Endpoint Addresses
For web services, endpoints get published to a specific address.
https://<ServerName>:<Port>/< ServerInstanceName >/<NamespaceName>/<ContainerName>/<ServiceDisplayName>/<InterfaceName>
The preferred endpoints use HTTPS Port 1, which is configured to 8202 by default. To access these endpoints, configure TLS/SSL and provide a user name and password with each request.
| Field | Property | Description |

| NamespaceName | System-defined |

| InterfaceName | System-defined |
Specifies the custom service provider, which is part of the service provider's product option file. The interface name is the service contract name defined in the service provider source code. |
Metadata Endpoint
Each service also provides a metadata endpoint for accessing service metadata, and the WSDL file can be accessed using that endpoint. The metadata endpoint address is on the first interface when the interfaces are in alphabetical order by the full interface name. For system interfaces, this is typically IBrowse.
For example, to access the IWorkflowWebService WSDL file, use the following address:
https://<ServerName>:8202/SOAServer/SOAProject/Workflow/Workflow/IBrowse?wsdl
