Advanced properties for service gateway

Additional properties that you would use if your application works with the service gateway are discussed.

If you are using the service gateway with an application that has web services bindings, you may need to configure some additional fields.


Export

To configure an export for the service gateway follow these steps:

  1. Select the Binding tab and expand Advanced properties.

  2. In the Function selector field, select the function selector. A function selector determines the operation that will invoked in the Service Component Architecture application. There will be only one choice.

  3. In the Data format field, select the data format transformation. A data format transformation transforms the data format in a native environment to the data format expected by an SCA application.

    For example, the incoming data from a web services client might be in a text data format and the data is transformed into an XML data format for the SCA application. This data format transformation also works from the SCA application to the client. There will be only one choice.

  4. Save your configuration.


Import

Configuring your import for the service gateway is the same as configuring an export. However, there is no function selector on the import. Only the data format transformation selection is needed. There will be only one choice.
