Properties
Connection
Type: Connection InputOutput
The Connection Property
Url
Type: String
The URL to the endpoint.
WsdlUrl
Type: String
The URL to the WSDL for the endpoint. This is typically the service endpoint with the text ?wsdl appended). If omitted, the Url property will be used to obtain the WSDL.
CustomBindingMessageEncoding
Type: List
Default - Custom binding will not be used
Binary - Binary encoding will be specified in a custom binding
Mtom - MTOM encoding will be specified in a custom binding. Note that MTOM is only available in Full Trust environments and will therefore the Node must be run through a DropPoint
DontFilterPropertiesByAttribute
Type: Boolean
Indicates that all service operation properties should be included rather than only those decorated with DataContract (or equivalent) attributes. Try this option if you are not seeing certain properties in the Node Samples.
ServiceName
Type: String
When the endpoint hosts multiple services, provide the name of the service you want the connection to use. Normally this Property can be left blank. If the endpoint defines multiple services, an error listing the available names will be thrown when attempting to obtain samples or invoke the Node. Place the name of one of these services in this field to enable the Node to target the correct one.
Username
Type: String
The Username to be passed as part of a Client Credential.
Password
Type: String
The Password to be passed as part of a Client Credential.
Action
Type: String Input
The SOAP Action to be performed - see Remarks.
RequestXml
Type: Xml Input
The XML request payload - see Remarks.
CustomHeaders
Type: Multiline Text Input
Provides a way to set custom HTTP headers on the request. Provide one header per row in the form Header-Name: Value
ResponseXml
Type: Xml Output
The XML response payload - see Remarks.
RequestOutputXml
Type: Xml Output
If the SOAP Service defines output parameters, they will be presented here.
Remarks
The SOAP Request Node permits integration with any SOAP service. Begin by adding the SOAP Request Node and then creating a new Connection for the Node.
Provide the WSDL endpoint in the WsdlUrl property and the endpoint in the Url property, then click the Refresh Metadata button, finally test and save the Connection. The description of the SOAP service will now be stored within Flowgear against the Url you have specified.
Back on the Workflow, the Node Samples list will now contain a list of all transactions supported by the endpoint that was specified. Select the desired sample in order to begin formulating the request.
