Introduction

Consume web service to Orchestration, that accepts input from BizTalk (XML file):

• Here I make a web service accept a number and return their sum
• Consume that web service to Orchestration (Add web reference)
• Pass value from XML Receive port to WS
• Invoke Web service by using web port and get output
• Sending output by XML send port

Background

I make an assumption that you know how to:

• Make a web service
• Add web references on BTS
• Basic Schema generation
• Property promotion on schema
• Schema Mapping

Using the Code

Web Service Output to Out XML Mapping

Orchestration

Add configuration port and on port, type select web service port type. It will automatically create an appropriate request and response port.

Expression Shape

Here you need to assign input message value to Web service request message.

Points of Interest

Initially promoted field was not coming on Expression shape. To solve this, I give full name like projectname.schemaname.propertyschema.promoted field.
