I am using SOA suite and developing a BPEL process. I want to add a header to the request going to a partner link. I have added a variable with a messageType picked from WSDL of partner. Used Header tab and added this variable to request.
But while running, I couldn't see this header in request xml. The variable which I have created is properly initialized and holding the value as expected.
Tools: SOA, BPEL 1.1, JDeveloper 11.1.1.5
You can add the desired header as shown here

As part of my Twilio Studio flow I am using the HTTP request step to get data from an external database that responds back with the agent skill to be used when routing the call however I am unable to figure out how to use this variable in the send to flex step. Is it possible to dynamically set the workflow in the send to flex step from a variable?
I found the solution passing Json in the send to flex step and using filters at the workflow level.
I currently need to configure a dynamic send port to connect with an ASMX web service that does not conform to WS-I Basic Profile v1.1. Specifically, R9981, which states "An ENVELOPE MUST have exactly zero or one child elements of the soap:Body element." The web service I'm consuming is expecting a body with multiple elements, causing the SOAP body to look like:
<Body>
<FirstElement />
<SecondElement />
</Body>
I have tried using both WCF-BasicHttp and WCF-Custom adapters with no success. It seems that the BizTalk WCF adapters can just not handle a SOAP body with more than one element.
On the receive location, I wrap the message under one element using a template to solve the issue of the message traveling through BizTalk and I thought I could simple intercept the message with a custom send pipeline / custom component to strip out the wrapping element. I then tried a custom behavior extension with a message inspector, but that still occurs before BizTalk's WCF "BizTalkBodyWriter" does its work.
As I'm using the ESB 2.1 toolkit, I cannot use the HTTP adapter to create my SOAP message from scratch. My last thought would be I would need to create a custom WCF LOB adapter, but before I go down that route I want to make sure I'm not overcomplicating things here and there isn't an easy way I've just overlooked.
The solution was to create a custom message encoder. I followed WCF Interoperability and Extensibility - Part One as a guide.
I want to log the assembly version information into a log file each time my WCF web service is called. I know that in an application the My object has an Application object which has the Info structure, that contains the Version string that I can use. How can I get the version information for the WCF service to a log?
You will need to create either a separate service method GetServiceVersionInfo() that you can call when needed, or you could include the service's version info in some headers that travel along with the message.
If you want to add header to each and every message, the best way to go is create an extension called a MessageInspector. This is a small chunk of code that intercepts every message (in your case: every message going out of the server) and adds some header (or manipulates the actual message).
Read up on Message inspectors in this blog post showing how to write a message inspector, or read the MSDN docs on the topic to get started.
I'm running into this problem when trying to call a SOAP Web Service from within a Biztalk orchestration.
The Web Service is an abapi exposed by SAP as a SOAP Web Service, and the signature of the web method I want to call is something like this:
Operation(param1 as System.String, param2 as System.String, param3 ArrayOfSomeClass)
When I see the schemas generated I noticed that only 'ArrayOfSomeClass' and 'SomeClass' were generated. But I don't see any schema that represents the whole request.
I also noticed that a web port type was generated, and the request message is represented as a multi-part message. The parts of this message contains all the scalar parameters (param1, param2) and also the array.
I know I can just use the assignment shape and fill the message by code, but this is not what I want because I would like to map another message to the web service request.
Is this possible? Any one had a similar issue?
Thanks in advance!
You observation is correct, schemas won't be generated for simple types and its clearly documented here and explains how you should work with such types.

XSD will not contain nodes for simple parameter types
When you add a Web reference and the Web method has a parameter that is a simple type, the generated XSD will not contain nodes for that parameter. Instead, the multipart message that is generated will contain a part that is of the simple type. The orchestration should handle this message part appropriately. If it is a part of the request to the Web service, manually assign the value to that part with a message assignment shape. If it is a part of the response from the Web service, manually access that part in an expression shape to see the value.
I didn't get your second point
I would like to map another message to
the web service request.
I have an "enevelope" schema and a body schema and I have setup the correct properties on the "envelope" to point to the body.
I also have a property schema for promoting a value in the body message so that i can route on it.
I set up a File drop receive location and two send ports. Each send port subscribing on a different value of the promoted property. The receive location uses XmlReceive and the send ports both use XmlTransmit.
When i drop one envelope message at the Rcv location, Bts picks it up, splits it, promotes the property and my send ports pick up the relevant messages and do their thing.
File drop was fine for testing, but the real scenario is slightly different.
I want clients to submit "envelope" schemas containing multiple document elements via Wcf
So i published the envelope schema as a Wcf endpoint using the publishing wizard. Let it create the new Receive location. Wired up a Wcf client to talk to this endpoint and submitted a message.
Without changing anything on the Send ports in BizTalk I expected the same result;
However I now get a routing failure.
If i remove the extra filter in the Send port that filters on the promoted property it works, no routing failure.
So ... it would appear that the promoting of my property is not happening on the Wcf receive location.
I have checked; the Wcf receive location is using XmlReceive.
What gives?
How do i fix this?
I would guess that the namespace of your incoming message has changed as a result of changing it to use WCF.
This can cause the property promotion to no longer match the incoming message.
You can view the property promotions in the tracked messages in the BizTalk server admin tools.
