Is I possible to view the Outgoing SOAP message when using webservices
I have to send data back to a webmethods system and have to use 2 variables in the workflow
being Webmethods I cannot download WSDL
Manually copied WSDL into Outbound SOAP message
Using SOAP generator generated the Function
Added the parameters and set the variable in the function envelope
When I send the receiving client does not receive the variables but does receive hard coded data.
I would like to view the outgoing message to validate if I am sending this but cannot see the variable or name to use with a gs.log statement
Any one any ideas
Many thanks
Jon

When you use the SOAP Message object to run the test, there is a tab that shows you your tests that you ran and you can see the outgoing soap message and response there. The variables should be in this format in the SOAP Envelope code:
${variable_name}
then you create a parameter with the same variable_name and click the Test Related Link.

Jonbebb,
A neat trick to test this out is to force the web service to use the ecc queue. Doing this, you can see exactly what is being sent out as XML. You're probably using code like this to sent the SOAP message:
var s = new SOAPMessage('TemperatureConvert', 'TempConvertSoap.FahrenheitToCelsius');
s.setParameter('temperatureF', '100');
s.post();
Instead, change the last line to this (notice the TRUE parameter):
s.post(true);
After you do this, look in the ecc queue for an outbound record and you'll see your XML in the payload field.
Good luck!
