Web service

Service Description URL

Enter the URL for the web service description (WSDL) file. Once you have entered a valid URL, click the Load button to automatically populate the rest of the page with data from the Web Service.

In the example above, the WSDL is for a "Temperature Conversion" service.

Method

Enter the name of the method to call. You can call any method which takes only Primitive Types as parameters (complex type parameters are not supported.)

This dropdown is automatically populated when you click the Load button.

Parameters

Enter the values for method parameters. If you have clicked the Load button, this list is automatically populated when you choose a method name from the Method dropdown.

You can choose to show the list as Fixed Parameter Names (as shown above) or Editable Parameter Names. The latter displays parameters as a text field of Andlt;KeyAndgt;=Andlt;ValueAndgt; <Key>=<Value> pairs. This allows you to enter parameters when the WSDL is not available at design time.

The Reload Parameters button will clear the parameter values and reset the list. Image Removed
