In the WS profile you specify a WSDL file that mainly includes the following parts of a Web Service definition:

  • XML Schema: Defines information about the service either directly or via an XSD-file

  • WSDL: Communication relevant information

  • Binding elements: Image Added supports only SOAP bindings

Saving a WS profile that is assigned with a WSDL file, maps data types that are specified in the WSDL Schema section as UDR types for the workflowthe Image Added workflow. For further information, see 9.8384.3 Web Service UDR Type Structure.

The Web Service Agents

There are two Web Service agents that you can include in real-time workflows in the workflow configuration dialog:

  • The Web Service collection agent

  • The Web Service processing agent

Web Service Collection Agent

The collecting agent works in the same way as a Service Provider, or server, in the sense that it receives requests from a client, or clients, and transfers the requests to a workflow.

...

The Web Service Provider - asynchronous operation

Web Service Processing Agent

The processing agent works in the same way as a Service Requester, or a client, that sends a request to a server, where a certain service is available.
