Importing a Local WSDL

As described in Creating an Orchestration Project, you can add folders for managing process resources to your project in the Project View. One of these folders is for WSDL. You can import WSDL to this folder, or anywhere in the Project Explorer, to have a locally available WSDL for use in your processes.

Once you import a WSDL and its imported schema and WSDL into Project Explorer, the Port Types are added to the Interfaces view. Once you add partner link types to the WSDL, using Designer’s wizard, the partner link types also appear in the Project Explorer and in Interfaces view.

To import a WSDL:

1. In Project Explorer, right-mouse click on a wsdl folder (or select a project).

If the WSDL imports a schema or other WSDLs, import the imported files first to avoid seeing validation warning messages.

2. Select Import.
3. In the Import dialog, select File System for the Import source.
4. Browse to your WSDL and select it.
5. Note that the WSDL Port Types are added to the Interfaces view.

You can manage WSDL files as follows:

• Viewing Key Elements of a WSDL Tree
• Deleting a WSDL from Your Project
