Creating a Web Service Provider (Magic xpi 4.5)

To create a Web Service provider, follow these steps:

  1. Define a Web service in the Settings dialog box's Service section. For more information, click here.

  2. Place the Web Services utility into the trigger area to access the Properties pane.

  3. In the Setting section, select the required Service Name from the drop-down list. The Web service details that you defined in the Settings dialog box's Service section are then displayed in the Properties pane.

  4. Double-click or right-click on the Web Services utility and select Configuration from the context menu to open the Web Services Trigger Configuration dialog box. This dialog box displays the operations that you defined in the Web Services Operations dialog box. The Web Services Trigger Configuration dialog box has the following fields:

Click to the right of the field to open the Variables List. From the list, select a variable as a location for the fault content.

  1. When you have finished defining your Web service access details, click OK to save the settings and to exit the dialog box. Alternatively, you can click Cancel to exit the dialog box without saving your settings.
