Specifying credentials for a web service
By default, the Content Cortex Component Manager
service user credentials are used for authentication with a web service on IBM® Business Automation
Workflow. However, you can use the Component Manager in
Process Task Manager to configure different credentials for the web service.
About this task
When you associate a task with a business process, IBM Business Automation Workflow adds a partner link reference to the XPDL file for the solution. In the runtime environment, the partner link reference identifies the business process that is to be started when the task is started.
Important: SSL
support in the Content Cortex environment
is a systemwide configuration that governs all web service traffic
into Content Platform Engine. Therefore,
you must consider the ramifications on your overall system before
you enable SSL.
Procedure
To specify different credentials for the web service:
- In Process Task Manager, expand the Component Managers node and click the connection point for the web service.
- Click the Web Services tab and then click the Advanced tab in the Web Services page.
- Click Add.
- Select the partner link reference for your web service.
- Enter the user name and password that are to be used to access the web service.
