How to Configure a Send Endpoint for a BizTalk Adapter

  • Artykuł

For the latest version of Commerce Server 2007 Help, see the Microsoft Web site.

Before completing the steps described in this topic you should be familiar with how the BizTalk Server concepts of send endpoints and send ports are used in relation to send adapters in general, and to Commerce Server send adapters in particular. For more information, see Send Endpoints and Send Ports.

Most of the configuration properties for send endpoints are not specific to the Commerce Server send adapters. Indeed, the configuration properties that are specific to the Commerce Server send adapters are all found in the following four variations of the Transport Properties dialog box (shown with links to their corresponding How To topics):

This topic provides the steps required to create a send adapter endpoint for a Commerce Server send adapter, which are the same steps regardless of the type of Commerce Server send adapter. It does not discuss the steps required to configure the properties that are specific to each type of Commerce Server send adapter, nor does it discuss the steps required to configure the properties of a send adapter endpoint that are common to all send adapters regardless of whether they are Commerce Server send adapters. For the former type of information, see the links above, and for the latter type of information, see the BizTalk Server documentation.

To create a new send adapter endpoint, you only need to create a new send port (there is no send location to create and configure, as with receive ports and receive locations).

To create a new send port

  1. In the BizTalk Server Administration Console, in the console tree, navigate to the BizTalk group and BizTalk application in which you want to create the new send port.

    Note

    You may also perform these steps in Visual Studio 2005 or Visual Studio 2008.

  2. Right-click Send Ports, click New, and then click Static Solicit-Response Send Port. The Send Port Properties dialog box opens.

  3. On the General tab, type an appropriate name and description for this send port in the Name and Description boxes, respectively.

    Note

    Choose a name that will help you identify the Commerce Server adapter with which you intend to use this send port. For example, CatalogSendPort might be a good name to use for a send port intended for use with the Catalog send adapter.

  4. On the General tab, in the Transport section, in the Type drop-down list, choose the Commerce Server adapter for which you are creating this send endpoint.

  5. Click Configure to configure the transport properties that are specific to the type of Commerce Server send adapter that you chose in the previous step. The relevant Commerce Server System Transport Properties dialog box opens.

    At this point, you must configure at least the required properties of this Commerce Server send adapter endpoint. You may return to this dialog box at a later time to configure the optional properties. For more information about the configuration properties in this dialog box, see one of the following How To topics:

    When you have finished configuring at least the required properties of this Commerce Server send adapter endpoint, click OK to return to the Send Port Properties dialog box.

  6. On the General tab and the other tabs, configure other BizTalk Server send port properties that are not specific to send ports being used with the Commerce Server adapters. For more information about these other properties, see the BizTalk Server documentation.

  7. Click OK to save the send port property settings and close the Send Port Properties dialog box.
