Dynamic Parameters

The Dynamic Parameters provide update values in a SOAP request.

Parameter Style

Specifies the method with which to update values in a SOAP request. The Web Services operators support the following methods at run time:

XPath Assignments

Specifies that XPath expressions in the Parameters List parameter update values in a SOAP request.

Macro Expansions

Specifies that macros in the Parameters List parameter update values in a SOAP request.

Parameters List

Specifies the unique data entries in the SOAP request.

A best practice is to add the parameters in the same order in which the WSDL specifies them for the SOAP call.

Each parameter contains the following values:

Macro Name/XPath Query

Defines the name of the macro or the XPath query. If the value is the name of a macro, the value substitutes the macro name. If the value is an XPath query, the value updates the node that the query returns.

Value

Specifies a runtime value for the parameter.

Type

Specifies one of the following data types for the parameter:

  • Integer Value
  • String Value
  • ValueMap
  • XML Fragment
