integration service, or an Integration
project, as described in the
following topics:
- Creating an application
- Creating a library
- Creating an integration service based on a wsdl or Creating an integration service from scratch
- Creating an integration project
- Creating a REST API. For information about the steps involved in completing this task, see Implementing a REST API operation by using a message map .
