Clarity

Hi Everyone,

I'm using CA Clarity 14.2 to fetch data in java using Webservice api which is available @ https://<server>:port/niku/wsdl, so using soapui to request and get response to check data but facing some fatal issue as shown below:

Soap Request:

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:obj="http://www.niku.com/xog/Object">

   <soapenv:Header>

      <obj:Auth>

         <!--Optional:-->

      <obj:SessionID>5175050__CFD78C77-A46F-4783-A3F7-7A65CA97F945</obj:SessionID></obj:Auth>

   </soapenv:Header>

   <soapenv:Body>

      <obj:ReadProject>

      </obj:ReadProject>

   </soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Soap Response :

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

   <soapenv:Header/>

   <soapenv:Body>

      <ReadProjectResponse xmlns="http://www.niku.com/xog/Object">

         <XOGOutput xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/status.xsd">

            <Status elapsedTime="0.0 seconds" state="FAILURE"/>

            <Statistics failureRecords="0" insertedRecords="0" totalNumberOfRecords="0" updatedRecords="0"/>

            <ErrorInformation>

               <Severity>FATAL</Severity>

               <Description>Missing NikuDataBus request document</Description>

               <Exception/>

            </ErrorInformation>

         </XOGOutput>

      </ReadProjectResponse>

   </soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

So can anyone please provide the reason which i'm missing.

Regards,

Are you using the CA API Gateway to access this API or accessing it directly from SoapUI? I want to make sure that this question is posted in the appropriate community. Thanks!

I moved this question to the CA PPM Community.

Between these lines/elements:

...

      <obj:ReadProject>

      </obj:ReadProject>

...

Needs to go your XOG-formatted request document.

If you have installed the XOG client you will find it comes with a folder named 'xml' containing examples of many different XOG-formatted request documents.

For your specific web service call (ReadProject) you probably want to refer to file prj_projects_read.xml in that folder.

Then include this in your web service call like the following (replacing your criteria as preferred):

...

      <obj:ReadProject>

<NikuDataBus xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../xsd/nikuxog_read.xsd">
  <Header version="6.0.11" action="read" objectType="project" externalSource="NIKU">
    <!-- you change the order by simply swap 1 and 2 number in the name attribute -->
    <args name="order_by_1" value="name"/>
    <args name="order_by_2" value="projectID"/>
    <args name="include_tasks" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_dependencies" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_subprojects" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_resources" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_baselines" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_allocations" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_estimates" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_actuals" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_custom" value="true"/>
    <args name="include_burdening" value="false"/>
  </Header>
  <Query>

      <Filter name="projectID" criteria="EQUALS">test</Filter>
  </Query>
</NikuDataBus>

      </obj:ReadProject>

...

Please try incorporating this and see if you can get anything.  Remember to change the criteria 'test' to an actual project ID from Clarity that your SOAP/XOG user actually has permissions to view, otherwise it still may not return results.

Thanks Nick, now able to do swiftly .
