General tab
l WSDL address: Enter the URL address of the WSDL file, or choose a previously selected address
from the drop-down list.
Note
The WSDL Address of a PlanetPress Workflow SOAP server is the following:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/wsdl/isoapact (assuming you are on the same machine and did not
change the default HTTP port).
l Get: Click to get the WSDL file from the SOAP server and populate the Service box below.
l Service: Choose an available Web service from this drop-down list to populate the Method box below.
You may also enter the service name directly if the WSDL file cannot be found.
l Method: Choose an available method from this drop-down list. This populates the Namespace box
below. You may also enter the method name directly.
l Namespace: You may choose an available namespace to prevent ambiguity between identically
named elements or attributes. You may also enter a namespace directly.
l Resolve: Click to apply the options you chose above and to display the arguments of the chosen
method in the Arguments box below.
l As script: Click to apply the options you chose above and to display information on the chosen Web
service in JavaScript format in a script viewer. You should use this option if the Web service is too
complex to be interpreted correctly by the SOAP Client plugin.
l Name: Displays the name of the arguments associated with the selected method. Note that you may
also manually enter new arguments, change or delete existing ones, as well as change their order if
needed.
l Type: Displays the argument type.
l Value: Lets you enter fixed or variable values. To exchange variable information between the Web
service and PlanetPress Workflow, you must use job information variables %1 to %9 or variable %c
(which contains the entire job file). Note that return values (arguments which are used to return
information to the SOAP Client) are displayed in bold font.
l Namespace: Displays the namespace of the arguments associated with the selected method.
l Use returned raw SOAP packet as new data file: Check to use the complete SOAP packet (including
the passed parameters) instead of the parameters only. This option overrides any return value set to
%c in the Arguments box. You should use this option when the SOAP Client plugin is not able to fully
support the syntax of the response.
