How to Configure a WCF-Custom Send Port

  • Artigo

You can configure a WCF-Custom send port either programmatically or by using the BizTalk Administration console.

Configuration properties

The BizTalk Explorer Object Model exposes an adapter-specific interface for send ports named ITransportInfo that has the TransportTypeData read/write property. This property accepts a WCF-Custom send port configuration property bag in the form of a name-value pair of XML strings.

The TransportTypeData property of the ITransportInfo interface is not required. If it is not set, the adapter uses the default values for the WCF-Custom send port configuration, as indicated in the following table.

The following list describes the configuration properties you can set in the BizTalk Explorer Object Model for WCF-Custom send ports:

  • Property name: Identity

    • Type: XML Blob

      Example:

      <identity>
<userPrincipalName value="username@contoso.com" />
</identity>

    • Description: Specify the identity of the service that this send port expects. These settings enable this send port to authenticate the service. In the handshake process between the client and service, the WCF infrastructure will ensure that the identity of the expected service matches the values of this element. The values that can be specified for the Identity property differ according to the security configuration.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: StaticAction

    • Type: String

    • Description: Specify the SOAPAction header field for outgoing messages. This property can also be set through the message context property WCF.Action in a pipeline or orchestration. You can specify this value in two different ways: the single action format and the action mapping format. If you set this property in the single action format, such as http://contoso.com/Svc/Op1, then the SOAPAction header for outgoing messages is always set to the value specified in this property.

      If you set this property in the action mapping format, the outgoing SOAPAction header is determined by the BTS.Operation context property. For example, if this property is set to the following XML format and the BTS.Operation property is set to Op1, then the WCF send adapter uses http://contoso.com/Svc/Op1 for the outgoing SOAPAction header.

      <BtsActionMapping>
<Operation Name="Op1" Action="http://contoso.com/Svc/Op1" />
<Operation Name="Op2" Action="http://contoso.com/Svc/Op2" />
</BtsActionMapping>

      If outgoing messages come from an orchestration port, orchestration instances dynamically set the BTS.Operation property with the operation name of the port. If outgoing messages are routed with content-based routing, you can set the BTS.Operation property in pipeline components.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: BindingType

  • Property name: BindingConfiguration

    • Type: XML Blob

      Example:

      <binding name="netNamedPipeBinding">
<readerQuotas maxDepth="32" maxStringContentLength="8192" maxArrayLength="16384" maxBytesPerRead="4096" maxNameTableCharCount="16384" />
<security mode="None" />
</binding>

    • Description: Specify an XML string with the <binding> element to configure different types of predefined bindings provided by Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). For more information about the system-provided binding and custom binding, see the appropriate topics listed in See Also.

      BizTalk Server does not support all the types of the binding extension elements that you can configure with the BindingConfiguration property.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: EndpointBehaviorConfiguration

    • Type: XML Blob

      Example:

      <behavior name="sampleBehavior">
<callbackTimeouts />
</behavior>

    • Description: Specify an XML string with the <behavior> element of the <endpointBehaviors> element to configure the behavior settings of a WCF endpoint. For more information about the <endpointBehaviors> element, see the appropriate topic in See Also.

      BizTalk Server does not support all the types of the behavior extension elements that you can configure with the EndpointBehaviorConfiguration property.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: AffiliateApplicationName

    • Type: String

    • Description: Specify the affiliate application to use for Enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO).

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: UseSSO

    • Type: Boolean

    • Description: Specify whether to use Single Sign-On to retrieve client credentials for authentication with the destination server.

      Default value: False

  • Property name: UserName

    • Type: String

    • Description: Specify the user name to use for authentication with the destination server when the UseSSO property is set to False. You do not have to use the domain\user format for this property.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: Password

    • Type: String

    • Description: Specify the password to use for authentication with the destination server when the UseSSO property is set to False.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: OutboundBodyLocation

    • Type: Enum

      • UseBodyElement: Use the BizTalk message body part to create the content of the SOAP Body element for an outgoing message.
      • UseTemplate: Use the template supplied in the OutboundXMLTemplate property to create the content of the SOAP Body element for an outgoing message.

      For more information about how to use the OutboundBodyLocation property, see Specifying the Message Body for the WCF Adapters.

    • Description: Specify the data selection for the SOAP Body element of outgoing WCF messages.

      Default value: UseBodyElement

  • Property name: OutboundXMLTemplate

    • Type: String

      For more information about how to use the OutboundXMLTemplate property, see Specifying the Message Body for the WCF Adapters.

    • Description: Specify the XML-formatted template for the content of the SOAP Body element of an outgoing message. This property is required if the OutboundBodyLocation property is set to UseTemplate.

      The default is an empty string.

  • Property name: InboundBodyLocation

    • Type: Enum

      • UseBodyElement: Use the content of the SOAP Body element of an incoming message to create the BizTalk message body part. If the Body element has more than one child element, only the first element becomes the BizTalk message body part. This property is valid only for solicit-response ports.
      • UseEnvelope: Create the BizTalk message body part from the entire SOAP Envelope of an incoming message.
      • UseBodyPath: Use the body path expression in the InboundBodyPathExpression property to create the BizTalk message body part. The body path expression is evaluated against the immediate child element of the SOAP Body element of an incoming message. This property is valid only for solicit-response ports.

      For more information about how to use the InboundBodyLocation property, see Specifying the Message Body for the WCF Adapters.

    • Description: Specify the data selection for the SOAP Body element of incoming WCF messages.

      Default value: UseBodyElement

    • Type: String

      For more information about how to use the InboundBodyPathExpression property, see WCF Adapters Property Schema and Properties.

    • Description: Specify the body path expression to identify a specific part of an incoming message used to create the BizTalk message body part. This body path expression is evaluated against the immediate child element of the SOAP Body node of an incoming message. If this body path expression returns more than one node, only the first node is chosen for the BizTalk message body part. This property is required if the InboundBodyLocation property is set to UseBodyPath. This property is valid only for solicit-response ports.

      The default is an empty string.

    • Description: Specify the type of encoding that the WCF-Custom send adapter uses to decode for the node identified by the body path specified in InboundBodyPathExpression. This property is required if the InboundBodyLocation property is set to UseBodyPath. This property is valid only for solicit-response ports.

      Default value: XML

  • Property name: PropagateFaultMessage

    • Type: Boolean

      • True: Route the message that fails outbound processing to a subscribing application (such as another receive port or orchestration schedule).
      • False: Suspend failed messages and generate a negative acknowledgment (NACK).

    • Description: Specify whether to route or suspend messages failed in outbound processing.

      This property is valid only for solicit-response ports.

      Default value: True

  • Property name: ReferencedBindings

    • Type: XML Blob

    <message issuedKeyType="AsymmetricKey">
     <issuer address="http://www.contoso.com/samplests" binding="wsFederationHttpBinding" bindingConfiguration="contosoSTSBinding"/>
    </message>
   </security>
  </binding>
</wsFederationHttpBinding>
</BindingConfiguration>
<ReferencedBindings vt="8">
<bindings>
  <wsFederationHttpBinding>
   <binding name="contosoSTSBinding">
    <security mode="Message">
     <message negotiateServiceCredential="false">
      <issuer address="http://northwind.com/samplests" bindingConfiguration="northwindBinding" binding="wsHttpBinding">
      </issuer>
     </message>
    </security>
   </binding>
  </wsFederationHttpBinding>
  <wsHttpBinding>
   <binding name="northwindBinding">
    <security mode="Message">
     <message clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
    </security>
   </binding>
  </wsHttpBinding>
</bindings>
</ReferencedBindings>

      The ReferencedBinding property must not contain the binding configuration used in the BindingConfiguration property.

    • Description: Specify the binding configurations referenced by the bindingConfiguration attribute of the <issuer> element for the wsFederationHttpBinding and customBinding, which indicates the Security Token Service (STS) that issues security tokens. For more information about the <issuer> element, see WCF configuration schema: <issuer>.

      The binding information including the <issuer> element for the wsFederationHttpBinding and customBinding can be configured through the BindingConfiguration property of the WCF-Custom and the WCF-CustomIsolated adapters. All of the referenced binding configurations for this property must be placed in the form of the <bindings> element.

      You cannot configure this property on the Binding tab in the transport properties dialog box. You can import and export this property through the Import/Export tab in the transport properties dialog box of the WCF-Custom and WCF-CustomIsolated adapters.

      The bindingConfiguration attribute of the <issuer> element must refer a valid binding name in this property.

      The <issuer> element in the referenced binding configurations can also refer to a different binding configuration in this property if this reference chain does not make a circular dependency.

      The default is an empty string.

Configure a WCF-Custom Send Port with the BizTalk Administration Console

You can set WCF-Custom send port adapter variables in the BizTalk Administration console. If properties are not set for the send port, the default values for the WCF-Custom send port configuration are used, as indicated in the previous table.

Configure variables for a WCF-Custom send port

  1. If you plan to use the WCF extensibility points such as the custom binding elements, custom behavior element, and custom channel components when configuring the WCF-Custom adapter, you must add the assemblies that implement the extensibility points and all of the dependent assemblies to the global assembly cache on both the BizTalk processing computer (runtime computer) and the administration computer. In addition, you must register the extension components to the machine.config file. For more information about how to use the WCF extensibility points with the WCF Custom adapter, see How to Enable the WCF Extensibility Points with the WCF Adapters.

  2. In the BizTalk Administration console, create a new send port or double-click an existing send port to modify it. For more information, see How to Create a Send Port. Configure all of the send port options and specify WCF-Custom for the Type option in the Transport section of the General tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  3. On the General tab, in the Transport section, click the Configure button next to Type.

  4. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the General tab, configure the endpoint address, the service identity, and the SOAPAction header for the WCF-Custom send port. For more information about the General tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, General tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  5. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the Binding tab, configure different types of predefined or custom bindings for WCF. For more information about the Binding tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, Binding tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  6. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the Behavior tab, configure the endpoint behavior for this send port. An endpoint behavior is a set of the behavior extension elements that modify or extend service or client functionality. For more information about the Behavior tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, Behavior tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  7. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the Credentials tab, specify the credentials to be used when sending messages. For more information about the Credentials tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, Credentials tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  8. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the Messages tab, specify the data selection for the SOAP Body element. For more information about the Messages tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, Messages tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.

  9. In the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, on the Import/Export tab, import and export the Address (URI) and Endpoint Identity properties on the General tab, binding information on the Binding tab, and endpoint behavior on the Behavior tab for this send port. For more information about the Import/Export tab in the WCF-Custom Transport Properties dialog box, see the WCF-Custom Transport Properties Dialog Box, Send, Import-Export tab in the UI guidance and developers API namespace reference.
