Web Service Set Up For Dummies

I haven’t found anything useful and had to contract with Infor for implementation assistance.

The resource I was assigned would not help me understand how to use the tools and insisted on doing the work himself at a pace that I could not keep up.

It’s not helpful, but was my experience…

There are a few different considerations depending on java/ws-server or ws-client.

Which one are you setting up? I can give some general advise from what i have set up as i use both and have them locked down with TLS.

Jorge – maybe we can set a screen share up if we need to go further.

I reviewed your log file  – which had cloverleaf logs and the message handle, which appears you are sending SOAP, therefore should probably be using a PUT message. The reply in the log file appears to be an html/javascript response to a GET from their service. I would expect the health department to most likely want to use a SOAP service.

I have never used WS-RAW, because it is pretty bare bones and you have have procs to handle almost everything in the payload.

Do you have CAA (Cloverleaf Webservice Application Adapter) licensed? If so – I would use java/ws-client. That will allow you to let the java client handle the majority of the http and then allow you to create an XML package for xlates and SOAP payload formatting. It is pretty slick and creates the package for you when you input WSDL url in the protocol property set up.

Ok – we need to get a wsdl uri/url – and go from there.

Send me an email and we’ll set something up.

Hello, I am working on a WS interface to send ImmTrac VXUs.  I have the wsdl, but not clear on how to configure Cloverleaf to insert an HL7 2.x VXU message into the SOAP wrapper and set credentials.  Would appreciate any tips or advice.

Ok – you can definitely send the full hl7 message in the soap body to a department of health hosting a webservice that consumes the data. The WSDL you provided is very similar to the one i am using.

1. Create a single field VRL – mine is called ‘singleMessage.vrl’.
   1. See attachment
2. Create xlate to take VRL to XML(from the invoked XML package via the SOAP wsdl)
   1. use hard coded variables for the username/passwords in the copy action.
      1. 2 separate actions
      2. Send to the approprate xml node in the output of the xml
   2. Send the whole VRL singleMessage field to the ‘submitSingleMessage subnode of ‘tns:hl7Message’ or something similar depending on public health dept wsd.
3. Apply xlate to the route.
4. See example screenshots.
5. Also – to handle the inbound response, you can do the exact same thing in reverse.
   1. See attached word document on how i did that.

Word document attached.

Hello,

We have been asked to send immunizations VXU message to the state using SOAP and this is our first time so we are very new at using Web services.  The state provided us with URL/Endpoint information and web services credentials, but I’m not sure I really know how to proceed.  I have been reading the Infor Cloverleaf Application Adapter Web services User guide and other related articles to try to figure out what I need to do.  Should the state also provide me with the WSDL?  also not sure how to create the  soap envelope that is needed.  I am probably making this more difficult than what it is, so I apologize if I’m asking stupid questions.  Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

We are 6.2.0.2, windows, and we do have web services as we have the various GUI tools and protocols that are described within the document from Infor.  I would also assume that we would use the protocol of ws-client on the outbound thread to the state.

thanks

Good morning,  Thank you Paul for getting right back to me.

I was able to add the ?wsdl to the URL the state provided and was able to generate the xsd files that then compiled in the xml package manager

But I must be missing something else cause when I run xlate through the testing tool not sure it looks right as I don’t see the soap header.

Also the VXU message that we are getting from the system to send to the state sends Batch headers and trailers.  So I would assume I would need to do something with those also?

I have attached the setup that I have done based on the post.

Please let me know when you would have time to chat about this.  thank you again for all of the help and patience.

For  remove soap proc why not simply:

regexp -nocase — {^<S:Env.*?<return>(MSH.*?)</return>} $ReplyMsg  {} Hl7Msg

set Hl7Msg [string map {\n \r} $hl7Msg]\r

Should be the entire message

I did not look at other procs yet

Was gonna say I’ve done something similar like above above

set hl7RequestTag {<return.*?</return>}
set hl7RequestTagInfo [regexp -all -inline -nocase — $hl7RequestTag $msg]
set hl7Msg [lindex [string map {<return> {} </return> {} \n \r “amp;” {}} $hl7RequestTagInfo] 0]
