomain misconfiguration.
Please read http://www.adobe.com/devnet/articles/crossdomain_policy_file_spec.html and http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security.html
You may want to ask for help in the proper Flex forum. Also, download Tour de Flex and look at the example under "Flex Data Access3 -> "WebService".
Try also to look at this thread http://forums.adobe.com/thread/223999

Hi Friends,
It it possible to call web service from SAP 4.6 c..If yes how
Thanks in Advance.
Murali Krishna K

It is not possible to directly call a web service from SAP 4.6c.
Indeed, web service enablement is available as from Web AS 6.20, thus as from SAP R/3 4.7
So as described above, the solution is indeed to make use of PI(XI) for this.

Is there a way to call web service from 2 servers??

Hi,
I need to know if its possible to call web service from 2 different servers without having load balancer??? I mean, if one of the server has heavy work on, then it should call web service from the other server.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.

Hi,
WebLogic Cluster has this feature ( Load Balancing & Failover ). If you will deploy your WebService to a WebLogic Cluster and then If you will put a Proxy in front of it like (Apache)...Then it is Possible.
<h3>What All You Need To Do ? ...... as following</h3>
Step1). Create a WebLogic Cluster (minimum two ManagedServers)
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/04/28/weblogic-clustering-in-remote-boxes/
Step2). Install a Proxy like Apache in frot of them like following:
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/05/13/apache-proxy-as-static-content-repository/
Or
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/08/01/weblogic-httpclusterservlet-proxyserver/
Step3). Now Configure a FrontEnd Host for your Cluster by providing the ProxyServer Host name as the FrontEnd of your Cluster. This step is required to Generate the Dynamic WSDL with the Address of the Frontend.(Not of a perticular WebLogic Server)
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/06/21/configuring-frontend-host-and-port/
Step4). Deploy your WebService on the Cluster
Step5). Now Hit the WebService using the Proxy URL:
Example:
http://ProxyHostname:proxyPort/ServiceContextRoot/ServiceURI?WSDL

Calling Web Service from CRM using proxy

Hi all,
I'm facing a problem trying to call a web service from CRM (WAS 620) via XI 3.0. The response that XI recieves from the web service contains SOAP Envelope, and the mapping fails because of it. I built the proxy manually, because if I load WSDL the proxy generation in CRM generates error that sais that external definition coudn't be used.
Is there any way to remove SOAP envelope from the response while mapping?
Is it possible to call web service from WAS 620?
Thanks!!!!
Anya.

Hi Manish,
SOAP adapter does pass the message to XI (this message contains SOAP envelope although XI expects to get message without it), and during the mapping step i get "Runtime Exception in Message-Mapping transformatio~".
I suppose it's because i created proxy manually. I did so because when i imported WSDL, and tried to generate proxy in CRM, i got an error message that said that proxy couldn't be generated because external definitions are only allowed in XI 3. But my XI version is 3.0! And when I generate the same proxy in my R/3 system that is installed on WAS 640, it works.
What can I do?
Cheers,
Anya.

Calling web Service from the Custom Adapter.Is it Possible?

Hi Experts,
I am having requirment in which i have to cal com.sap.aii.mapping.lookup.LookupService for calling web Service from the Custom Adapter.Is it Possible?
Regards,
Rajesh.D

Hi Rajesh..
Just looking the problem in another angle.. if there is no constraint that you have to use XI specific API to call the web service, why dont you use usual Java API used for calling a web service inside you custom adapter (I have Microsoft background.. donno exactly how it is done in Java,, but in .NET kind of a language it is possible). SInce your adapter is in Java itself and is capable of calling web service.. collect or lookup the data whatever you want and validate...
Just a thought..

How to make a PDF form call Web service and return a static pdf for user to print?

Hi all,
Can anyone help me regarding the feasibility of using PDF forms for my following case?
I would like to create a Dynamic pdf form. User only have the Acrobat reader. they can enter some information. Then have a submit button. when user click the submit button, it can call the web service with data. then Web service returns a Static PDF document based on data and the user can print it out. (and maybe save as separate pdf file)
1. Is that possible to implement? Because I know PDF can call web service, but dont know how it handle when the webservice returns another static PDF document. could it able to handle the responds and open up in another acrobat reader?
2. As I understand I need to have Live Cycle Designer to create a pdf and make it Reader Enabled. So user can user reader to call webservice? am I correct?
3. What minimum reader that user need to have? PDF reader 7 or above?
4. I have a webservice serve the same purpose for web. But if I want the same web services can serve both web and PDF form. So, whatever client (PDF or Web)make the web service call, server returns the PDF document to client. Is that possible ? Do I need to make any changes on web service?
5. Do I need to get any other Adobe server product? (other than Live Cycle Designer )
Thanks a lot

We have done a similar approach in the past and yes, it can be doable.
1. Is that possible to implement? Because I know PDF can call web service, but dont know how it handle when the webservice returns another static PDF document. could it able to handle the responds and open up in another acrobat reader?
Srini: We have developed a Servlet to talk to Webservice. Based on the Webservice response, the Servlet, prepares the Byte stream and sends it to Webbrowser to display as a PDF. The PDF data was submitted to Servlet in XML format.
But if you do not want to use the above approach, then you have to use the Workbench Process.
Submit the PDF data to a Workbench process and the inside process, execute Webservice Service with the data. Once the response is received, prepare the data XML and render a PDF with it.
To do this, you need LiveCycle Server and Reader Extensions server component.
2. As I understand I need to have Live Cycle Designer to create a pdf and make it Reader Enabled. So user can user reader to call webservice? am I correct?
Srini: If you want to use the Servlet, you can Reader extend the PDF with Acrobat.. But if you want to submit the data directly to Webservice, then you need Reader Extensions server component.
3. What minimum reader that user need to have? PDF reader 7 or above?
Srini: Not sure but Reader 8 and above should work.
4. I have a webservice serve the same purpose for web. But if I want the same web services can serve both web and PDF form. So, whatever client (PDF or Web)make the web service call, server returns the PDF document to client. Is that possible ? Do I need to make any changes on web service?
Srini: If you use the Servlet approach, then you can re-use the same webservice. But if you want to submit directly to the same webservice, you may need to change it to suit your data XML.
5. Do I need to get any other Adobe server product? (other than Live Cycle Designer )
Srini: If you use the Servlet approach, you do not need any server component but other approach, you need Livecycle Server and Reader Extensions server component.
Thanks
Srini

Problem call Web Service SAML on PI 7.0

Hi experts,
I have a problem very estrange on one scenario and maybe somebody could help me:
Our PI version is 7.0.
The BPM has got the following steps:
- Call WebService for get the SAML. Message Synchronous with request and response Authentification.
- We add the Authentification Response on Envelope message.
- Call web Service with Envelope, inside of this one there is the Authentification (step 1).
The las Web Service always returns that the Authentification is error.
We execute the same steps manually using SAOPGui program ( a free program for test WebService ) and the same steps works.. and the structures are the same, but on PI 7.0 never works.
We researh on forums and we have seen that the SAML Authentification is soported only for PI 7.1.
Could anybody confirm it? It is possible use SAML Authentification on PI 7.0? Are there other process to execute a SAML WebService using PI 7.0?
Any response or any idea will be very appreciated.
Thank you very much...
Regards,
Gemma

Calling web services

Hi,
How can I call web services from Oracle BI?
My web service has a method (GetEventList) which take some parameters and returns a list.
Can I call this web service method from a dashboard and then show it in there?
Thanks&Regards

Hi,
it`s a pity, that OBIEE does not offer a solution to directly send requests to external webservices and show their results within an answer. Before i tried OBI 11g, i hoped that there would be some improvements regarding that functionality in contrast to OBI 10g.
Workarounds:
1.) In Oracle BI Publisher you can directly call a webservice and get back its results within a report. You could then put that report onto a dashboard. (I do not know whether this is already possible in Oracle BI Publisher 10g
2.) OBI 11g Action Framework. You could put a link onto your dashboard, which calls a webservice. After the webservice sent a response, an information dialog is shown, which can be used to present some general info regarding the webservices' return values.
3.) Create an ASP.NET/JSP-File which calls your Webservice and presents its results in HTML. You could then embed this ASP/JSP-File via an IFrame into your dashboard.
4.) PL/SQL-Wrapper as mentioned before
Conclusion: Oracle should improve this functionality by allowing people to directly call Webservices from Answers.

XI call web service

Is it possible for XI to call web service (ie, input and output parameter) with complex Java data type, eg, JavaBean( getter and setter method) AND ArrayList/Collection etc ?
Is it required coding?
Appreciate if can provide any related links.
Thanks.
- julius

Hi julius,
May I kindly request you to be more clear with the requirments.
If you are trying to call the Web Service from XI then I am doutful, coz XI is middelware so you need to call the Web service from SAP system or may be from anythird party system.
Even you can use the underlaying R/3 system to invoke the Webservice in XI.
Thanks
