Multiple Interfaces on a single web service URL

we have a scenario where we have a multiple interfaces that are related to SD that needs to be exposed to another system. When we generate the WSDL from XI - it seems we can do only for one interface at a time.
Is there a way - where in we can expose a single URL and treat these interfaces as web methods on that single URL? (similar to .Net or Java)
If yes - how do we do that?
Thanks.

That will not be possible. Instead you have to expose only one interface which takes generic data as input. In the mapping, depending on dat, you should map them to various other interfaces which would definetly make your scenario complex..
In XI each outbound interface is a separate web service (method).

Exposing mutiple outbound message interface as a single Web service

Hi all,
My Scenario is SOAP <--> PI 7.0 <---> SAP R/3 (Proxy communication). A third party portal will communicate 24/7 online with SAP R/3 via PI 7.0. I have to expose all the outbound message interfaces as a single webservice, so that the third party portal will consume that web service and will communicate to SAP R/3. The communication between Portal and PI 7.0 will be SOAP and from PI to SAP R/3 as proxy communication. I can able to expose a each outbound message interface as a webservice individually i.e each message interface gets separate WSDL file. But the portal people asking me to generate single WSDL (web service) in which all the message interfaces should be included as operations. Could you please send me the information, how to generate a single web service for all the message interfaces?
I have gone through the entire SDN community, but could nt able to get the information. If anybody worked on similer issue , please guide me to approach to get the solution.

Hi,
It is possible to expose all operation using one endpoint by overwritting the default interface name and interface namespace in one "generic" soap sender CC. To achieve it, you need to set the following options Use Encoded Headers and Use Query String in your sender CC.
Unfortunatelly, there is one drowback of this approach. Before portal will send the request, it has to concatenate the generic endpoint:
http://<host>:<j2ee-port>/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=<party>:<service>:<channel>
with URL encoded interface information:
&version=3.0&Interface=http%3A%2F%2Fsap.com%2Ftest%5ETest
for each operations.
For more detail ref these docs:
[How To Use the XI 3.0 SOAP Adapter|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d23cbe11-0d01-0010-5287-873a22024f79]

I guess that in PI 7.1 this disadvantage will be enhanced.

Multiple Exchange 2013 SSL Certificates & Web Services URLs

I have two Exchange 2013 CU5 Standard servers in a DAG. Both servers have both the CAS and Mailboxes roles installed.
The servers are running Server 2012 Standard. The DAG uses a file share witness server.
The witness server and one Exchange server, which is usually the active server, are on the same subnet in our primary data centre.
The second Exchange server is on a different subnet in our backup data centre across town.
The domain that these servers are in is part of a forest with another domain.
That domain is, physically, in another jurisdiction. The domains share a namespace.
All users in both domains have username at name.com as their e-mail address.
The other domain has two Exchange 2013 servers in a DAG. It also has one Exchange 2007 server, that is being phased out.
All messages that my domain users send to external recipients pass though the Exchange servers in my domain, a firewall for my domain, an Internet connection, a firewall in the other domain, the Exchange servers in the other domain, the firewall for
the other domain, and then out to the external recipients. The reverse path is followed for inbound mail from external senders.
All ActiveSync traffic for my users passes through the Exchange servers and a proxy server in the other domain.
I have a self-signed SAN certificate on the Exchange servers in my domain.
That certificate is also deployed on all of the mobile devices that my users have.
I have been asked to see if I can set things up so that a test user can send and receive e-mail with their mobile device, and have that traffic go from my Exchange servers, through the firewall for my domain, and out to external recipients.
Due to a lack of test systems, I have been asked to develop this on my production servers, without disrupting the existing mail flow.
Is that possible? What would need to be done to accomplish this?
If the test is possible, and successful, my Exchange servers, and all other relevant systems, would be changed so that all mail traffic from my domain no longer goes through the other domain.

You could set a test send connector for @outsidedomain.com to use your Exchange servers as source servers, and make sure you have at least one reverse DNS entry (PTR) in place for whatever IP your external firewall presents to the world for the Exchange
servers. This is critical in order not to have the rest of the world discard your emails (spammers usually fail the reverse DNS name).
For incoming traffic, you could use a DNS domain that you own and that's not in use currently (eg oldcompany.com belonging to someone your current employer purchased) and have an MX record for this pointing to the public IP address(es) of the published Exchange
servers.
However mail routing cannot be done to work one way with mobile devices and another way with Outlook. In this case both ActiveSync and Outlook are simply interfaces to send/receive emails using your common SMTP infrastructure. So once configured for the
test as above, both ActiveSync, Outlook, OWA, EWS clients will send/receive emails in the same way. In the example above - anyone sending to @outsidedomain.com, regardless it's the users hosted on your Exchange servers or the ones in the other domain, will
be sent using the new route.

Web service URL with multiple parameters

Hi all,
I'm trying to make use of a web service that takes multiple parameters without the use of a proxy (we're using NW 7/7.1 and proxies aren't supported - i.e. i'm getting the same thing as described here: Proxy object to consume web service)
So instead I'm trying to follow a method similar to what is done [here|http://sample-code-abap.blogspot.com/2009/05/simple-code-consume-web-service-using.html]
When I put the web service url into a browser and click on the operation it comes up with
http://portLocation/company/webservice.asmx?op=operation
and comes up with the sample SOAP request and response as normal.
Now with most web services with one parameter, the url translates to something like: http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetCitiesByCountry?CountryName=australia
Which works fine.
However, the web service i'm using has 4 parameters and when I try and translate my url to be like this (http://portLocation/Company/WebService.asmx/Operation?parameter1=XX&parameter2=XX&parameter3=XX&parameter4=XX) I get, "The page cannot be displayed"
Can anyone suggest a way that I might be able to get around this or what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
are you sure that your Operation is valid? So for example in your [example|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx] there are just two operations: [GetCitiesByCountry|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetCitiesByCountry] and [GetWeather|http://www.webservicex.net/globalweather.asmx/GetWeather]. You are right about passing multiple parameters. You need to put ? after valid URL and then pairs <name>=<value> separated by &. Don't forget that you need to encode <name> and <value> to avoid problems.
Cheers

Web Service URL length limits, LV2013 vs LV2012

(* CROSS POST: http://lavag.org/topic/18435-web-service-url-length-limits-lv2013-vs-lv2012/ *)
(* Please reply in this forum. I have marked the other thread to put replies here. *)
Has anyone noticed a reduction to the limit on URL length for Web Services between LV versions 2012 and 2013?
Under LV2012, a RESTful web service appears to accept URL with lengths at least as long as 4096 characters. With LV2013, the max URL length appears to be 511 characters for both RESTful and Project Item web services. Unfortunately for me the project I just converted trips over this issue. My goal with posting this query to here is to improve my understanding of this limitation before I decide how best to modify my code. Certainly using POST rather than GET with a long URL is an option, but again, I'm looking to understand the change in limitation before I choose a solution.
To illustrate I have attached three mostly identical projects which demonstrate the issue. In each case the project contains a webservice consisting of a single VI, "ComputeLength", which takes a String as an input parameter and which outputs the length of the string. The three projects are as follows.
1. LV2012 RESTful web service.
2. LV2013 RESTful web service.
3. LV2013 Project item web service.
The web service contains a single VI. For the RESTful examples, the web service is started by selecting Deploy from the Build specification right click menu. For the Project Item example, the web service is started by selecting Start from the MyComputer/WebService right click menu. The use of this example is demonstrated with the following URL:
(note that the port is 8080 for the two RESTful examples and is 8001 for the Project item web service if used in Debug mode, which is the default for the above instruction.)
http://localhost:8080/webservice/computelength?string=1234567890
And the output looks like this.
<Response>
<Terminal>
<Name>StringLength</Name>
<Value>10</Value>
</Terminal>
</Response>
To see the issue, extend the string parameter such that the URL contains more than 511 characters beyond the port number. For example something like this, http://localhost:8080/webservice/computelength?string=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890....(keep repeating)
For the LV2012 example the string parameter may be at least as long as 4000 characters, which I've demonstrated using Chrome as my browser. For both of the LV2013 examples the URL is limited to 511 characters after the localhost and the port number.
Anyone know whether this is a bug or this is an intentional design change? How about whether the URL length limit is configurable?
I am also consulting NI tech support and will report back their response.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Martin

Solution found. Apparently starting in LV 2013, there is a default limit of 512 to the URL length. The default limit may be overridden as described below.
Martin
This is Brian in Applications Engineering from National Instruments. I am following up regarding the 511 character limit in your Web Service HTTP request following the port number. After some research I've figured out that the issue is related to a default web server setting called "LimitUri," which limits the maximum length of a URL. The default setting is 512 characters which is why we are seeing this issue.
There are multiple ways of changing the URL length limit depending on how you are using your web service. If you are publishing the web service using the Application Web Server then modify "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\NI WebServer\NIWebAppServer.conf" and add "LimitUri 4096" to the end of the file without the quotes.
If you are running the Debug Web Server by just clicking start on the web service then modify "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\resource\webserver\niwsdebugserver.conf" and add "LimitUri 4096" to the end of the file without the quotes.

How to keep multiple function modules under one Web service

Hi Experts,
I have Three RFC function modules and i need to create one web service for these three RFC function modules. I know How to crearte a web service for one function module.
please suggest me How to keep multiple function modules under one Web service.
Thanks in advance
Lakshminarayana

Hi Lakshmi,
The best way to do it is to assign all the three RFC Enabled FM's to one function group. Later on the top menu in Utilities you get an option to Create a Webservice from a Function Group.
You can create one single Webservice using all the the 3 FM's.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Manu

Web service URL configuration for Xcelsius in BO XI3.1

Currently we can evaluate the BOE R2 and BOE XI3.1, and we are facing such a problem:
In R2, we configure the Web service URL for Tomcat in "...\Tomcat\webapps\businessobjects\enterprise115\desktoplaunch\WEB-INF\web.xml
", there is a parameter called "crystalxcelsius.webconnectorurl", we configure it like this:
<context-param>
        <param-name>crystalxcelsius.webconnectorurl</param-name>
        <param-value>
             http://XX:8080/dswsbobje/qaawsservices/queryasaservice
        </param-value>
</context-param>
How can we do the same configuration in BOE XI3.1?
We cannot find the same web.xml because the folder structure has changed.
After we deployed the Xcelsius dashboards from BOE R2 to BOE XI3.1, it failed and the error message shows:"Unable to load URL...".

The Xcelsius team is investigating this issue. We'll update you when possible. Meanwhile here is a suggestion from another user.
"The web service url setting was removed from XI R3 due to the changes in InfoView/CMC client action framework in XI R3. In XI R3, there are multiple web.xml files instead of just one web.xml. The parameters defined in Xcelsius' web.xml cannot be accessed by Crystal Report or WebI...
Anyway, I have a workaround might work (I never tried it myself). In Xcelsius design time, add a flashvars range name "CEWebServiceURL" and bind the value of this range to a cell that has the url of the web service you want to use at run-time. The SWF should use this url to refresh LiveOffice at run-time."

Difference between Web Service URL and Report Manager URL

What is the difference between Web Service URL and Report Manager URL in Reporting Service configuration manager in SQl Server 2008 Reporting Setrvices

Another way to put it is the Web Service URL is just that, its used for services that are connecting to issue API calls. The Report Manager URL is the nice GUI that users should use. If you click the links, you should see the difference. I
am sure you have likely done that, but functionally one is for programmatic purposes and the other to be the front end graphical user interface.
Sometimes pictures help as well...

What to specfify in CA Reporting services integration (Report server web service URL) when using SSL for both SharePoint and SSRS?

Hello,
We are using Sharepoint 2010 and SQL Server reporting services 2008 R2.    We have the sharepoint site bound to port 443 using a certificate.   We also have the same certificate bound in the reporting services configuration manager's
web service URL tab.    In CA should we put the SSL URL or the non SSL URL?    Right now in CA it has the then non SSL URL,
http://fakehostname/ReportServer_REPORTSERVICE.     We have some sporadic issues and I am wondering if setting this to our SSL URL will help.    Please let me know
if you have any questions.
Thanks,

Dynamic Web Service URL

I'm using a .Net based web service to fetch data. The exported XCelsius will be deployed on the customer's environment along with the web service. In that case, the SWF file should connect to web service deployed on my customer site. But, it looks for the hard coded path of the web service. In XCelsius designer, there is no option to pick the web service URL from a cell, as available in the "XML data" button. Is there any other way to pass on the Web Service URL dynamically to the SWF file. Please note, I may use more that one web service connectors in my SWF file.

With regards to the Web Service Connector in CX, you can dynamically set the URL/end point path of the Web Service if you have installed the latest hotfix of CX:
http://support.businessobjects.com/communityCS/FilesAndUpdates/crystal_xcelsius_4.5_hotfix.zip.asp
After, you will see in the properties of the Web Service Connector by tying it to a cell in the speadsheet.

Invalid Web service URL

Hi All,
While creating a model in VC7.0 based on an external webservice(ex: http://api.google.com/GoogleSearch.wsdl), I ended-up with Invalid Web service URL error.
Note: When I access the same WSDL URL using browser it didn't ask me for user authentication, the XML file was opened neatly.
Please assist.
FYI- Portal Version is NW2004s SP16.
Kind regards,
Vijay

Hi Fabien,
Thanks for your feedback.
Yes, I had tried with simple and local one, and found success in that as well.
But, this time I would like to create a model based on the some 3rd party webservice available in internet.
If you know few simple 3rd party webservice available in internet as like the one I have mentioned in my initial post, that would be helpful to me.
Many thanks.
Kind regards,
Vijay

Substitution variable for Web Service URLs

Hello all,
I'm building some RESTful web service references into an Apex 4 application.
I have a requirement to incorporate different web service URLs, depending on the environment (Dev, Test, Live etc.).
I'd like to design this so that Apex can pick up the URL from a substitution variable, and I'm not able to do this.
Can anyone help with this, or suggest a workaround?
Thanks,
Rhodri

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your reply.
Could you please explain where you used the substitution variable as the URL Endpoint of your REST Web service reference?
I'm trying to create a Rest Webservice reference (Shared Components > Edit REST Web Reference) and use the substitution variable as the URL in the definition, and &SUBST_VAR. does not seem to work there.
Thanks,
Rhodri

Invalid Web Service URL Error

I am trying to access define a new webservice system using the WSDL for my local queryview web service. When I put in the WSDL URL it comes back with a "Invalid Web Service URL" error. If I put the URL in the Browser address, it successfully brings back the web service information. Any ideas why I can't define this web service system?
http://<server>:8001/sap/bw/xml/soap/queryview?sap-client=040&wsdl=1.1
<server> is a token for posting concerns...
Thanks!

I am imagining that the BW QUERY_VIEW_DATA web service complies to the Basic Profile 1.0.
And I don't quite understand this part?
<i>In addition, connections to Web services for SAP backend systems must be performed via logical destinations (configured in the SAP J2EE engine with the Visual Administrator) and not via portal systems</i>
Since the QUERY_VIEW_DATA Web Service resides on my BW system is the BW system considered a SAP backend system? Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
