Layer7 API Management

I'm having problems sending the parameters of the request to my web services routing in the HTTP (S) Routing Properties I define the variable type userRequest Message.

In the http method I select the Automatic option, also tried with post method and the Headers tab SoapAction habiliete the option.

Returning error if failed (status 500) and log file can web service I can see the following error

Can someone help me out.

i may be mistaken, but since you created a new 'message' variable 'userRequest', I'm not sure you can specify 'original_value' as no value has existed yet for the header SOAPAction for that specific message context. You'll need to populate this with something manually.

I'll test and confirm shortly.

Confirmed.

What the backend sees:

(using 'original_value' populating the headers of a newly created 'message')

all headers: connection:Keep-Alive,

             content-length:4,

             content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8,

             host:127.0.0.1:8080,

             user-agent:Layer7-SecureSpan-Gateway/v8.2.00-b4710

(injecting a header value)            

all headers: connection:Keep-Alive,

             content-length:4,

             content-type:text/xml; charset=utf-8,

             host:127.0.0.1:8080,

             soapaction:boom,

             user-agent:Layer7-SecureSpan-Gateway/v8.2.00-b4710

Hi Doyle

Thanks for the answer, add the value in headers "orginal_value" and runs the answer.

Enrique,

From the error and the screen captures you need to enter a value for the SOAPAction header in the HTTP routing as there will not be an original value assigned to the userRequest context variable.

Hi Stephen,

Yes, that was the problem exactly "original_value" the header.

Thanks for you help .
