Configuring the HTTP Adapter for SSL

When the HTTP adapter connects to the back-end server it can utilize the HTTP protocol over

either plain TCP or SSL. To use SSL requires some setup.

1. Change the protocol type of the Adapter's XML configuration to "https".

2. Change the port number to be that of the back-end server's port for SSL.

Example HTTP Adapter

On the Internet there is an example public HTTP service that will return US Government

representative details. This web site can be found at:

http://whoismyrepresentative.com/api

In this example, we will build an adapter which invokes this REST service taking a US state as

input and returning the senators for that state.

Examining the documentation for the REST request, we see that a call to:

http://whoismyrepresentative.com/getall_sens_bystate.php?state=TX

will return the senators from Texas. Testing this request using a REST testing tool shows that it

returns an XML document.

We are now at the point where we can design our adapter. For HTTP adapters, we should complete

the following table before we continue:

Property Value

Hostname or TCP/IP address

Port Number

HTTP command verb

URL Path

Parameters

Security considerations

Returned data format

In our example, the answers would be:

Property Value

Hostname or TCP/IP address

http://whoismyrepresentative.com

Port Number

HTTP command verb

GET

URL Path

/getall_sens_bystate.php

Parameters

state=<US State>
