#Protected WebService --> We have a WebService which is Protected.

#Protected WebService -->

We have a WebService which is Protected. It means it needs a password before loading it. We have the xml of this WebService on our server.

It works well when the endpoint/WSDL URL in Dynamic WSDL URL is the same as in the xml loaded on the server.

But when we change the complete URL or endpoint through Dynamic WSDL URL , it does not load and gives us the following error?

An error occurred while reading the WSDL www.test.net/.../testWebservice to create WSInvoker for the service {urn:testWebService}testWebService and the endpoint testWebservice. Cannot detect WSDL version of the file. Ensure a valid WSDL exists at the provided URL. (APNX-1-4041-001)

Any reason why?

Just save the XML file locally on the server and point to it dynamically during the run of each process instance using Dynamic WSDL URL and a constant in that expression which points to this new local XML file.

Trying same but getting this error-

The provided URL is not a valid URL format. Please provide a correct absolute URL to the WSDL.

Any help is appreciated.

In Call Web Service node, I want to give dynamic URL value from local WSDL file so created a constant which is pointing to XML file in Appian. Now when I put this constant in Dynamic WSDL URL in Call Web Service node, I am able to get services loaded but after calling any operation gives me below error-

An error occurred while reading the WSDL [Document:12345] to create WSInvoker for the service {http://ABC2SW/MVP.asmx/}BPM and the endpoint MVPSoap. The provided URL is not a valid URL format. Please provide a correct absolute URL to the WSDL. (APNX-1-4040-001)

I understand Appian is looking for a URL and instead get constant with no protocol, tried giving file:///accdocs2/324234/324234.xml for same local XML file(got this accdocs by using getcontentobjectdetailsbyid) but services didn't load at runtime and fault says valid services are:

(just blank in last)

Thanks,

Files in Appian cannot be directly accessed by a URL. As far as I remember, this smart service only works with externally hosted WSDL files.
