Using HTTP adapter to retrieve XML from a Webservice

  • 1.  Using HTTP adapter to retrieve XML from a Webservice

    Posted 11/15/12 10:12 AM

    Hello,

    We are currently implementing an interface that is expected to pass parameter to a webservice and receive a XML in return. This is something we haven't done before, so need some pointers.

    We were able to use the HTTP adapter and execute a simple call to a webservice that returns a text

    GET("HTTP", "-METHOD GET -TV -URL http://XXXX/XXXX/getxxxx?mrn=12345")

    When we use the same method to retrieve an XML it errors out.

    GET("HTTP", "-METHOD GET -TV -URL http://XXXXX/XXXXX/getSummary?xxxx=5042149&xxxxDate=2012-10-19&xxxxTime=13:00:00")

    More details below.

    Appreciate your help.

    Thanks!
