Publishing WSDL files using the administrative console

This article explains how to publish a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file using the WebSphere Application Server administrative console.

Before you begin

Before completing this task, you need to install or deploy the Web service. After deployment, configure the URL endpoint tasks for your transport:

About this task

By publishing a WSDL file, you are providing clients with a description of the Web service, including the URL identifying the location of the service.

The WSDL files in each Web services-enabled module are published to the file system location you specify. You can provide these WSDL files in the development and configuration process of the Web service clients so they can invoke your Web services.

To publish an application's WSDL file with the administrative console:

Procedure

  1. Open the administrative console.
  2. Click Applications > Enterprise Applications > application_instance. Under Additional Properties, click Publish WSDL files which brings you to the Publish WSDL zip files panel.
  3. Click the WSDL zip file to download. The zip file contains the application's published WSDL files. The zip file ExtendedWDLFiles.zip contains EJB binding information. It can also contain JMS or HTTP binding information. The zip file WSDLFiles.zip only contains JMS or HTTP binding information.

What to do next

Apply security to your Web service.
