Study Notes
Web Services
- Enable exchange of data between different applications and platforms
- Are web-based enterprise applications
- Use open, XML-based standards and transport protocols
- Exchange data with calling clients
Communication Requirements
- To communicate with another system via Web Services, the following info is required:
- URI (Uniform Resource Identifier)
- Service name
- Expected XML structure
- Possible value types
IDIT WSDL Generation
- IDIT system generates WSDL files on demand for each service defined in the IDIT database.
- IDIT's WSDL types utilize IDIT schemas and types schema.
Setup Requirements for WSDL Generation
- The setup process for WSDL generation requires configuration in the following tables using the same service name/method name:
- T_INCOMING_INTERFACE_PROP
- T_OUTGOING_INTERFACE_PROP
- T_SERVICE_AUDIT_CFG
IDIT WSDL Generation Capabilities
- IDIT can generate a separate WSDL file per service (operation).
- IDIT can generate a single WSDL file for all exposed services (operations).
Supported Message Format
- IDIT only supports the Document/Literal SOAP message format for web services.
