How to invoke WSDL Service protected with API KEY in IBM BAW ?

  • 1.  How to invoke WSDL Service protected with API KEY in IBM BAW ?

    Posted Tue May 09, 2023 05:22 AM

    Hi Community ,
    I have implement a WSDL Service in IBM BAW 20.0.0.2 ,my Backend service is secured using API Key .After reading the IBM BAW documentation i found that i have to send the API key by Adding SOAP headers to a SOAP request message by following this documentation Adding SOAP headers to a SOAP request message but it didn't work for me

    Hi Oussama,

    you describe your scenario as if
    1. IBM BAW 20.0.0.2 (out of support) is the client
    2. IBM BAW calls a SOAP Web Service provided by some backend
    3. The backend chose to protect either the WSDL file or runtime invocations to the service or both using API key (which is not particularly common for SOAP services).

    If that's true, IBM BAW has to do what the server expects. If the server expects the API key in a HTTP header or SOAP header is up to the provider of the service. SOAP header is uncommon for API key, I think.

    Regards,
