webMethods and Intelligent Business Operations 10.2 | API Gateway User's Guide | Policies | System-defined Stages and Policies | Routing | Straight Through Routing
 
Straight Through Routing
When you select the Straight Through routing protocol, the API routes the requests directly to the native service endpoint you specify. If your entry protocol is HTTP or HTTPS, you can select the Straight Through routing policy.
The table lists the properties that you can specify for this policy:
Parameter
Value
Endpoint URI
Specifies the URI of the native API endpoint to route the request to in case all routing rules evaluate to False.
HTTP Method
This is applicable to REST-based APIs.
Specifies the available routing methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and CUSTOM (default).
When CUSTOM is selected, the HTTP method in the incoming request is sent to the native service. When other methods are selected, the selected method is used in the request sent to the native service.
Note: Software AG recommends to use Request Transformation > Method Transformation to achieve this as other transformations can also be done under the same policy.
Soap Optimization Method
This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs.
Specifies the optimization methods that API Gateway can use to parse SOAP requests to the native API.
Select one of the following options:
*MTOM. API Gateway uses the Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) to parse SOAP requests to the API.
*SwA. API Gateway uses the SOAP with Attachment (SwA) technique to parse SOAP requests to the API.
*None. API Gateway does not use any optimization method to parse the SOAP requests to the API. This is selected by default.
HTTP Connection Timeout (seconds)
Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a connection attempt times out.
If a value 0 is specified (or if the value is not specified), API Gateway uses the default value 30 seconds.
Read Timeout (seconds)
Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a socket read attempt times out.
If a value 0 is specified (or if the value is not specified), API Gateway uses the default value 30 seconds.
Pass WS-Security Headers
This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs.
Selecting this indicates that API Gateway should pass the WS-Security headers of the incoming requests to the native API.
SSL configuration - Specifies values to enable SSL client authentication that API Gateway uses to authenticate incoming requests for the native API.
Keystore Alias
Specifies the keystore alias of the instance of Integration Server on which API Gateway is running. This value (along with the value of Client Certificate Alias) is used for performing SSL client authentication.
Key Alias
Specifies the alias for the private key, which must be stored in the keystore specified by the keystore alias.
