Hi Sweta,

I asked the same question recently, and got an answer from Greg here.

To be a little more precise, each web service that can accept parameters has query fields in its DOM. So, when you want to pass a parameter to the webservice, you can create a rule that does this by assigning a value to the necessary query fields. Then you must use the "query using a data connection" action to update the results and there you go.

Yeah I did that and it works. But the problem is if i want to pass a parameter to the web service and that parameter is'nt stored in any of the control fields in my infopath form then how should i do pass a parameter to the web service??

Hi Sweta,

You don't necessarily need code to connect to a Web service. Just add a data connection and specify Web service. Because Web service's return XML, InfoPath can handle them natively.

Cheers!
