Support of Multipart form data with Plain HTTP (Sender) adapter

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We are trying to send (HTTP POST) a mulitipart form data to Plain HTTP adapter from an external system. But getting "Multipart-documents not supported" error response from PI. According below SAP help it appears like multiform is supported with HTTP Plain.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/44/8f54b8b01e3673e10000000a114a6b/content.htm

Is there any special setting within HTTP Service (t-code SICF) we need to enable in PI to activate multipart feature in HTTP Plain adapter?

Or PI's HTTP Plain adapter (Sender) does not support multiprt form data at all? Please clarify

Thank you!
