Tracing Level

Amount of detail that appears in the log for this transformation. You can choose terse, normal, verbose initialization, or verbose data. Default is normal.

Connection

Configure an HTTP connection in the following circumstances:

• - You do not use a URL input port.
• - The web service requires HTTP authentication or SSL certificates.
• - You want to change the default connection timeout period.

XML Schema Validation

Sorted Input

Enables the Data Integration Service to generate output without processing all of the input data. Enable sorted input when the input data is sorted by the keys in the XML input hierarchy.

URL

The base URL for the REST web service. The base URL in the HTTP connection overrides this value.

Format

The format of the web service response. Select XML or JSON depending on the web service response..
