How to Configure a SOAP Send Port

  • Artikel

You can configure a SOAP send port either programmatically or by using the BizTalk Server Administration console.

How to Configure a SOAP Send Port Programmatically

The BizTalk Explorer object model exposes an adapter-specific interface for send ports named ITransportInfo that has the TransportTypeData read/write property. This property accepts a SOAP send port configuration property bag in the form of a name-value pair of XML strings. Note that to set this property in the BizTalk Explorer object model you must set the OutboundTransportLocation property of the ITransportInfo interface first.

The TransportTypeData property of the ITransportInfo interface is not required. If it is not set, the adapter uses the default values for the SOAP send port configuration, as indicated in the following table.

The following table lists the configuration properties you can set in the BizTalk Explorer object model for SOAP send ports.

Property name Type Description
URI String Virtual directory containing the Web service on the deployment server.
Username String User name to specify for accessing the target Web service.

Default value: Blank
Password String User password to use for authentication with the server.

Default value: Blank
ClientCertificate String Thumbprint of client SSL certificate.

Default value: Blank
AffiliateApplicationName String The name of the SSO application to use to redeem the ticket for client credentials.

The AffiliateApplicationName is mutually exclusive to a Username and Password pair.

Default value: Blank
UseProxy Boolean Indicates whether the SOAP send port uses a proxy server to access the target Web service. The proxy server can be shared by all SOAP send ports.

Default value: False
ProxyAddress String Address of the HTTP proxy to use for the Web service call.

Default value: Blank
ProxyPort Integer Port of the HTTP proxy to use for the Web service call.

Default value: Blank
ProxyUsername String User name to use for the proxy.

Default value: Blank
ProxyPassword String Password to use for the proxy.

Default value: Blank

The following code shows the format to use to set these properties:

<CustomProps>  
   <URI vt="8"/>  
   <ClientCertificate vt="8"/>  
   <Password vt="8">Encrypted</Password>  
   <ProxyAddress vt="8"/>  
   <ProxyPassword vt="8">Encrypted</ProxyPassword>  
   <ProxyPort vt="3"/>  
   <ProxyUsername vt="8"/>  
   <UseProxy vt="11"/>  
   <Username vt="8"/>  
   <AffiliateApplicationName vt="8"/>  
</CustomProps>

How to Configure a SOAP Send Port with the BizTalk Server Administration Console

You can set SOAP send port adapter variables in the BizTalk Server Administration console. If properties are not set for the send port, the default send handler values set in the BizTalk Server Administration console are used.

To configure variables for a SOAP send port

  1. In the BizTalk Server Administration console, create a new send port or double-click an existing send port to modify it. For more information, see How to Create a Send Port. Configure all of the send port options and specify SOAP for the Type option in the Transport section of the General tab.

  2. On the General tab, in the Transport section next to Type, click Configure.

  3. In the SOAP Transport Properties dialog box, on the General tab, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Web Service URL Specify the address of the Web service you want to call. Note: The URI for a send port or receive location cannot exceed 256 characters.
    Authentication Indicate the authentication method used by the Web service you are calling.

    Options:

    - Anonymous . The default setting.
    - Basic . The SOAP connection sends the user name and password in plain text.
    - Digest . The SOAP connection sends the password in an encrypted format.
    - NTLM . Neither the user name nor the password is sent over a SOAP connection. The SOAP adapter always uses the credentials of the process under which the SOAP send adapter runs for this authentication type.
    Credentials Specify the type of credentials to use.

    Only available if the Authentication type is Basic or Digest.

    Options:

    - Do Not Use Single Sign-On
    User name
    The user name to use for authentication with the destination server. If the Authentication type property is Anonymous or NTLM, this option is disabled. This property requires a value if Basic or Digest is selected, and Enterprise Single Sign-On is not used.
    Minimum length: 0
    Maximum length: 256
    Password
    The password to use for authentication with the destination server. If the Authentication type property is Anonymous or NTLM, this option is disabled. This property requires a value if Basic or Digest is selected, and Single Sign-On is not used.
    Minimum length: 0
    Maximum length: 256
    - Use Single Sign-On
    Specify whether to use Single Sign-On to retrieve client credentials for authentication with the destination server.
    Affiliate Application
    Specifies the affiliate application to use for Single Sign-On. For information about populating this list, see SSO Affiliate Applications.
    Minimum length: 0
    Maximum length: 256
    Client Certificate Thumbprint Specify the thumbprint of the client certificate to use for establishing a connection.

    Example: 01 23 45 67 89 AB CD EF 01 23 45 67 89 AB CD EF 01 23 45 67

    Minimum length: 0

    Maximum length: 59

  4. In the SOAP Transport Properties dialog box, on the Proxy tab, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Use Handler's default proxy configuration Specify the send port proxy handler configuration. When true, the port will use the proxy settings specified at the handler level. When false, the send adapter will use the proxy information specified on the send port.

    The default setting is true.
    Do not use proxy Indicate whether the SOAP send handler uses a proxy server.
    Use proxy Indicate whether the SOAP send handler uses a proxy server. The proxy server can be shared by all SOAP send ports.
    Server Specifies the name of the proxy server.

    This property only requires a value if Use proxy is selected.

    Type: String

    Minimum length: 0

    Maximum length: 256
    Port Specify the port the SOAP send handler uses.

    This property only requires a value if Use proxy is selected.

    Default Value: 80

    Type: Long

    Minimum value: 0

    Maximum value: 65535 Note: Specifying a value of 0 indicates to use the default value, which is port 80.
    User name Specify the user name to use for authentication. If you use Windows integrated authentication, the user name includes the domain, domain\username. If you use Basic or Digest authentication, the user name does not include domain\.

    This property only requires a value if Use proxy is selected.

    Type: String

    Minimum length: 0

    Maximum length: 256
    Password Specify the password to use for authentication.

    This property only requires a value if Use proxy is selected.

    Type: String

    Minimum length: 0

    Maximum length: 256

  5. In the SOAP Transport Properties dialog box, on the Web Service tab, do the following:

    Use this To do this
    Orchestration Web Port Specify to use the Web service that is exposed at the Web Service URL listed on the General tab.

    This is the default setting.
    Assembly name Specify the name of the assembly containing the Web service proxy. This field can be populated by clicking the browse button to find an assembly. After selecting the assembly this box is populated with the fully qualified name of the assembly. Note: The specified assembly must be present on all BizTalk Servers at runtime.
    Type name Specify the name of the class that contains the Web method to be invoked. This can be selected from a list of types contained within the assembly.
    Method name Specify one of the methods in the list box or choose the option to "Specify later". If the option to "Specify later" is chosen, the Web method must be set by some other means, such as a pipeline component. In this scenario, the web method must be written to the Soap Adapter MethodName context property.
    SOAP 1.2 Specify to generate proxy code that will support the SOAP 1.2 protocol. If this option is left cleared, SOAP 1.1-compliant proxy code will be generated.

    Default value: cleared

  6. Click OK and OK again to save settings.
