Hi

I am consume a Rest Service (GET verb). This service can return a 404 if what I am searching for is not found (standard pattern in REST). This raises a System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException in BizTalk which I can catch in my Orchestration, problem is its not exactly obvious that is a 404 

This the error I get back is "There was no endpoint listening at xxx that could accept the message."

Is there a way to capture the code coming back, do I need to implement a custom behavior to inspect HTTP header status property or do I have to deal with string searches etc in the exception text looking for no endpoint listening or similar?

thanks

Hi Jody,

For catching protocol exception consider the below links. You have to create a custom binding element which in turn will create the corresponding WCF channel to handle the interaction with the service, so once the ProtocolException comes you can handle it.

Hi,

404 is a protocol exception and to capture protocol exception in web http adapter you can follow the same link

ok sounds like to implement this I would need to use the blogicalREST starter kit instead of the new adapter i

forgive my ignorance, but if I use a custombinding how do I set the query string to set up my GET operation. Will I need to also implement that somehow?

Thats why I asked if I needed the start kit. I want to stiil use ws-webhttp

Hi Jody ,

You need to configure HTTP Method and URL Mapping in web http adapter configuration .you need to add  GET method and the URL.

Something like below

Again, with a custom binding and webhttp binding you do not have this screen.
