Pass additional parameter to SOAP header?

We are using webservice datawindows to pass request xmls to call webservices. Additionally we use 'wsconnection' objects authenticationmode, username and password property to send information to SOAP header.
Now we have to send one more value to SOAP header. This new value will be a string(like username).
I checked the wsConnection properties and did not find anything which could be used. Can anyone please advise on it.

If they constructed the web service correctly, the WSDL should include information on the custom header attributes you need to pass. If it's there, any version of PowerBuilder 10.5.1 or later will provide a method you can call to pass it.

Passing Parameter through SOAP Header in ODIInvokeWebService

How to pass parameters in SOAP Header in ODIInvokeWebService and not just in SOAP Body?
Background:
One of our web service provider expects certain parameters set in SOAP Header. Currently, ODIInvokeWebService allows to set parameters through SOAP (Request) Body and not through SOAP Header.
How can we set and send parameters in SOAP Header when using ODIInvokeWebService. Can we set this in a request file. Any workaround?
BTW is this a limitation in the tool. If yes, I am looking for a work around. I can setup a proxy service/servlet and re-route the request to the provider but I would like to know if there is a work that can be done easily through ODIInvokeWebService before I look for other options.
Appreciate your help.
Thank you.

Hi Muthu ,
This is not supported by the ODIInvokeWS Tool.
There are some ER logged against this and may be it will get implemented in ODI 11g

Passing authentication info in soap header

We need to integrate a webservice in ALSB 2.6. This webservice needs authentication information (username and password) to be passed inside the soap header.
I imported the wsdl into ALSB and created a business service on it. When I try to test one of the webservice's method using the test console, I am not sure how do I pass the authentication fields inside the soap header.
Can anyone please provide some inputs.
Regards,
Rishi

The best way to do that is to create an XML file and register it as an Xquery resource in ALSB. You can then access the Xquery file from your pipeline to update your message.
An alternative way is to use th Xquery function "doc" to read files from the file system. However I discourage you to do that since this file will need to be present on your server and won't be managed by the config framework which is going to increase the maintenance burden.

How to use XHeaderName1 in SOAP header

I have a scenario in which im passing the target URL of a webservice dynamically in my mapping udf.
I have to pass the URL to the TServerLocation parameter in SOAP header. But the error i get is that the URL is too long for TServerLocation. So i have to split it and send it using XHeaderName1,XHeaderName2 and XHeaderName3.
Can anyone tell me how to do this.
i saw this blog which gives me some idea but still my scenario is not working
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
please Help

Hi Sivasakthi Danasekaran,
URL is an environment variable I think it will take 256 charecters only. You need to split it compulsorly.

How to Capture SOAP Header in BPEL

Hi All,
I have a requirement to pass a value from SOAP Header to BPEL and has to capture the value in BPEL and manipulate the data.

Post user and pass to SOAP Header message in ABAP Proxy

Hi Folks!
I'm trying to post user and pass to SOAP Header on an ABAP proxy. I've already read the thread [Consume web service in ABAP proxy with SOAP header|Re: Consume web service in ABAP proxy with SOAP header; and I see that is possible to manipulate SOAP Header but I cannot understand how I work with function module SDIXML_XML_TO_DOM.
Do I need pass to parameter xml a complete SOAP Envelope? If it is right how can I get the complete xml message to pass to this parameter? I think I don't need the build the xml strucuture as I did on WebAS 6.40, isn't it?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi Rafael,
I would be interested in the solution... could you please post it into forum.

How do pass the UserID and Password in the SOAP header for web services

I am encountering issues trying to pass the userid and password in the SOAP header when consuming a 3rd party web service. Rostewitz posted something similiar but I don't know how to type iv_xml. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
jpina

It helps to post a link to a thread when you refer to it. If you are trying to implement that solution though, you can look at the parameter of the corresponding method being called. The parameter has type 'SIMPLE' which means that it is compatible with all of the predefined elementary ABAP types. In this case, you should use 'STRING'.

Hi,
Try using obtunnel with your bepl console.
Alternatively, if your server is on unix/ linux, try tcpdump to capture packets to a particular server and then open the file in wireshark to analyse the contents.
Wish SOA suite would allow us to view this by default!

What version of PowerBuilder?
PB.Net or Classic?
Are you using the SOAP or .Net Engine (if using Classic)?
What kind of header?
There is limited support for passing custom headers in the .Net engine in Classic. The header would need to be defined in the WSDL for the service.
Anything beyond that (e.g., WS-Security) would need to be handled in a WCF client in PB.Net.

Soap Header in Xcelsius: How to pass Credentials

Using Xcelcius 2008 (Excelcius Engage) We are making a dashboard application which uses the Web service connection to call SOAP based web services.
Is there a way to Authenticate the Web Services passing User ID pwd from within one of the excel cells?
The idea is to suppress the authentication and pass the credentials from within the excel cell or any other way which doesn't require user to log in to the Web services while running the Dashboards?
Also I found out an option in Web Service Connection -> Advanced Tab to add a soap header which can include credentials. Is there a format in which I need to create this soap header? Any sample Soap Header would be of great help.

I'd like to know how to do this also, seems silly to have the option to use web services but give no way of passing Basic Authentication credentials.
Cheers
Craig

Add field inside SOAP header PI 7.1

Hello,
by proyect needs we need to add into SOAP header some dynamic information
(Web Services calls to target systems from PI 7.1). This information is
needed in target application for validating permissions of the web
services calls.
The tags are
<soap:Header>
<CarHeader xmlns="http://xxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx.org/">
<TicketCar>xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx......</TicketCar>
</CarHeader>
</soap:Header>
TicketCar's value (xxxxxx....) will be different in each call.
We think that this is not possible with standar or Axis PI SOAP receiverchannel and a solution could be making a Abap mapping for composing the
SOAP call with this tags and values, and in the comunication channel
check the parameter "Do not use SOAP Envelope".
It's rigth? Is there any other solution for doing it?
An example of a call will be:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Header>
<CarHeader xmlns="http://xxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx.org/">
<TicketCar>C4A8A61D86C56DC27......</TicketCar>
</CarHeader>
</soap:Header>
<soap:Body>
<E000xx xmlns="http://xxxxx.xxxxxxxx.xxx.org/">
<_request>
<NumeroExpedienteAdministrativo>xxx</NumeroExpedienteAdministrativo>
<CodigoDocumentoInterno>xxx</CodigoDocumentoInterno>
<Status>xx</Status>
<NumeroExpedienteContable>xxx</NumeroExpedienteContable>
</_request>
</E000xx>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
Any idea will be welcome
Edited by: Ramon Coma Alcantara on Feb 2, 2010 4:15 PM

Hi Ramon,
The axis adapter comes with a convenient header insertion handler where you can insert an arbitrary header using a template.
For example, you can define a template like this in the module configuration.
<x:header xmlns:x="urn:x"><me>i say </me><you>you say </you></x:header>
where , , ... are variable place holders.
and you associate these variables with any context value available in the message.
For example, when you pass Hello and Bye for these variables, you soap message will get the header:
<x:header xmlns:x="urn:x"><me>i say Hello</me><you>you say Bye</you></x:header>
You can look at the examples described in Note 1039369 Axis Adapter FAQ.
As I said before, the mileage you can go with the do-not-use-envelope mode is very limited. But if you are happy with it, why not.
Best regards, Yza

Handling SOAP HEADER using SOAP Receiver Adapter

Hi Experts,
I need to implement SOAP Receiver Scenario and passing ( Header fields User, Password and token) I have seen a lot of scenario using a XSLT Mapping, to handling the SOAP Header. So need to help to understand some details:
Suppose I need to implement the SOAP Header below? In this case I need add only the fields u201CUsername, Password and AuthenticationTokenu201D. I created the XSLT Transform, the source XML? Where I put it? Or can create it into Message Interface?
Is it possible to do this in Java Mapping?
Thanks!

You need to put XSLT mapping in 2° step mapping in request.
SourceMessageRequest -> Message Mapping -> XSLT Mapping -> DestinationMessageRequest
If you test mapping program, this should be working fine.
In adapter module, put localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean with parameter value text/xml; charset=utf-8 and correctly set Conversion Parameter "Do not use Soap Envelop"
XSLT Request Mapping
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

Consume web service in ABAP with SOAP header

I'm trying to call a SalesForce Web Service from ABAP.
After the login I use the WS_HEADER to pass header information.
TRY.
Additional Header:
      CONCATENATE
      '<soap:Header>'
      '<s1:SessionHeader>'
      '<s1:sessionId>' login_output-result-session_id '</s1:sessionId>'

      '</soap:Header>' INTO l_string.
convert to xstring
      l_xstring = cl_proxy_service=>cstring2xstring( l_string ).
      ws_header ?= obj_add->get_protocol('IF_WSPROTOCOL_WS_HEADER').
      IF NOT l_string IS INITIAL.
create iXML DOM document from XML xstring
        CALL FUNCTION 'SDIXML_XML_TO_DOM'
          EXPORTING
            xml           = l_xstring
          IMPORTING
            document      = xml_document
          EXCEPTIONS
            invalid_input = 1
            OTHERS        = 2.
        IF sy-subrc = 0 AND NOT xml_document IS INITIAL.
          xml_root = xml_document->get_root_element( ).
          xml_element ?= xml_root->get_first_child( ).
add header element by element to SOAP header
          WHILE NOT xml_element IS INITIAL.
            name = xml_element->get_name( ).
            namespace = xml_element->get_namespace_uri( ).
            namespace = 'urn:partner.soap.sforce.com'."xml_element->get_namespace_uri( ).
            IF NOT xml_element IS INITIAL.
            ENDIF.
get WS_HEADER protocol
            ws_header->set_request_header(
            name = name
            namespace = namespace
            dom = xml_element ).
            xml_element ?= xml_element->get_next( ).
          ENDWHILE.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
    CATCH cx_ai_system_fault .
ENDTRY.
I get the following exception: CX_SXML_PARSE_ERROR
I guess the error has to do with the wrong description of the additional header.
In soapUI the header looks like that:
   <soapenv:Header>
      <urn:SessionHeader>
         <urn:sessionId>1234567890</urn:sessionId>
      </urn:SessionHeader>
   </soapenv:Header>
Is there somebody who knows how I should "translate" this to ABAP?
Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Jelena
Thanks for your answer.
I've already created the proxy.
The question is how or where I get the correct format for the header of this string in ABAP:
CONCATENATE
'<soap:Header>'
'<s1:SessionHeader>'
'<s1:sessionId>' login_output-result-session_id '</s1:sessionId>'
'</s1:SessionHeader>'
'</soap:Header>' INTO l_string.
This example is wrong. I get the following error: CX_SXML_PARSE_ERROR
As I mentioned before in soapUI the header looks like that:
<soapenv:Header>
<urn:SessionHeader>
