Re: Retrieve documents from HTTP site

Scott:

To clarify... I'm wanting to receive AS2 messages via Http/Https - so yes, I
would like to permit two-way request response to pass back an MDN.

Thanks,

Mark

Do you need to do two-way request response work or one-way?

If one-way, you could consider creating an endpoint in your DMZ that simply
enqueues on MSMQ (for BizTalk to receive from.)

In either case, you could consider using a reverse proxy to relay messages
from your DMZ.

I have the same question... except to clarify, we are wanting to use one of
our public facing "secure" web servers as the HTTP Receive Location rather
than a local virtual directory setup on the actual BizTalk Server 2006 R2
box. As best I can tell, and from the hours of research I've done today
thus
far, it would appear that we're only allowed to specify the local virtual
directory setup in IIS on BTS.

Our thinking is that this opens the BizTalk Server box to some security
risks... and since it's inside the DMZ, that's not good. A web server
outside the DMZ looked to us to be a better choice for the receive
location... and that we should be able to some magical way point there and
tell BizTalk - "listen for inbound traffic here". (grin).

HTTP Adapter is a listening adapter, you configure it on your BizTalk

and some one post messages to that URL, which eventually gets into
BizTalk.

When you say you want to retrieve messages from HTTP, is it a web
service?
If its a web service then you can use SOAP adapter (not receive, but send
adapter) to pull data from the remote website seamlessly.

You can even pull data from HTTP using HTTP (solicit-response send
adapter),
but it will require some understanding of your problem.

Is it possible to use the HTTP adapter in Biztalk 2006 to retrieve
documents from a https site?
It seems to me that the HTTP receive adapter can only be used for
receiving document from you own http site, not from another site. Is it
possible to retrieve documents from another http site through the
internet?

Kind regards
Paw
