Creating a Service Connector from a WSDL File

Creating a Service Connector from a WSDL File

You can import a WSDL file to easily create a service connector with multiple operations. Use the
New Service Connector from WSDL
 wizard to import a WSDL file and create a service connector. After you specify the WSDL file, Application Integration parses the file and loads the operations.
If an error occurs during import, the wizard displays the error under
Error/Warnings
 on the
Progress
 tab. You can take corrective actions and import the WSDL file again.
  1. In
    Application Integration
    , click
    New
     on the left navigation bar.
    The
    New Asset
     dialog box appears.
    The following image shows the
    New Asset
     dialog box:
    The image shows the New Asset dialog box.
  2. Click
    Service Connectors
    Service Connector from WSDL
    , and then click
    Create
    .
    The
    New Service Connector from WSDL
     dialog box appears with the
    WSDL Source
     tab open as shown in the following image:
    The image shows the WSDL Source tab in the New Service Connector from WSDL dialog box.
  3. Specify a name, location, and description for the service connector.
  4. In the
    WSDL File
     section, use one of the following options to specify the WSDL file that you want to import:
    • To use a WSDL file from your local system, select
      File
      , and then select the WSDL file.
      You can either select a single
      .wsdl
       file or a single
      .zip
       file that contains self-contained
      .wsdl
       files and
      .xsd
       schema files.
    • To use a URL that contains a WSDL file, select
      URL
      . The
      WSDL URL
       and
      Use authentication
       fields appear. In the
      WSDL URL
       field, enter the URL that contains the WSDL file. Select the
      Use authentication
       option to specify the user name and password to access the WSDL URL.
      If the password contains an ampersand (&) character, when you test the service connector, the action fails. Additionally, if you use the same service connector in an app connection and process, the process invocation also fails.
  5. Click
    Next
    .
    The
    Services and Operations
     tab appears.
    The following image shows the
    Services and Operations
     tab:
    The image shows the Services and Operations tab.
  6. From the
    Service Name
     list, select the service that you want to use from the imported WSDL file.
    The
    Service URL
     field displays the URL to which the service connector sends requests. You cannot edit this URL.
  7. From the
    Service Port
     list, select the port that you want the service connector to use.
  8. In the
    Operations
     section, select the operations that you want the service connector to provide.
    The operations that you select will be available as actions when you create a process and use the service connector.
  9. Click
    Next
    .
    The
    Summary
     tab appears.
    The following image shows the
    Summary
     tab:
    The image shows the Summary tab.
  10. Review the service connector configuration.
  11. Click
    Start Import
    .
    Application Integration starts importing the WSDL file and displays the status on the
    Progress
     tab. The
    Progress
     tab indicates whether the import completed successfully, failed, or completed with warnings.
    The following image shows the
    Progress
     tab:
    The image shows the Progress tab.
    If you close the dialog box or cancel the import, the import process stops and the service connector is not created.
    If the import fails or completes with warnings, click the
    Error/Warnings
     tab to understand why the import did not complete successfully. You can fix the issues and import the WSDL file again.
    The following image shows a successful import:
    The image shows a successful import.
  12. Click
    Finish
     to review and save the service connector.
