Starting a flow through a web service

Dear,
In GP it was possible to start a flow by calling a webservice and entering the input parameters required.
Is this possible for a BPM process in CE 7.11? If so, how?
Kind regards,
Frederik-Jan.

I expect you mean starting a process-instance by webservice?
If so, when building a new process, the wizard asks you for a start-endpoint, which practically means a webservice endpoint for the start-event of the process.
There you can build an endpoint with signature (WSDL).
hope this helps,
Reinhard

How to start a batch job through a web service call

I have a batch job created Data Services that I would like to be able to start through a web service call.
I have exposed the batch job as a Web Service through the mangement console.
The Integrators guide is not the clearest piece of documentation that I have ever read so I'm now having a little trouble.
In C# I'm issuing the following statements:
            DataServices.Batch_JobsClient batchClient = new DataServices.Batch_JobsClient();
            batchClient.Open();
            DataServices.Testjob_Match_GlobalVariables myVar = new DataServices.Testjob_Match_GlobalVariables();
            myVar.ptd_FilePath = "D:
Jobs
Test";
            batchClient.Testjob_Match(myVar);
That all executes without error -- but the job is not started. Obviously I'm missing a step here but I can not figure out what is needed to acutally start the job execution from the Integrators Guide.
Any help would be appricated.

first test invoking the batch job webservice using SoapUI
does your client application logs the SOAP message that is sent to DS WebServer ?
Check the %LINK_DIR%\lg\webservices.log if there is any errors logged in it ?

Confirming method to secure web services through oracle web service manager

Hi All,
I am just wondering about the method to secure web service through oracle web service manager.
I have a unsecure web service "helloworld" which is deployed on JWSDP1.6 toolkit.I want to secure it through oracle web service manager.
Inorder to secure this unsecure web service,I use gateway(web service manager for securing web service using message level security through certificate).
So when client want to access the helloworld service,it contacts the gateway securely and gateway intern connect to original web service after decrypting and verification of the signature.When gateway gets response from the web service,it signs the response message and then encrypt and passs on to the client.
So my question is,is it the right way to secure web service?
As I am getting the following fault exception :
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">

what is the problem? how come i can't initiate the process?
i will be happy if i could get help..
thanks in advance

can you initate the process from the bpel console successfully?
if so can you use obtunnel from the installation to trace the soap message (that goes over the wire), my best guess in this case is a problem with a header (holding the wsa information) ..
after starting obtunnel it will liesten to a custom port, and will forward the request to the engine, so you need to point your client to this new port..

Calling Enterprise Services through xMII Web Service action block

Hi All,
I'm calling some Enterprise Service through xMII Web Service action block.
After providing URL and user credentials, I'm getting error "SOAP Service could not be loaded: The element type 'p' must be terminated by the matching end-tag '</p>'."
Can anyone point out what might be the reason ?
Thanks,
Sumit

If you haven't already, try using the browser from the xMII server machine rather than your own (client).
The error that you recieve usually means that instead of a WSDL an HTML is being returned when you use the WebService action block.
Possible reasons - as Jeremy pointed out - improper credentials or some error with the webservice itself.
Another thing you can possibly try out - use some web service analyser to access the webservice . There's one that goes by the name StrikeIron which is a freeware.Pretty neat tool.

"File Not Found" when addCourse through iTunesU web service.

I have problem to add Course to my institute's iTunesU site through Web Service.
I was able to get the xml doc back through showTree operation and here is part of it:
<Site>
<Name>my institute's name</Name>
<Handle>123</Handle>
<AggregateFileSize>63057465318</AggregateFileSize>

<Course>
<Name>course 1</Name>

</Course>
</Section>

I was able to get the uploadURL back too. The URL to get the uploadURL request:
https://deimos.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/API/GetUploadURL/myInstitute.edu.45 6?type=XMLControlFile
The uploadURL I got back looks like:
https://deimos2.apple.com/WebObjects/Files.woa/Upload/myInstitute.edu.456/X_1371095208_1a.43c06fa3.467dc4f2/%5Banonymous1371095208%5D/0046e71254900a071aa9241221a469d98ff1ef6fa973544c45ef9 5260dac6c64f05b10aefc
But when I use the uploadURL above and post the addCourse.xml:
<ITunesUDocument>
<AddCourse>
<ParentHandle>456</ParentHandle>
<Course>
<Name>Jing Test iTunesU Web service Course</Name>
<ShortName>Jing Test</ShortName>
</Course>
</AddCourse>
</ITunesUDocument>
The response I got
<error>File Not Found</error> File Not Found
I used myInstitute.edu.456 to get the uploadURL and set it to ParentHandle on addCourse.xml since 456 is the section handler in whoch I want to add the course.
I tried to remove 456 from the myInstitute.edu to get the uploadURL and then use it to add course, got the same error.
Is there something wrong with the URL I used to get the uploadURL?
here is the code and the values pass to the methodI used to send addCourse request:
url = uploadURl on above
name="file"
fileName="file.xml";
data=addCourse xml on above
contentType="text/xml"
public String invokeAction(String url,
String name,
String fileName,

I'm having a similar "File Not Found" error, but it's happening for any API request other than GetUploadURL. I'm sending a POST request to the GetUploadURL, and that part is working correctly, as I get a URL such as the following:
https://deimos2.apple.com/WebObjects/Files.woa/Upload/wvu.edu/X_1372071795_4d9433be.4c3fdd3d.4c3fdd3e/%22Chris%20Scharf%22%20%3Ccbscharf%40mail.wvu.edu%3E%20%28cbscharf%29%20%5B3258 7%5D/0046eaaaf078cf5d6b60f18926106a50a5050cf8f9c91a7608074e6d2949a8759017969ece
Then, I've tried using curl (within 90 seconds) to submit a simple XML document containing a ShowTree request:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ITunesUDocument>
<ShowTree>
<KeyGroup>most</KeyGroup>
</ShowTree>
</ITunesUDocument>
The command executed is "curl -F file=test.xml URL" (where URL is the URL retrieved from GetUploadURL. But I simply get "<error>File Not Found</error>"
I'm correctly sending credentials, since I'm getting upload URLs. And it's not an issue with the XML document, since it's not even getting to the server.

Problem with file receiving through abap web service

Hi experts,
I need to created web service for import file from .NET application into SAP.
ABAP function expect hexadecimal string (same as GUI_UPLOAD / GUI_DOWNLOAD) but hexadecimal string from C# is too long (double longer), and I have no idea how to convert it. Also there is a problem with code page...
Is there some better way to do this? Any idea is welcome!

Hi Nemanja,
Please bear in mind that your SAP system is based on UTF-8 encoding. Since you have the xstring length doubled, most probably your sender system uses UTF-16 encoding. So what you need to do is change the encoding used by your .NET application when sending the data to SAP.
Alternatively, you can try using XSL Transformations in ABAP to have the input data converted from UTF-16-encoded xstring to ABAP structures. You can find a little example in this thread: ABAP data to XML conv with UTF-8 encoding and custom namespace. The point is to start your XSLT with the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>.
Hope this helps,
Greg

Start BPM from WDJ with Web Service (in 7.2)

Hi,
I created a BPM process, and a new WDJ application to start the BPM process.
In the WDJ application, I created a new model (adaptive web service model) and I added this to the 'Used Models' of the application.
But, now, I want to start my BPM process after I click the "Submit" button. How can I do this?
In my RequestModel, I have my Model class with:
- ServiceData
- Request_StartOperation
- Response_StartOperation
(and my data element fields)
- Request_wbs
- Request_wbs_ca
- Request_wbs_tr
Now my question, How can i trigger the web service in the WDJ so the process can start?
wdDoInit:
RequestModel model = new RequestModel();
My event:
fireStartRequestCompleteEvent
Many thx!

Hi Hans,
You need to create an instance of Request_StartOperation and assign the values to the nodes/attributes under this. Once all the assignments are done, you need to bind it and execute the model as below example shows:
Lets take the model structure as below:
Model1 -> Request_StartOp -> StartOp -> Node1
Node1 -> Attr1, Attr2 (Node1 contains 2 attr and the type in WS schma is Node1Type and cardinality 1.1)
Model1 objModel = new Model1();
Request_STartOp objReq = new Request_StartOp(objModel);
StartOp objStart = new StartOp(objModel);
Node1Type objNode1 = new Node1Type(objModel);
objNode1.setAttr1(val1);
objNode1.setAttr2(val2);
objStartOp.setNode1(objNode1);
objReq.setStartOp(objStartOp);
wdContext.nodeRequest_StartOp().bind(objReq);
wdContext.nodeRequest_StartOp().currentRequest_StartOpElement().modelObject().execute();
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Arafat

How to know if a program is running through a Web Service?

Hello,
I have some FM's published as WS, and they are working fine. These FM's may be called either through Web Services or through ABAP. I need a consistent way to know when the FM is called via the WS or via ABAP - I notice that sy-tcode is empty when the FM is called via WS, but:
- Is it safe to test sy-tcode = INITIAL to conclude that the FM was called via WS?
- Is there another way to distinguish the two situations? (Please do not suggest different users)
- Can I force a "custom" sy-tcode content in the WS parameters that will allow me to detect the WS calls?
Regards,
Joã

A colleague of mine had a similar problem a year or two ago, and I suggested to him the use of the SYSTEM_CALLSTACK function module... the results of that should tell you what caused your function to be invoked e.g. you'll probably see an entry for SAPLHTTP_RUNTIME / FUNC / HTTP_DISPATCH_REQUEST in the call stack (in ECC5 at least) when invoked from a web service. There may be a more elegant way, but it seemed to work reliably.

How to pass server/domain credentials when accessing SSRS report through SSRS Web service programmatically?

I am trying to render SSRS Report located on my remote report server in my ASP.NET MVC 4 app through reporting services web service programmatically.
how can i send the server (windows/domain credentials) at runtime?
tried below but no success.
ReportingService2010 service = new ReportingService(); service.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password"); service.Url = "http://MyReportServer/ReportServer/";

Why are you using window domain credential ?
Simply "rs.Credentials =
System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials" should work.

Creating a Web Service to handle flow between BPEL process and XML Gateway

I am new to Web Services. I have never created one, yet I have the task of designing the following for a project.
Any help as to what steps I need to take would be very very helpful. There is a lot of information on XML, SOA and WSDL out there that it can get very confusing, and sometimes you just need someone to point the way
What I need to do is create a Custom Send and a Custom Receive Program (both web services) handle the message flow between an Enterprise BPEL processes and a Deployed XML Gateway.
BPEL compresses this XML business object document (for faster transmission), and sends remotely to this Custom Receive web service, which in turn calls a decompress java program and then send the document to the XML gateway inbound web service.
The Custom Send web service does just the opposite. It needs to take the business object document from XML gateway, call the compress java program and then send to the Enterprise BPEL.
In a nutshell...these Custom Send/Receive Web services handle the message flow between the Enterprise BPEL process and the Deployed XML Gateway.
What I need help on...
-Creating this in JDeveloper- where do I get started?
-How does a web service receive a compressed file sent to me via BPEL? Does it just sit there waiting for it?
-Is this a synchronous or asynchronous design?
-Will this be 2 web services (Send and Receive) or do I make 1 with 2 functionalities
-How do I call the java compress/decompress program within the web service? (this java function is already created and ready to be called)
-Is this decompressed business object file an XML schema and an XML message? Or just a message?
-I need to send this to the XML Gateway Web Service to load. How does that work?
-I have a Generic XML Gateway WSDL file...I assume I need to take all the info I get and map it to this template? Is this true? How do I do that?
Like I said, any help would be appreciated. Links answers to my many questions would be fabulous.
-Jason

If you are talking about simple XML transformation of the SOAP payload between the client calling your service and the final destination of the message you are routing, the ESB approach may be a better fit.
If you have more complex transformation in mind, with major processing and rework of the message in the intermediary, you may be better of with using the POJO approach. Write your service and embed a callout to the other service in your implementation. If the two services share the same Java Model, you may even be able to re-use the same Java Bean.
To get SOAP Element instead of Java bean, you just need to use the noDataBinding option with either genProxy and topDownAssemble (or assemble). See the WS-Guide [1] for details. Chapter 18 will give you all the details about the different WSA command line parameters.
Hope this helps,

Start GP Process from VC using Web Service with parameters

Hi,
II´m trying to instantiate a GP process from a Vc iView using a Web Service; I always used Instantiation via URL but using this method I don´t have any "return" data from GP saying "Ok - The process started succesfully".
The questions are:
1) Is possible to start a GP process via Web Services through a VC Flash iview? If so, is posible to send input parameters to the process via the web service?
2) Does the web service returns any message with the status of the process? ( something like: "the process started succesfully")
Best regards,
Marco.

1) Is possible to start a GP process via Web Services through a VC Flash iview? If so, is posible to send input parameters to the process via the web service?
A: Yes. You can send input parameters to the service through WS.
2) Does the web service returns any message with the status of the process? ( something like: "the process started succesfully")
A: Yes. The return message can be added to the WS. It depends on how do designed the WS.

How to write data into xml through web service

Hi,
I have a requirement to write the data into xml through a web service .send me related links and sample code if any.

hi kiran,
write the data into xml : We need suitable set of java Beans for handling WebService Data.
However, there are cases when you may prefer an alternate mapping, or when there just isn't a well-defined mapping for your particular schema construct (xsd:choice is a common example). For these cases, IBM® WebSphere® has introduced a new feature called Custom Data Binding that allows you to integrate alternate data binding technologies like JAX-B, EMF/SDO and XML beans, as well to define your own XML schema to Java mappings.
