SOAP Mashup with Bing search

In this post I’ll create a Mashup with the DataListPanel. Data will be retreived from the Bing search web service. Then I’ll format the result in the list with a datatemplate, a clickable uri and use the the Open event to launch a web page and I show you how to show a clickable Uri. The Open Event is available in Lawson Smart Office 10.0.1.

Prereq: In order to use the Bing search API (for testing) you need to register and get your own application ID as identifier. In my Mashup this ID is replaced with “BingApplicationID”. Register to get your ApplicationID Continue reading →

Calling a Web Service using WS and REST Data Services

In Lawson Smart Office 9.1.3 we introduced the REST data service for mashups. In version 10.0.0 we introduced support for SOAP based web services. In 10.0.1 we introduced some new configuration options that will help you to connect to the web services out there.

There are different options available when consuming SOAP web services in Mashups.

Calling a SOAP based Web Service in a Mashup

New in Lawson Smart Office is the support for calling a web service in a Mashup. Now we did have REST support in 9.1.3 and using the template XML functionality it was possible to make a SOAP request to get data. What is new in 10.0.0 is the ability to point to a WSDL, call it and get the TYPED objects back. So you don’t work with XML, but the actual types that are described in the WSDL. How can you try this new feature?

You use one of the Data Service controls in your mashup. For example select Insert Control -> DataService -> DataListPanel. As a service type you can choose between REST, MI (M3 API) and WS. Now if you want to use M3 APS I would recommend the MIPanels but the access to M3 API is available as a Data Service as well. Continue reading →
