SOAP Services for Transportation and Global Trade Management
You can use SOAP services to import and manage data in Oracle Fusion Cloud Transportation and Global Trade Management in near real time.
Format
XML.
Key Features
- This is currently the most commonly used integration option.
- Supports large payloads.
- Data typically flows from external systems.
Best Practices
- If back-end systems are Oracle Fusion Applications, use the available Previously Built Oracle Integration Cloud (OIC) Recipes for Transportation and Global Trade Management for integrations.
- If back-end systems are external or third-party applications, you still would use OIC, or any other middle tier, for data-making and transformation.
Constraints
- The larger the payload, the longer it takes to process. Avoid adding many transactions to a single payload.
- A SOAP service call can experience a 504-gateway timeout if a request runs for more than 5 minutes. The OIC timeout is also 5 minutes.
