Soap: Inserting an email with attachment via Soap Call

Wed, 04 May 2016 14:29:51 +0000

Hello,

I'm trying to save and email with an attachement in Efficy via soap.
It seems to work fine but when I try to open the attachment ('msg' file) I have the following error:

Here is my call:

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:efficy="http://www.efficy.com" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope">

Watchdoc - soap_request.xml becomes huge

Wed, 09 Sep 2015 10:53:06 +0000

Hello,

Be aware that the WatchDoc can crash any server if a file that needs to be uploaded to Efficy is bigger than the IIS "Maximum allowed content length" (default : 28.61 Mb).

Here is the problem :

1/ When a scan/Fax is made, it goes to a specific folder
2/ The watchdoc service is watching this folder, and every time a document comes in, it upload it to Efficy (using SOAP) and then move this document to an ‘uploaded’ folder.
3/ By default, IIS is configured to accept request with a maximum of 30000000 bytes (= 28.61 Megabytes).
4/ If the document is heavier than 28.61 Megabytes, the Watchdoc fail to upload it to Efficy, and log the request (which contain the document that has been base64 encoded) in soap_request.xml.
5/ This file is growing every time the WatchDoc is launched, and for one customer it has reached 130GB !

The solution is very simple : increase the “Maximum allowed content length” in IIS. To do so :

1/ Open IIS
2/ Click on the website that is running Efficy
3/ Click on the icon “Request Filtering”
4/ On the right panel, click on “Edit Feature Settings…”
5/ Increase the “Maximum allowed content length” value (for instance, setting it to 209715200 will allow files up to 200mo to be uploaded).

XML Soap message: error inserting email

Fri, 31 Jul 2015 06:50:58 +0000

Dear,

I'm having troubles inserting an email using the XML Soap messages.
This is my message:

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:efficy="http://www.efficy.com" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <efficy:logon database="databasealias" user="username" password="password"/>
    <efficy:edit entity="Mail" key="0" commit="true" closecontext="true">
        <update tableview="0">
            <SUBJECT>This is a test mail</SUBJECT>     <!--Subject of the email, cann't be changed afterwards by the user-->
            <TITLE>CLIENT NAME: This is a test mail</TITLE>         <!--This can be a copy of the subject or a customized version, the user can modify this field in Efficy-->
        </update>
        <insertattachment id="1" type="1" path="This is a test mail.msg"/>
        <updateattachment id="2" key="0" encodingkind="MIME64">
            {MIME BASE64}
        </updateattachment>
        <insertdetail id="3" detail="Case" detailkey="37" maincomp="false"/>
    </efficy:edit>
    <efficy:logoff/>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>

And this is the error I get:

      <SOAP-ENV:Fault>
     <faultcode>Exception</faultcode>
     <faultstring>Error during CommitChanges on "Mail": Could not convert variant of type          (Null) into type (Double)
     </faultstring>
     <faultid/>
     </SOAP-ENV:Fault>

Any ideas? Is my syntax correct?

Can datasynchro proces a XML file as a source file?

Mon, 01 Jun 2015 05:27:06 +0000

Is it possible to import a xml file with Datasynchro / Datasynchro remote?
When adding a connection, xml is not in the list.
Also when looking in the ODBC32 there is no driver that can be connected to an XML file.

Are there any experiance with the import of xml files using datasynchro?
