Hi All,

I have a webservice that I have to communicate to with Biztalk. The webservice has no wsdl file available, so I have to do the communication using WCF-basichttp adapter.

In Biztalk I have added a schema for the request and I can send the request to the webservice.

But I get an error as result, this has to do with the fact I have to add an authorization key to the header of the request.

In C# code I am able to create the request and get the proper result.

In C# I add the Header key with next code

What is the class of the request object used in your code snippet above. With a web service you can have Http headers and Soap headers.

Is the username/password used at the Http level or is this used in WS-Security Soap header?

Thnks for your reply Greg,

The class I'm using in my code snippet is that of HttpWebRequest.

And the Header I'm setting is the http header.

I have sniffed the request that is sent by by my sample app and that of the biztalk request.

With my sample app I get the (authorization: basic *************)Line, in the header but Biztalk doesn't add anything in the http header and in biztalk I'm setting the security settings on transportCredentialsOnly and pasisng also the password and username.

I was wondering If I could set the http header in my orchestration, while using the WCF-basicHTTP adapter.

This is the HTTPheader that is sent with biztalk:

POST /soap/servlet/rpcrouter HTTP/1.1

Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8

Host: 11.142.7.39:8282

Content-Length: 423

Expect: 100-continue

Connection: Keep-Alive

and this is sent by my Sample app:

POST /soap/servlet/rpcrouter HTTP/1.1

Content-Type: text/xml

Authorization: Basic GHGFhsgdgstwt

Content-Length: 423

Connection: Keep-Alive

thanks in advance.

I also faced the same problem. I needed to pass a http header value from BizTalk 2010 solution.

After trying all possible options and from the link below it was clear that its not possible from BizTalk 2010 adapters:

So I wrote a method in a helper class and called it from my orch by passing message in xmlDoc and other required strings. And it worked !!
