Consuming Webservice from ABAP Program

Rodrigo-Giner — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:13:37 GMT

Hi, I need to consume a WebService https and with SSL. But to begin I tried to use a free webservice.

1-I cant create a Client Proxy, because the ppl from IT of the client dont want to do it.... so no SE80 -> Client Proxy.

The thing is if I use the method "call method cl_http_client=>create_by_destination" Creating of course a registry in the SM59, the free webservice works I can receive the info.

But If I use "call method cl_http_client=>create_by_url" It doesnt works I dont know why is this... I guess that its a IT or BASIS problem.

2- Anyway the method "create_by_destination" dont have a SSL parameter and the create_by_url it does, I find a place to set up SSL in the SM59 but I dont find where to put the name of the SSL that was created in the tx STRUST.

So my question is I can make it works a webservice https and SSL with the method "create_by_destination" or I have to use the "create_by_url" or "create" method.

Thanks

Hi, Sandra thx for the info. Im now passing this information to check if al the ICM and SSL seeting are correct.

Question in the SM59 in the "Logon/Security" tab I see the SSL activation option and a combo box to select the certificate. I only see two options:

ANONYM and DFAULT

If the Basis team added a SSL certificate in the STRUST it should appears in that combobox like a new entry ? or that combobox allways have only those 2 options.
