Connect dotNet rules – Completing the Faults tab

The Faults tab is optional, but as a best practice use this tab to map any SOAP faults returned by the Web service. That way you can include an error-handling step in the connector activity and have the activity respond appropriately if the connector receives a SOAP fault instead of the response message it expects.

Important: Connect dotNet rules are no longer being actively developed, and are being considered for deprecation in upcoming releases. Using Connect dotNet rules does not follow Pega development best practices. Use Connect SOAP rules instead. For more information, see About Connect SOAP rules.

For information about these faults, including a list of SOAP fault codes, see the SOAP specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/soap/.

Note: To capture exceptions triggered by the Connect-dotNet method, configure the error handling fields on the Service tab.
