SAP Web Dispatcher - Dynamic URL

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a scenario where a URL coming to Web Dispatcher with be dynamic ,since each time the URL will hold a different phone number and a User ID as parameters in the URL and an external application would be requring to get some data from ERP based on that parameters in the URL through the request.

We are using SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0 EHP 1 and as far as I am aware of dynamic URLs cannot be proceesed by Web Dispatcher.

Is there any other way to manipulate the URL or otherwise to solve this issue.

Appreciate an immediate response.

Thanks,

Hi,

I am not aware of this and I have used a lot the SAP Web Dispatcher....

The web dispatcher keeps URL parameters.

Is your web dispatcher connected to your portal or your ERP ? Your architecture is not clear at all...

Hi Oliver,

The Web Dispatcher is connected to ERP and the one application will be accessing the ERP system to get the details of User based on a 'User ID' and 'TelephoneNumber' which will vary each time and is part of the Request URL as Query String.

The request URL will be like

http://<host>:<port>/zincontact?sap-client=200?opid_=<User ID>?cli=<TelephoneNumber>?qid=XXXXX?dato=20091101143012?viderefort=false

Now how to configure Web Dispatcher to accept a request URL which will be dyanamic for each new request and route the request to ERP System and we are using NW 7.0 EHP 1

Hope I am clear now...

Regards,

Priya

Hi Bishnu,

Same answer : nothing special to do on the web dispatcher to manage your dynamic URL.

I have a lot of these kind of URLs and my web dispatchers just work fine with them.

In your URL

http://<host>:<port>/zincontact?sap-client=200?opid_=<User ID>?cli=<TelephoneNumber>?qid=XXXXX?dato=20091101143012?viderefort=false

Of course, I understand that <host>:<port> is in fact <web dispatcher host>:<port>

Quite late in replying ...

Yep the Host and Port would be Web dispatcher Host and port .

I got to know that Modification Handlers are available in CE 7.1 and above release to handle Dynamic URls but will you be able to tell me how it can be done for NW 7.01 version

Hi,

As it was already told several times to you, there is nothing special to do : it works fine out of the box.

Just install the web dispatcher and test it.

Hi,

It is very easy : You read the documentation, you understand it and you apply it.

In short you have to do your own part of the work.

Forums are not to ask : "step by step procedure for the same because I don't want to understand the work I am told to do"

I gladly help people with interesting questions when they do their part of the work which includes personal research.
