SOAP nodes

The SOAP nodes act as points in the flow where web service processing is configured and applied. Properties on the SOAP nodes control the processing carried out and can be configured by supplying a WSDL definition, or by manually configuring properties, or both.

SOAP nodes

The W3C SOAP specification refers to "SOAP nodes" meaning a unit of application logic (see Web Services Glossary). Typically, references to "SOAP nodes" in the IBM® Integration Bus Information Center are referring to IBM Integration Bus SOAP nodes.

If you are using SOAP nodes and HTTP nodes in message flows on a single integration node, you can choose to handle HTTP messages by using either the integration node listener or embedded integration server listeners. If a listener in your configuration receives messages that both SOAPInput and HTTPInput nodes might get, you must carefully check the URL specifications in these nodes. If both URL specifications match an incoming message, the wrong type of node might get the message, and processing might fail or produce unexpected results. This situation occurs if you specify identical values for the Path suffix for URL properties of the HTTPInput node and the SOAPInput node. It can also occur if you use wildcards in either or both specifications, and an incoming message matches both properties.
