SOAP Adapter 

Purpose

The SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP messages between remote clients or Web service servers and the Integration Server or the PCK.

In the SOAP adapter, you can specify security settings to be used to sign/verify the SOAP body. In addition, you can specify the standard to be used for signing/verifying the SOAP message.

For FAQs about the SOAP adapter, see SAP Note 856597.

Integration

You configure the adapter in the configuration part of the Integration Builder or the PCK.

The receiver SOAP adapter can be used for mapping lookups. See also: Mapping Lookups
