How to integrate a pega7 application to DB using SOAP connectors
I have never done integration and I would like to know how to integrate a pega7 application to DB(external or PegaRULES DB) using soap connectors. Also can someone help me how to debug the issues when something goes wrong with SOAP connectors,

Hi Pratusha, Good Morning!
- for external or PegaRULES DB, we need to run 'New external database table class mapping' or Connector and Metadata wizards to build integration layer mapping the values to data layer.
- for SOAP connectors, we need to run Create SOAP integration wizard by having an end point URL to query the tables.
Please share your thoughts/comments, Thank you!

Hi Pratusha,
Maybe I didn't understand the use case clearly. Why are you looking to connect to a database using SOAP connectors? As Phani mentioned above, we have wizards / rules / configurations available which can directly map the Pega platform with an external database provided you have the right JDBC driver for that external database.

I haven't used log files to debug before. Can you please share me the procedure to debug using log files? This would really help me out.
Thanks.

Hi Pratusha,
You can use the landing page to download the log files. DesignerStudio > System > Operations > Logs. Click on Log Files link the log files download link will be opened up in a modal window. Download the log file as text / zip and start analyzing the logs.
Also you can use Log Level Settings to debug the specific issues (e.g: Issues related to SOAP , etc ) .
You can refer below PDN links for more information.
