Layer7 API Management

I am trying to configure my policy to accept SWA (Soap with Attachments). I am currently seeing "Service does not accept multipart data" in the logs. When I add the Assertion  "Validate SOAP Attachments" I get this Warning: "This service does not declare any MIME input parameters ("multipart/related") This assertion only works with soap services with attachments." So maybe a pointer on an assertion to get this service to declare MIME input parameters?

Any pointers on what assertion or service configuration I need to include to accept multipart data would be greatly appreciated.

Also let me know where in any documentation this is noted.

Thanks!

Hi James,

You have to publish an endpoint on the Gateway using a WSDL that declares attachments.  To access the Publish SOAP Web Service Wizard, do any of the following:

• Click Publish SOAP Web Service on the Home Page
• Select [Tasks] > Publish SOAP Web Service from the Main Menu
• Right-click a folder within the Services and Policies list and then select Publish SOAP Web Service.

The Validate SOAP Attachments assertion will fail under any of the following conditions:

• the request message does not contain an attachment
• the request message contains an attachment that was not declared in the WSDL
• the attachment is too large
• the attachment is declared an MIME Content-Type different from the expected type
• a signature is required but not present for the attachment.
