Retrieve SOAP Body from the request

[Legacy User]

Hi Everyone,

 

I am trying to retrieve only the Soap Body from the SOAP request in the SOAP Webservice published on API Gateway but I am not able to get only the Soap Body. I have tried multiple options like : ${request.mainpart.Body}  or ${request.mainpart.soap:Body}.

 

Can anyone please suggest how to retrieve it ?

what happens if you try just request.mainpart

As mentioned above, just ${request.mainpart} should give you the body.

This and other related variables can be found here: Message Layer Context Variables - CA API Gateway - 9.3 - CA Technologies Documentation

As MichielHelder and didsi01 mention, the ${request.mainpart} gives you the body of the message which is the Soap Envelope. I believe you are interested in the Soap Body, which you can select with the 

Evaluate Request XPath Assertion.

Thanks Remco. That was helpful but now I need to save the original Soap Action and use the same soap Action while sending the request to Salesforce. how can I save the original Soap Action that was sent and use it further in the code ? Thanks in advance,

Depends. Is it in the http header or is it part of a WS-Addressing soap header?

 

You can use the Require WS-Addressing Assertion to get the soap action from the soap header. For adding a WS-Addressing header in the xml use the Add WS-Addressing Assertion (several way for specifying the Action!)
