SOAP Receiver Connector

SOAP receiver connector is used to send requests to SOAP-based services over the MIP platform. This can be used to retrieve data from a service, perform a transaction, or interact with a resource. It allows defining a specific address and action to which the request should be forwarded. This ensures that the request is processed in the right place to perform a specific operation on the target service.

Required Connector Properties​

  • SOAP Address: The SOAP address contains the basic URL structure and specific service points of a web service. This address indicates the functions, resources and accessible points offered by the service.

  • SOAP Action: SOAP Action specifies the purpose of the request and identifies a specific service method, usually expressed as a URI (Uniform Resource Identifier), and determines the function offered by the service.

  • SOAP Envelope: SOAP Envelope specifies whether the returned response will be included in the SOAP Envelope. SOAP Envelope is an XML-based structure that determines the beginning and end of messages transmitted within the SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) protocol. SOAP Envelope forms the basis of a SOAP message and contains the message's header, body, and other required attributes. Each SOAP message consists of a "header" and a "body" section contained in an "envelope".

  • Authorization Type: It is a header type used to determine whether the user making the request is authorized or not. This header may contain a username and password, an API key, or other authentication information to verify to the server the identity of the party making the request.

  • Authentication Resource Name: This variable represents pre-registered username and password information for use in services. Each Authentication Resource Name contains authentication information for a user or application.
