You can configure a Web Service endpoint to call another
Web Service orchestration stored in the Integration Appliance, in
the same project.
About this task
You can configure an Orchestration to Orchestration connection
by specifying the transport protocol to the endpoint location as local:// instead
of the conventional http://.
You apply
this option to either call (invoke) or provide endpoint type.
Procedure
- Open a new or existing Web Service endpoint.
- In the Type section, select either the Invoke option
or Provide option. Invoke is
selected by default.
- If you select the Invoke option, complete
the following steps:
- From the Location drop-down list, select Local
- From the Orchestration drop-down list,
select the orchestration you want to call.
- From the WS Provide Activity drop-down
list, select an activity.
Note: This activity is displayed only if
the selected orchestration has a Web Services Provide Service starter
activity and Local as the relevant endpoint.
If you select an orchestration that does not have a Web Services Provide
Service starter activity, then the WS Provide Activity menu is empty.
- If you select the Provide option, complete
the following steps:
- From the Transport drop-down list, select
Local.
- In the Path field, enter the path which
is used to call the Provide activity.
