REST to IDOC scenario(REST sender)

[buddhika_krishantha]

Hi,

I'm trying to expose IDOC as a REST service, which means 3rd party can send data to REST service and it will create and IDOC in SAP system. I have used the external definition to configure the same.

May I know the element name and the namespace name to use in the REST sender channel?

I have configured as below, please let me know anything wrong with this configuration.

External Definition -

Operation Mapping -

REST sender-

HI Buddhika,

This looks correct, but please test and if the namespace is wrong set the sender interface namesapce.

Even please, review the next step by step document:

Tip: if you see issues with your XSD, then open test tab, copy the IDOC xml, and convert that new XML into a new XSD, the import it into PI again. Here you can convert XML to XSD, just if is required: https://www.liquid-technologies.com/online-xml-to-xsd-converter

Hi Azael,

Thanks for your valuable comment. In here I'm directly using IDOC in target operation in operation mapping, not a service interface. Anyidea how to do the configuration in sender channel?

Hi bkrishantha

Try the next configuration, in my opinion, could be the same configuration instead of Service interface you use the IDOC information:

• Element Name: IDOC_Name (tip test what is the correct idoc name IDOC.IDOC or only IDOC single name)
• Element Namesapce: IDOC namespace (this namespace is standard)

If this helps you please mark as resolved, if you have doubts feel free to ask me,

Success
