REST API Calls with Query Parameters in BizTalk: A Step-by-Step Guide

Image
 Introduction In this blog, I will provide a comprehensive guide on how to call a REST API that requires query parameters. We'll walk through the necessary steps to set up the environment and make successful API calls. Solution High Level Steps 1. API Overview: We will be using an open API for demonstration purposes. The API endpoint we'll be working with is: https://randomuser.me/api/?results=1 2. Schema Creation: Create a schema named "SourceA" that matches the structure of the messages you'll be dropping in the receive location. To create a JSON response schema, follow these steps: capture the JSON response by running a test in Postman, and then utilize a JSON schema generator to create the desired JSON schema. 3. Field Promotion: In the SourceA schema, promote the field called "results." This field will serve as the variable for the query parameter. 4. Receive JSON Pipeline: Develop a receive JSON pipeline that can receive JSON messages and convert t...

Updating BizTalk SSO DB using BTDF and a simple BTDF deployment

Image
Introduction In some cases, it becomes important to securely store key-value pairs, such as configuration data (e.g., usernames and passwords), rather than hardcoding them within a BizTalk orchestration. One effective way to achieve this is by storing these key-value pairs securely in the BizTalk SSO (Enterprise Single Sign-On) database and subsequently reading these values within our orchestration through a simple line of code within a BizTalk expression shape. In this blog post, we will go through the steps to add key-value pairs to the SSO database using the BizTalk Deployment Framework (BTDF). We will also explore how to read these values within a BizTalk orchestration and perform a simple BizTalk deployment using BTDF. Steps Creating a BizTalk Solution, Schema Project and Map project: Let's first create a BizTalk Solution called "SSOPOC" and a project called "SSOPOC.Schema". For this, you need to go to Visual Studio and click on File --> New Project --...
