Managing WSDL specifications

Store WSDL service contracts in the Registry when SOAP operations must be reused across applications or workflows. A registered specification retains references to the activities that use it.

Add a WSDL specification​

  1. Open Registry, then select WSDL.
  2. Select Add WSDL.
  3. Upload the WSDL file or provide the source requested by Studio.
  4. Review the parsed services, ports, and operations.
  5. Enter the specification details and save it.

Create assets from WSDL​

From a registered specification, create an application or add workflows to an existing application. Select only the operations the integration needs. Studio creates SOAP-oriented workflow assets and preserves the Registry reference.

To configure an existing compatible activity, open its actions menu, select Configure with WSDL, and choose the service, port, and operation.

Update a specification​

  1. Select the specification in the Registry, then select Update.
  2. Provide the revised WSDL and review validation results.
  3. Review each reported workflow or activity impact before accepting the update.
  4. Repair affected operation, input, output, or endpoint mappings.
  5. Test and republish affected workflows.
warning

Changing or removing an operation can invalidate linked activities. Coordinate Registry updates with service owners and deployment reviewers.

See schema references for reference behavior and working with OpenAPI specs for REST contracts.
