Use these fields and options to set up a web service.
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Web Service Location
|
Enter the location of the Web service, using the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) location of the service. WSDL is an XML language for describing Web services. For example, http://www.webservicex.net/stockquote.asmx?WSDL.
|
| Web Methods
|
After you enter the Web Service Location, this field lists the Web methods defined by that Web service (based on the information contained in the WSDL file).
|
| Arguments
|
The list of arguments is automatically populated based on the Method selected.
-
Name: The name of the parameter to the method.
-
Value: The SQL expression, which will be used to determine the value of the argument at run time. Click
 in this field to display the SQL Expression Builder dialog box to define the values.
|
| Refresh Methods
|
Click this button to refresh the list of available methods and arguments. Clicking this button forces
DPS to read from the latest WSDL file generated for the web service:
- If the web service has been modified to include new web methods, or if existing web methods have been altered with respect to the list of arguments,
DPS refreshes the Web Methods drop-down list with the latest values.
- If the list of arguments has changed for the web method that is currently selected,
DPS refreshes the
Arguments grid.
