Mapping Connect SOAP Response to Clipboard
Hello Guys,
I successfully applied my SOAP-connect and when I traced it, I can see the result of the expected response in the xmlStream, but, my question is how to map this response to the clipboard, so, I can use it in a local variable for example?
Thanks,
Rosy

Thanks a lot Kevin,
My generated Connect SOAP(attached) have as response Parse XML (attached). It is also generated from connect and Data Mappings. How to parse the xml in my activity after calling Connect-SOAP ? Sorry for asking too much questions , but, it is my first exercise with integration.
Thnhx in advance,

As you are new, you could look into the OOTB soap and get more idea on the mapping.
Try getHolding connect soap rule(provided OOTB) which has parse rule in its mapping. You could able to understand the working from that example.
If you still have any query let me know.

Thanks a lot Rajeev for your quick reply. It is a great idea, but, I didn't find the activity that called this Connect SOAP, so, I can see how mapping is done as inside Response tab of this connector, I have the same config if you check my previous attachments. Can you please give me the activity name as I cannot find it in "View References"?
Thnaks a lot for that,
Rosy

Hi Rosy,
In order to map the response, you could use Data Transform or Property-Set in the activity. And also pass the response xml to Apply-Parse-XML method followed by DT or property-Set in activity.
In Connect-SOAP rule, you could get the response in "Target Property" in response tab. You could play with the response.
Hope this helps!

Specify the destination or type of destination for the value in Pega 7 Platform. The choices that appear in the selection list are dependent on the data type specified in the Data Type field:
Clipboard— The destination is a property on the clipboard.XML ParseRule— The incoming data is a stream of XML to be parsed by a Parse XML rule.Delimited ParseRule— The incoming data is in a delimited format to be processed by a delimited parse rule.Structured Parserule— The incoming data is in a flat file that has a fixed format with fixed length field, to be processed by a structured parse rule.If more choices appear, they each identify a custom function rule in a
MapTolibrary. Review the function rule to determine what it does.Specify the key to locating the property or rule in the destination specified inMap To field:
Map To
Instructions
ClipboardEnter the name of the property name to map the data to. Click the Open icon
to review the property.
XML Parse RuleEnter the Namespace name (second key part) and theElement Name name — third key part — of the appropriate Parse XML rule. Separate the Namespace from the Element Name with a space. That is, use the syntax "NamespaceName ElementName" and not "NamespaceName.ElementName." The system uses the Applies to class of this connector rule as the first key part of the parse rule.
Note: To maintain backward compatibility for connector rules created in releases before PRPC Version 5.2, you can specify a data mapping with only a Namespace value. In that case, the system at runtime determines the Element Name key from the root element of the incoming XML document. However, this mapping works only if the Parser Type of the Parse XML rule is set to
DOMand validation is not enabled. As a best practice, specify both the Namespace Name and the Element Name of the rule.Delimited ParseRuleEnter the Namespace and Record Type names (second and third keys) of the appropriate delimited parse rule. The Applies To class of this connector rule is the first key to the parse rule.
Structured ParseRuleIf the Map To value is, enter the Activity name (second key) of the appropriate structured parse rule. The Applies To class of this connector rule is the first key to the parse rule.
MapTolibraryEither select a property to hold the results of the function or leave this field blank, as appropriate for the function.
