SOAP Message Validation How it really validates:

[abiram8]

Using “SOAP Message Validation” with no Target Proxy for mocking a request. Using Apigee Cloud

My requirement is

1. POST method should validate the input message with respect to WSDL.

2. Once validation done based on SOAP message if SOAP method is “getDetails” returns response XML1

3. If SOAP Method is anotherDetails return response XML 2

My SOAP Message Validation policy looks like below.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<MessageValidation async="false" continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="SOAP-Message-Validation-1">

<DisplayName>SOAP Message Validation-1</DisplayName>

<Properties/>

<Element namespace="https://my.mynamespace.com/">getDetails</Element>

<SOAPMessage/>

<Source>request</Source>

<ResourceURL>wsdl://ReferMyLocal-1.wsdl</ResourceURL>

</MessageValidation>

Note:

I have added SOAP Message validation with following steps for policy

Selected followed steps for creating SOAP Message Validation Policy with indicated steps

Filteype : WSDL

Script File : Import new Script

File: Browsed the WSDL file (named ReferMyLocal-1.wsdl)

This automatically created “ReferMyLocal-1.wsdl” under wsdl folder of edge

I saved my proxy goes without error and deployed to test environment

I am Sending the following request (POST request to SOAP using API Console

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<soap12:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soap12="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">

<soapenv:Header>

<AuthSOAPHeader xmlns="https://my.mynamespace.com/">

</AuthSOAPHeader>

</soapenv:Header>

<soapenv:Body>

< getDetails xmlns="https://my.mynamespace.com/">

  <gref>string</gref>

</getDetails>

</soapenv:Body>

</soapenv:Envelope>

Would like to know how this SOAP validation really works.

Even If I change getDetails to getDe then also get 200 response

Even if I change the name space truncate the https://my.mynamespace.com/">

Still it gives me 200 response.Let me know if I am missing anything where really SOAP validation will fail indicateing expected error???
