Dynamic Parameters

The Dynamic Parameters specify which values to update in a SOAP request.

Parameter Style

Specifies the method with which the Parameters List updates values in a SOAP request at run time.

Macro Expansion

The Parameters list uses macros to update values in a SOAP request.

XPath Assignments

The Parameters list uses XPath expressions to update values in a SOAP request.

Parameters List

Specifies the parameters that specify unique data entries in the SOAP request. Click Add to add a parameter, Edit to edit the currently selected parameter, or Delete to delete the currently selected parameter. A best practice is to add the parameters in the order in which the WSDL specifies them for the SOAP call.

To open the Dynamic Parameters dialog, click Add or Edit, and then set the following parameter values:

Macro Name-X-Path

Defines the name of the macro or the XPath query used to extract data from the body of the SOAP response.

  • If the parameter defines a macro name, then the value replaces the macro name.
  • If the parameter defines an XPath query, then the value updates the node that the query returns.
Value

Defines an expression that returns a run-time value for the parameter.

Type

Specifies one of the following data types for the parameter:

  • Integer Value
  • String Value
  • XML Fragment
