Interacting with a Siebel application

To interact with a Siebel application, obtain external software dependencies, run the Adapter Connection wizard, develop a message flow, then deploy the relevant resources.

To connect to a Siebel application, the Siebel adapter requires certain files and libraries. You must store these files so that they are accessible to the Adapter Connection wizard. The wizard creates various resources, such as an adapter component and message flow. After you have completed the wizard, you can develop a message flow to define the interaction with the Siebel application, then deploy the relevant resources.
  1. To obtain software dependencies, follow the instructions in Adding external software dependencies for Siebel.
  2. To configure the Siebel application to work with the adapter, create an event table and a Siebel business object, as described in Configuring the Siebel application to work with the adapter.
  3. Optional: To connect to a Siebel server in a clustered environment, see Connecting to a clustered Siebel environment.
  4. Optional: To connect to different versions of Siebel, see Connecting to different versions of Siebel.
  5. Before you run the Adapter Connection wizard, gather the following information from your Siebel administrator:
    • Siebel user name
    • Siebel password
    • Siebel host name or IP address
    • Language code
    For more information, see Siebel connection properties for the Adapter Connection wizard.
  6. To connect to Siebel by using the Adapter Connection wizard, and create a message flow, follow the instructions in Connecting to an EIS by using the Adapter Connection wizard.
  7. Develop your message flow to define the interaction with the Siebel application.
  8. Optional: To propagate security credentials to a Siebel request, see Propagating security credentials to Siebel and SAP requests.
  9. Deploy the appropriate resources, as described in Deploying a message flow that uses WebSphere Adapters.
  10. Optional: To change connection details for Siebel adapters, see Changing connection details for Siebel adapters.
