SOAP generic examples
- Peter Atthem
To parse SOAP messages iHub uses npm: xmldom this can either be used by using mustache function "{{{getElementByTagNameNS payload 'http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/' 'NumberToWordsResult' 0}}}" or scripted variables.
Number Example
Sending SOAP
To run the convert number soap api, create a new Web Action like below.
POST: https://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/NumberConversion.wso
Change the Content-Type to value text/xml header and add the SOAPAction header with value http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/SOAPsqlbatch
Reading SOAP
This example we created a issue comment which the body "{{{getElementByTagNameNS payload 'http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/' 'NumberToWordsResult' 0}}}"
This will take the response from the first call and read the value and add it as a comment on the issue.
We used the Issue Commented template below for “Add new action”
For more advanced parsing of messages use ScriptedVariable
Here is an example of the same function that the mustache uses but in script
const xmlDoc = domParser.parseFromString(response.data, 'text/xml');
const resultNode = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagNameNS('http://www.dataaccess.com/webservicesserver/', 'NumberToWordsResult')[0];
return resultNode.textContent.trim();
