FortiSOAR™ provides you with a number of pre-installed connectors or built-ins, such as the SOAP or Database connectors that you can use within FortiSOAR™ playbooks, as a connector step, and perform automated operations. These connectors are bundled and named based on the type of operations the connectors can perform. For example, the Database connector would contain actions that you can perform with respect to the database like querying the database. It is easy to extend and enhance these connectors.
Apart from the FortiSOAR™ Built-in connectors, Fortinet also provides a number of connectors for popular integrations like SIEMs, such as FortiSIEM, Splunk, etc., and Ticketing systems such as Jira. You can see a list of published connectors on the FortiSOAR Connectors Documentation site.
The process of installing, configuring, and using connectors is defined in the Introduction to connectors chapter in the "Connectors Guide", which is part of the FortiSOAR™ documentation or see the Installing a connector and Configuring a connector articles.
FortiSOAR™ Built-in connectors are upgraded by default with a FortiSOAR™ upgrade. Use the Content Hub to upgrade your connectors to the latest version. For more information on the connector store, see the Introduction to connectors chapter and see the FortiSOAR Built-in connectors article.
Important: Before you upgrade your FortiSOAR™ version, it is highly recommended that you take a backup of your FortiSOAR™ Built-in connector's (SSH, IMAP, Database, etc.) configuration since the configuration of your FortiSOAR™ Built-in connectors might be reset if there are changes to the configuration parameters across versions.
Use this connector to make SOAP calls by sending SOAP functions and receiving data.
The SOAP connector (version 2.3.0) contains a full-fledged SOAP client that reads WSDL from the configuration and populates the list of actions and all the required/optional inputs from WSDL. Therefore, now you can use the newly added SOAP Call action to integrate SOAP web services with FortiSOAR™. To use the SOAP client, from the Action drop-down list select SOAP Call, then select the SOAP Service that you want to use, based on which you select the Port Type and the Function Name, after which all the required or optional parameters get displayed. The headers list gets populated and even the output schema of this step gets populated in the next steps of the playbook according to the function you have selected. A new field "Additional SOAP Headers" is added to the SOAP Call action, using which you can specify any extra headers, which are required for the requests.
Important: This new feature, i.e., the SOAP Call action, is supported for FortiSOAR™ version 6.4.1 and later.
The SOAP connector also has the SOAP Call (Generic) action that is present for backward compatibility, where you could specify a SOAP function and define its parameters. A new field "Additional SOAP Headers" is added to the SOAP Call (Generic) action, using which you can specify any extra headers, which are required for the requests.
Adds support for the 'File' type input in the 'SOAP Call' action. In this case, the WSDL that accepts the input type as 'file' is displayed and the input for the same is accepted as the IRI value of the file or attachment.
This version contains a full-fledged SOAP client that reads WSDL from the configuration and populates the list of actions and all the required/optional inputs from WSDL. Therefore, now you can use the newly added SOAP Call action to integrate SOAP web services with FortiSOAR™. For more information, see the SOAP section.
