Input SOAP
The Input SOAP task is used to answer calls from a remote SOAP client and to return a
response to that request. It is similar in functionality to the "HTTP Server Input" on page257
task.
Note
SOAP communication is non-trivial and requires a certain understanding of XML and the
SOAP protocol. Using the SOAP tasks pre-supposes this knowledge and this
documentation does not attempt to provide it.
The Input SOAP Task only responds to a single SOAP action by the client: SubmitJob. Within
this request however, a secondary action (SubmitSOAPActionName) can be specified - this is
what the SOAP Action corresponds to in this task properties.
Input
This task does not poll any location by itself. It sits there waiting for requests coming in through
WSDL (SOAP communication) and, when it receives a request, runs the process and returns
the last output generated by the process to the client.
Processing
No processing is done. The request that is received by this task is XML and it is maintained as
such.
Output
As with the HTTP Server Input, this task has a dual-output purpose. First, when the initial input
task is run, the XML request is output onto the process. Then, when the process is finished, the
last job file generated by the process is returned to the requesting client.
