Web Services Client Resource Configure Details (Magic xpi 4.6)
If the Web services module has already been generated, the Configure program loads the Web services configuration information from the module. The Configure program's dialog box is opened by clicking Configure in the Settings dialog box. The Configure dialog box contains two tabs, General and Security.
The General tab lets you view and configure the following parameters:
