  1. Log in to the API Publisher and click ADD NEW API
  2. Select I Have a SOAP Endpoint. You see the following two options to create APIs for SOAP backend.
    • Pass Through – Create a pass through proxy for SOAP requests coming to the API Gateway.
    • Generate REST APIs – This option is used to generate REST API definitions from the given WSDL URL.
  3. Select Generate REST APIs. Provide the WSDL URL given below for the SOAP backend and click Start Creating

    Code Block

  5. The generated API definitions are added to the API as shown below.
    Image Removed Image Added

    Note

    The definition properties are A REST API method is mapped with the corresponding SOAP operation through a Swagger, vendor-specific field x-xpath, which is used to map the SOAP binding operation parameters with the REST parameters. If a parameter does not have this field it is not mapped with a backend operation. To ensure the mapping functions smoothly, do not make any changes to the properties.

    Go to the Implement tab and view the SOAP

    - x-wso2-soap. Note that this should not be edited . A parameter without this field cannot be mapped with a SOAP backend operation.

    See the sample REST operation given below.

    Code Block
      /checkPhoneNumber:
        post:
          operationId: CheckPhoneNumber
          parameters:
        ...
          x-wso2-soap:
            soap-action: "http://ws.cdyne.com/PhoneVerify/query/CheckPhoneNumber"
            soap-operation: CheckPhoneNumber
            namespace: "http://ws.cdyne.com/PhoneVerify/query"
            x-soap-version: "1.2"

    The operationId parameter is used to map the REST resource with the corresponding SOAP operation.

    Image AddedThe following sample shows the generated API In-sequence for a GET method with query parameters.

    Code Block
    GET https://<host_name>:8243/phoneverify/1.0.0/CheckPhoneNumber?Phone%20Number=XXXXXXXX&LicenseKey=0
    Code Block

    is a sample Synapse based XML configuration which reads some parameters from the request path and constructs the SOAP payload required for the backend (target) services.

    <property name="REST_URL_POSTFIX" scope="axis2" action="remove"/>

    <property expression="$url:LicenseKeyLicenceKey" name="req.var.LicenseKeyLicenceKey"/>
    
    
    <payloadFactory description="transform" media-type="xml">
      <format>
      <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemaswww.xmlsoapw3.org/2003/05/soap/-envelope/" xmlns:web="http://ws.cdyne.com/PhoneVerify/query">

     	<arg evaluator="xml" expression="get-property('req.var.PhoneNumber')"/>

      </args>
    </payloadFactory>
    <property description="messageProperty" name="messageType" scope="axis2" type="STRING" value="application/soap+xml"/>

    The incoming JSON message parameters are stored using properties. The SOAP payload needed for the backend is generated using a payload factory mediator.

  10. Enter the SOAP endpoint URL. The endpoint type should be the HTTP/SOAP Endpoint as shown below.
