Before you begin
This topic covers programmatic use of the UDDI APIs. The first subtopics describe some standard aspects of the UDDI APIs:Although the recommended programmatic access to the UDDI APIs is through the UDDI Version 3 Client for Java, it is also valid to use the UDDI APIs directly using SOAP. This can be done by constructing a properly-formed UDDI message within the body of a SOAP request, and sending it using HTTP POST to the appropriate SOAP endpoint for the UDDI service (see UDDI Registry SOAP Service End Points. The response will be returned within the body of the HTTP reply.
Support is also provided for the use of HTTP GET to return XML representations of UDDI entities: see HTTP GET Services for UDDI Registry data structures for details.
