Refresh the web service definition

If your web service definition has changed, you can refresh it.

Before you begin

In order to manage web services, you must be a member of a personnel group that has the Manage Web Service key set permission assigned to it.

About this task

The web service must be refreshed if one of the following has occurred:

  • The web service has been moved to a different server.
  • The server is renamed.
  • The web service is hosted at a different URL.
  • The web service metadata has changed (for example, the Service Contract, Operation Contract, or the Data Contracts).

Procedure

  1. In the navigator, click Proficy System > Proficy System > Web Services.
  2. From the Web Service Definition list, select the web service you want to work with.
  3. In the Displays panel, click Web Service Editor.
  4. Click the Refresh tab.
  5. In the WSDL URL field, enter the address of the WSDL file you want to associate with the web service.
  6. Click Refresh.
  7. Restart the Workflow client and application server to apply the changes.
    Note: If the WSDL URL has changed, the new value can be saved only if the refresh is successful; otherwise, it reverts to the old value.
