Re: External Re: IWS -- MIDRANGE-L

To clarify, when I say you can use both, I mean a web service that uses
path variables can also have query variables.

So something like
/customer/ABC123/currentbalance?includeDetails=true
vs query only parms
/customer/currentbalance?custId=ABC123&includeDetails=true

The backend code would expect at least 2 parameters
custId and includeDetails

Web services can have two types of parameters, and you can use either or
both at the same time.

"path" /customer/ABC123/currentbalance
"query" /customer/currenbalance?custId=ABC123

The backend RPG code would be the same...but the way you define it to IWS
would be different.

From the example in Scott's doc the parameters are separated by /, not ?

Are you sending any parameters?

Those should be at the end of the resource
example:
/web/services/CustAdrBal?var=something

Is the service SOAP or Rest. I've found REST are easier to work with.
Download the WSDL file and import it into SOAPUI and it will set
everything up for you automagicly

Hi All

I am trying to set up a web service that will be for internal
communications only between the IBMi and the network.

Currently I use Stored Procedures that are called from the network side
and I return parameters or result sets.

We have a new application on the server where I want them to use the IWS
to request info.

I went through Scotts handout Providing RPG Web Services (Thank You
Scott!!!) and set up the server (WCIService) and deployed a new service
(CustAdrBal).
My problem is that I can't seem to get the URL right for trying it. I am
SURE it's something basic.

I am using SoupUI to test it.
URL ishttp://IP of IBMi:10010/web/services/CustAdrBal/AA/780

What the heck am I doing wrong?
