Regarding HTTP adapter

Hi ,
Would you please tell me why we donot use Sender adapter for the messages which use HTTP protocol .

Hi Anita,
IDOC and HTTP adapters are sitting in the Integration Engine directly...No need to configure them...
For HTTP sender..You can use HTTP client to send the messages to XI.
Can u check this link

Plain HTTP Adapter vs SOAP Adapter with regards to SSL

Hi,
I need to setup communication channles within XI to send and receive secure xml. I am confused after reading the XI documentation and the some of the discussion forums on SDN.
Can anyone clarify the following:
1) Does the plain HTTP Adapter support SSL? According to the XI documentation is does NOT? Have I miss read it?
2) This being the case, the only way to send and receive secure XML is to use the XI/SOAP Adapter?
Thanx for your help.
Cheers
Yackeen

Hi Yackeen,
no, that's not true. The plain HTTP Adapter supports SSL. No problem.

How to build the "Path Prefix" HTTP Adapter at run time

Hi All,
I have a scenario wherein I have to call the HTTP Url of a thiird party system from R/3 via PI.
The third party url looks liike this:
http://gis/ias/cgi-bin/siscgi.exe?request=batch&command=<requests><request><name>sis_neighbouring_knos_for_sambandh_service</name><buffer>20</buffer><same_premise_kno>123</same_premise_kno><l
eft_kno>331</left_kno><gis_id>4019589</gis_id><priority>same_premise_kno,left_kno,right_kno,gis_id</priority></request></requests>&user_name=sambandh.sias&pa
ssword=sambandhsias
I have successfully created a HTTP Recevier comm channel and provided the following in the "Path Prefix"
/ias/cgi-bin/siscgi.exe?request=batch&command=<requests><request><name>sis_neighbouring_knos_for_sambandh_service</name><buffer>20</buffer><same_premise_kno>123</same_premise_kno><l

ssword=sambandhsias
But If I need to pass the values inside the xml tags specified above e.g. "name" at run time, How do I do that?
I have explored the "Apply URL Parameters" option in the HTTP Comm channel but it has fixed names for the HTTP URL parameter.
Please let me know how is this possible hopefully without a UDF
thanks,
Piyush

Hi Piyush,
Have you checked the option of ASMA of the adapter?

UTF-8 encoding problem in HTTP adapter

Hi Guys,
I am facing problem in the UTF-8 multi-byte character conversion.
Problem:
I am posting data from SAP CRM to third party system using XI as middle ware. I am using HTTP adapter to communicate XI to third party system.
in HTTP configuration i have given XML code as UT-8 in the XI payload manipulation block.
I am trying to post Chines characters from SAP CRM to third party system. junk characters are going to third party system. my assumption is it is double encoding.
I have checked the Xml messages in the Message monitoring in XI, i can able to see the chines charaters in XML files. But in the third party system it is showing as junk characters.
Can you please any one help me regarding this issue.
Please let me know if you need more info.

ASMA in HTTP adapter

Hello All,
I'm want to use the ASMA in http adapters.
I tried in file adapters and got the expected result but in HTTP couldn't get it.
In file adapter:
I have selected the ASMA option in sender communication channel and selected the filename so that filename is included in message header.
When selected the ASMA in receiver communication channel and selected the filename so that the filename which is added in message header is getting reflected here by overwriting the constant file name given in filename schema.
In HTTP adapter:
In sender communication channel i'm selecting the ASMA. But i have doubt in using the
HTTP Header Fields .
Field 1, …, 6: (technical name: HeaderFieldOne, .... HeaderFieldSix)
URL Parameters
Parameter 1, …, 6: (technical name: URLParamOne, …, URLParamSix)
here url parameters implies what? is it the optional parameters like msgguid, party....etc other than mandatory parameters namespace,interface,senderservice?
What is this HTTP fields...? is it any additional fields other than above optional and mandatory fields, which are coming in HTTP reuest url.
I have used the HTTP client tool to send payload to my PI system. I sent the xml payload to pi by providing the mandatory fields. it's fine. when i gave the optional parameters in the input filed, automatically it is including in xi message header(without selecting the option URL parameters).
Also i have added two input fields and entered value in them, they got added in fields in URL. But they are not reflecting in messgae header inspite of selecting HTTP Header Fields and gave that input field.
Please give detail description. I have checked in several blogs but didn't get enough info.
Please help me.
Regards,
Ch.Venkat

Hi Venkat,
Please refer the SAP Note 1386621 - Plain HTTP Adapter: Dynamic parameter.
here url parameters implies what? is it the optional parameters like msgguid, party....etc other than mandatory parameters namespace,interface,senderservice?
URL parameter is to create or retrieve URL. for receiver HTTP adapter you can set this parameter on UDF and create dynamic HTTP url at run time.
What is this HTTP fields...? is it any additional fields other than above optional and mandatory fields, which are coming in HTTP reuest url.
HTTP fileds is to create or retrieve HTTP header values (If present).
Please check the SAP note for more detail.

How to send XML file into XI using sender HTTP adapter

I am using HTTP sender adapter to post the XML file into XI. I tried to form the URL by using the following String query , but I am unable to execute file.
String urlString = "http://<servername:portno>/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace=<namespace>&interface=<interface name>&service=<service name>&party=&agency=&scheme=&QOS=BE&sap-user=xiappluser&sap-password=satyam&sap-client=100&sap-language=EN";
How can I execute xml file by using HTTP sender adapter.
Any one with better suggestions, about this idea?
Thanks in advance for all.
Ram Raj

Hi
Just use the following parameter to send xml file using HTTP adapter.
"http://xiserver:8000/sap/xi/adapter_plain?namespace="senderNamespace"&interface=senderinterface&service=sender service";
"&party=sender party"&agency=&scheme=&QOS=BE&sap-user=userid &sap-password=password&sap-client=100&sap-language=D";
with the help of this you are able to point out which interface you would like to use.
And in payload pass the xml.
and thats it
carry on
Cheers

SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPT

Hi there,
I am trying to publish a file from SAP as web service using XI and SOAP Adapter.
I am using ABAP proxy to get the data into XI.
Designing and Configuration in XI has no problems because when i use File adapter the data is trasmitted to FTP server.
But when I used SOAP Reciever adapter I am getting following error in RWB
Delivery of the message to the application using connection SOAP_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Error during parsing of SOAP header.
Scenario: SAP ABAP Proxy -> XI -> WebService. Asynchronous.
SOAP Receiver adaptor.
Target URL http://<host>:<port number >/sap/xi/engine?type=entry&version=3.0&Sender.Service=SAPDC2653&Interface=urn:bzttest:00:hsa:test%5EOB_MI_BZT_TEST&QualityOfService=ExactlyOnce
Do not use SOAP Envelop is checked.
SOAP Action http://sap.com/xi/WebService/soap1.1
What i am missing here? How should I solve this problem?
Any help is appreciated,
Thx,
Yogi

Say there's a bapi/rfc that you want to call on an R/3 backend (e.g. 4.6c). On it's own, the R/3 system cannot expose the rfc/bapi as a web service, but XI can. So in this case, the scenario would be:
WS client -> XI -> R/3
When XI "exposes" a web service, it is exposing a service for a receiving system (in the above example, the R/3 system). XI itself does not provide or contain the service implementation. When XI exposes a web service, it is always done via the sender soap adapter (i.e. if soap adapter is used). Receiver soap adapter is used to call or consume an actual web service from an external application.

SAP PI 7.1 HTTP Adapter

In my scenario, SAP PI 7.1. needs to talk to a 3rd party EDI system via web services. SAP PI is using HTTP adapter to exchange XML messages for both inbound and outbound with the EDI system. Questions:
1. If SAPI PI sends for example 100 (different) messages to the EDI system every day, will PI make 100 web service calls to the EDI system to send each individual message?
2. Please explain how PI will use the HTTP URL to send the messages to the EDI system. Any document/blogs to explain how HTTP adapter works for exchanging messages with third party systems (web service capable)? Did not find anything good one in SDN.
3. Any disadvantage of using HTTP adapter, e.g. for high volume scenarios?

> 1. If SAPI PI sends for example 100 (different) messages to the EDI system every day, will PI make 100 web service calls to the EDI system to send each individual message?
Yes, it will use 100 cals to process 100 individual messages.
>
> 2. Please explain how PI will use the HTTP URL to send the messages to the EDI system. Any document/blogs to explain how HTTP adapter works for exchanging messages with third party systems (web service capable)? Did not find anything good one in SDN.

When you use HTTP adapter in receiver side, you will specify address of the target system in URL format, that means data will be send it to specific UIRL adress.
> 3. Any disadvantage of using HTTP adapter, e.g. for high volume scenarios?
i prefer using SOAP adapter for web service cals..HTTP adapter give good perfomance.

PI 7.1 HTTP Adapter - overwritte Prolog dynamically

I use a HTTP Adapter to send XML Data via HTTP as form field. Therefore i use the prolog constant. Example: xmlfile=.... Now i need two new parameter (user and password) as post parameters. I can change to prolog like user=...&password=....&xmlfile=.. But in this case the prolog with the user is hard coded. in my scenaria the user and password should dynamically load from Message Mapping. The solution with the dynamic URL Parameter 1-6 could not be used, because this values are GET Parameters which are visible in der URI!
Is there a solution for post parameters dynamically via HTTP Adapter?

The operation mapping aka Interface mapping's need not only use 1 single mapping.
In the interface mapping you can add multiple message mappings and / or other mapping programs.
The mappings get executed sequentially and the output of first mapping is input to second mapping and so on.
In this case, write a java mapping that will take the input as the output of your graphical mapping; add the prolog to this and make it the output of your Java Mapping and this is the final output of your Operation mapping!

From above link:
The plain HTTP adapter only evaluates the main payload of a received XML message. Additional attachments are ignored and not forwarded.

HTTP adapter - change encoding from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1

Hi,
I am trying to change the encoding used by the HTTP sender adapter in a scenario.
However, when I enter ISO-8859-1 in the XML Code under XI Payload Manipulation on the comms channel it has no effect - the paylad still shows as UTF-8 in SXI_MONITOR.
Am I missing a step or entering the field incorrectly ??
Thanks
Colin.

Hi,
From help
Enhancing the Payload
Some external systems, for example, Web servers in marketplaces, can only process data if it is sent as an HTML form using HTTP.
A typical HTML form comprises named fields. When transferring a completed form to the server or a CGI program, the data must be transferred in such a way that the CGI script can recognize the fields that make up the form, and which data was entered in which field.
The plain HTTP adapter constructs this format using a prolog and an epilog. Therefore, there is a particular code method that separates form fields and their data from each other. This code method uses the following rules:
     Individual form elements, including their data, are separated from each other by the character &.
     The name and data of a form element are separated from each other by an equals sign (=).
     Blanks in the entered data (for example, in multiple words) are replaced by a plus sign (+).
    All characters with the (enhanced) ASCII values 128 to 255 (hexadecimal 80 to FF) are transcribed using a hexadecimal sequence, beginning with a percentage sign (%) followed by the hexadecimal value of the character (for example, the German umlaut ö in the character set ISO-8859-1 is transcribed as %F6).
   All characters that occur in these rules as control characters (&, +, =, and %) are also transcribed hexadecimally in the same way as high value ASCII characters

XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION

Dear All,
My SOAP receiver communication channel in production server has the following error:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: SOAP: response message contains an error XIAdapter/HTTP/ADAPTER.HTTP_EXCEPTION - HTTP 500 Internal Server Error.
I am in process of finding the root cause for the issue.
I welcome your suggestions.

Hi,
Yes the channel was working fine. I have contacted the target system ppl. They are saying that they did not receive any messages. To resend the messages my channel should work without errors rt then only I can process.
Does it a problem of network or issue with the WS?
Thanks & Regards,
