Configuring the SOAP Adapter in the Integration Directory/PCK 

Use

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

The receiver SOAP adapter also allows you to send SOAP messages using the SMTP protocol.

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.

Sender agreements that are assigned a SOAP sender adapter can be published in the Services Registry.

More information: Publishing Services in the Services Registry.

You have the option of using the Axis framework in the SOAP adapter.

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