DATA PAGE- SOAP Integration
Hi,
I am fairly new to PEGA and would appreciate some guidance on this regard. I apologise if my questions do not make sense.
SCENARIO
I have a data page which is currently pointing to my DATA class. I have a connect SOAP rule which is created by the wizard which lies in X-X-Work-X-Int class. I need to do a connect from this data page using this coonect SOAP as a data source. I created my request data transform in the same class as the connect SOAP class. However, I need to create my response in the DATA class.
PROBLEM:
Cannot map the response received from the SOAP service using the response data transform since the context is not correct
CAUSE:
The base class rule activity pxcallConnector(step 1 Java) creates a new page pyDataSource {resultPageName = "pyDataSource" + System.currentTimeMillis}. For the request since the class is the same, I am in the same context and the request parameters are passed on to this pyDataSource123131231 page. However, now the SOAP response is on this arbitary page, but I am not able to reference this page on my response data transform since the context has changed. What should i do to reference this page without modifying the out of box rules. I tried a private edit of the activity rule and removed the time portion, so the page created was pyDataSource and it worked fine.

The easiest way to get this integration working is to create the response data transform by entering a name in the response data transform field on the data page rule form and using the rule opener to launch a "New rule" tab. Data transforms created from the data page rule have prefilled template for the data source page context, among other things. You don't have to worry about the actual name of the data source page on the clipboard.

Hi Rochwyn,
Hope the response and request mapping models are created by the wizard itself. then it should have the context of the page used for request and response for the Connector.
Could you please clarify me, Where you are using the data page in this scenario?
I couldn't get your statement "I need to do a connect from this data page using this connect SOAP as a data source".
Thanks.
Hi,
So the wizard was created by the team using the old wizard(connector and metadata wizard). I am not sure how creating something with the wizard can help to get the correct context of the page when the page name is dynamic and not static. The page is randomly created as "pydatasource+ current time in millis seconds". The dynamic page is created in work-Int class because whean the SOAP is invoked , it is in work-Int class. It call the pxcallConnector Activity that creates the page since the Data page class and the SOAP class is different
DataPage-- Is in data class
Data Source - Work-Int class
Request DT - Work-Int class
Response DT - Data class

Hi Rochwyn, please try what I mentioned in my above post. Don't go by the name of the data source page as it appears on the clipboard. And since you are talking about SOAP connector here, neither the old wizard nor the new one actually create request/response data transforms and data page. So, the manual process you are following is correct. Only that you need to create the data transforms by clicking the rule opener on the data page rule form.
