effectively doubling the size of the incoming file. Due to technical restrictions, the
incoming XML file cannot be more than 400MB, which because of CDATA is reduced to
around 200MB. To help in this situation, you may elect to omit from the attachment, which
can be changed in HTTP Server Input User Options. Please note that incoming binary
files (sent through file upload in a form) can never be larger than 400 MB.
Processing
Depending on the options chosen in the HTTP Server Input task properties, the task may
choose to ignore some of the files. For example, using the "Do not include XML envelope"
means that only the POST attachments will be used in the process, the XML file will be
discarded. Attachments are always saved on disk in a specific location, which is accessible
either directly in the XML or directly as a data file through the "Loop each attachment as data
file" option.
Output
First, the output inside the process itself is, depending on the selected options, an XML request
files, POST Attachments files, either one or both.
If the Send Immediate Response to client option is selected, the response file is sent back
right away and the involvement of the input task ends then. However, if this option is not
checked, it means there is a second output that comes out of the HTTP Server Input task: The
last output generated by PReS Workflow is sent back to the initial input, which is returned back
to the client.
Note
Starting in version 7.2 of PReS Workflow, you can now serve static resources through
PReS, which is especially useful for images, CSS and JavaScript files. See "HTTP
Server Input 2 plugin preferences" on page660.
