Biztalk REST API updating Sendport settings

Mattias Thurgren 0

We are using Biztalk 2020 and have enabled the REST API to use for our needs. One of the things we want to do is to script and update the tracking settings on Recieveport, Sendport, Orchestration and pipelines.

Everything works except for Send Port.

Whatever I send (as long as it is in correct format) I get back an error:

ERROR: Adapter is not a valid adapter.

Please take note of the extra space between the words "Adapter" and "is" - it seems that there is missing something, like the log has a value that is not filled (empty string).

I have even tried first to get the existing settings by the swagger page (GET): http://localhost/BizTalkManagementService/SendPorts/portname

And sent it back in the same exact format to (PUT): http://localhost/BizTalkManagementService/SendPorts/portname

I get the same error message as described above.

Is this perhaps a bug in the API?

What adapter does the send port use?

Not a direct answer to your problem, but I use BTDF and set the tracking settings for different environments by tokenizing them, see https://cdijkgraaf.wordpress.com/2017/08/11/tokenizing-the-biztalk-tracking-settings/

@Colin Dijkgraaf I've tried all of my sendports that uses different adapters. File, FTP etc.

The reason I believe this is a bug is that I first EXPORT the sendport's configuration and then try to IMPORT it without any changes - and this gives the error.

Recieveports works wonders. Pipeline works wonders. Orchestration works wonders. Only the sendports that get this error.

I've tried on different send ports with different ports. All leads to the same issue as described.

I believe this is a bug because it works to export/import on all other types. Like recieve ports, orchestration and pipelines.
