I’m using Biztalk 2004 to convert an EDI file to a XML file. The problem is that i would like to call biztalk with a web service(i’m using VS.NET 2003), sending an EDI File and receiving a syncrhonous response with the xml file, but i don’t know if it is possible.
I know I can make a simple request/response to a biztalk orchestration. The problem is the edi adapter which is made to work with files in a directory and process them in a queue.
Biztalk orchestrations can definitely be published as web services.
So even though the pipeilnes could convert the EDI without an orchestration, I think you would have to create a simple orch with just a receive and a send (maybe a map).
