Make the Web Service Available to Your Users

In order for your users to access the Web service, you must either distribute or publish the generated WSDL for the Web service.

Perform one of the following:

  • Distribute the WSDL as a file to your consumers.
  • Provide a URL to your consumers.
    The URL would be similar to the following example:

    http://serverIPaddress:SOA_PORT/wsdl?configName=WebServicesGroupName

    Where:
    • serverIPaddress is the IP address of the application Web Server to be used
    • SOA_Port is the port number for this Web service (displayed on last page of Web service configuration and WSDL generation)
    • WebServiceName is the name of the Web service.
    Note: Sterling B2B Integrator will not automatically publish WSDL to a UDDI. To do so, you must use a third party product.
