This topic describes how to set the PeopleSoft connectivity map properties and select the PeopleSoft HTTP Client or PeopleSoft HTTP Server as the External Application.
The PeopleSoft Adapter includes two component adapters:
PeopleSoft HTTP Client Connectivity Map Properties — The PeopleSoft HTTP Client Adapter includes both Connectivity Map and Environment properties and must be configured from both locations.
PeopleSoft HTTP Server Connectivity Map Properties — The PeopleSoft HTTP Server Adapter includes only Connectivity Map properties. There are no Environment properties.
Once a component adapter and the Environment (with the external systems) have been created, the properties can be modified for your specific system.
The PeopleSoft HTTP Client Adapter properties, accessed from the Connectivity Map, are organized into the following section, HTTP Settings.
SSL and proxy configurations (HTTPS) are not supported in this release.
The HTTP Settings section of the PeopleSoft HTTP Client Adapter Connectivity Map properties contains the top-level parameters displayed in the following table.
Table 1–3 Connectivity Map - HTTP Settings
Calling the clear() method in the Collaboration Editor clears all HTTP properties. Once the properties have been cleared, you must manually rebuild the header and payload sections of the Request message in the Transformation Designer.
The PeopleSoft HTTP Server Adapter properties, accessed from the Connectivity Map, are organized into the following section, HTTP Server External Configuration.
The PeopleSoft HTTP Server Adapter does not possess Environment properties.
The HTTP Server External Configuration section of the PeopleSoft HTTP Server Adapter Connectivity Map properties contains the top-level parameters displayed in the following table.

To create a PeopleSoft HTTP Client Adapter you must first create a PeopleSoft HTTP Client External Application in your Connectivity Map. PeopleSoft HTTP Client adapters are located between a PeopleSoft HTTP Client External Application and a Service. Services are containers for Java Collaborations, Business Processes, and so forth.
From the Connectivity Map toolbar, click the External Applications icon.
Select the PeopleSoft HTTP Client External Application from the menu. The selected PeopleSoft HTTP Client External Application icon appears on the Connectivity Map toolbar.
The PeopleSoft HTTP Server External Application is similarly created.
