Capturing a SOAP Request Using FILEDEF SOAPTSCQ in a Procedure

You can use the command FILEDEF SOAPTSCQ within a procedure to captrue the SOAP request being generated and store it in a designated location in the file system. Since the SOAP request itself is not actually executed, 0 records are returned in the report.

Example: Using FILEDEF SOAPTSCG to Capture a SOAP Request

In this example, the procedure reports against a Web Service operation that has the two parameters: SYMBOL and USERNAME. The generated SOAP request is stored in a file called SOAPrequest.xml.

FILEDEF
SOAPTSCQ DISK C:\IBI\APPS\XIGNITE\SOAPrequest.xml
TABLE FILE XQUOTES _GETQUOTE
PRINT SYMBOL1 LAST
WHERE SYMBOL EQ 'IBM'
WHERE USERNAME EQ 'myusername'
END

The following is the content of SOAPrequest.xml after the procedure is executed:

<soap_action>http://www.xignite.com/services/GetQuote</soap_action>
