Multipart/form-data support in receiver HTTP AAE adapter

[subhro_de]

Hi ,

I am trying to use the multipart/form request functionality of the HTTP AAE adapter in PI 7.3,

Using the comm channel the following multipart message needs to be sent :

POST /stpserver/upload HTTP/1.1

User-Agent: Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.0-rc3

Host: qc.int.fxall.com

Content-Length: 1702

Content-Type: multipart/form-data;

boundary=Oi2W-TQU6DBkXQ8g7jdrQYidRK0jI1

--Oi2W-TQU6DBkXQ8g7jdrQYidRK0jI1

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="abc1"

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

test1

--Oi2W-TQU6DBkXQ8g7jdrQYidRK0jI1

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="abc2"

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

test2

--Oi2W-TQU6DBkXQ8g7jdrQYidRK0jI1

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="abc3"; filename="file

v4.xml"

Content-Type: application/octet-stream; charset=ISO-8859-1

Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary

<fxTradeExt>

<fxall category="client" version="1.0">

................

In the comm channel have set the Set Form parameter and "Main Payload Parameter Name" to abc3.

Set Multipart and Specify Content Details are set accordingly. The issue is where should we set the other form-data (abc1/abc2 in the above example) that is to be passed to the receiver.

The message log shows the following relevant debug messages:

ContentType is multipart/form-data;

boundary="----=_Part_948_1526565974.1329033780891"

However the log also mentions :

Request is single part

Could anyone please advise if this is feasible in HTTP AAE.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Subhro!

As far as I know, if you use "Set Form" and "Main Payload Parameter Name", you'll get only one parameter value as main payload. You can try not to set "Set Form" parameter, than you should get message with the set of payloads.

Hi,

Trying to now use java mapping to generate the HTTP Stream - however facing one issue . The Content-Type is always added by the adapter and not finding a way to stop this - can someone please help me with any advise.

POST /BAT/TaO/FXall/test/upload? HTTP/1.1

Content-Type: application/xml; charset=UTF-8 --- added by HTTP Adapter

User-Agent: SAP HttpClient v1.0

Host: 10.94.40.18

Content-Length: 1681

Content-Type: multipart/form-data; -- added by Java mapping

boundary=Oi2W-TQU6DBkXQ8g7jdrQYidRK0jI1

Please note HTTP AAE adapter is being used.

Thanks and Regards

Hello Subhro, could you please specify briefly how did you finally solve this (if you did)?

I'm in exactly the same situation, having to send three multipart parameters, one of them being a text file. I'd like to know basically what is required. Did you use HTTP_AAE adapter + Java code based mapping?

Many thanks
