Creating web service solutions with the Web Service Integration Wizard

Prerequisite
  • Before you can bind a web service with the WCF service type, the SvcUtil,exe file must exist in the One Identity Manager installation directory.

    Refer to Microsoft for information about where you can purchase this file.

  • Before you can bind a web service with the SOAP service type, the WSDL.exe file must be on the server that executed provisioning.

    Refer to Microsoft for information about where you can purchase this file.

To integrate a new web service

  1. In the Designer, select the Base Data | General | Web services category.

  2. Select the Integrate new web service task.

    This start the Web Service Integration Wizard.

  3. Click Next on the start page.

  4. Enter the access data and general web service properties on the Integrate new web service page.

    Table 180: General properties of a web service
    Property Description

    Web service name

    Display name of the web service in One Identity Manager.

    Description

    Text field for additional explanation.

    .NET namespace for the proxy code

    Unique identifier for the .NET namespace.

    Web service URL

    URL at which the web service is run.

    WSDL file URL

    URL at which the WSDL.exe for the web service can be reached.

    If the WSDL.exe is not publicly available, it can also be saved locally.

    NOTE: If the web service operator changes the WSDL file, run the Web Service Integration Wizard again in order to implement the changes.

    Service type

    Type of web service.

    Locked

    Indicates whether the web service can be used.

    User name

    User name for logging in to the web service.

    User domain

    User domain.

    User password and password confirmation

    Password for logging in to the web service.

    Proxy code generator

    Path and file name for the proxy code generator.
    • If the WCF service type is selected, path to SvcUtil.exe file.
    • If the SOAP service type is selected, path to WSDL.exe file.
    Table 181: Advanced properties of a web service
    Property Description

    Proxy server URL

    URL of the proxy server, if communication is routed through a proxy server.

    Proxy server user name

    User name for logging onto the proxy server.

    Proxy server domain

    Proxy server domain.

    Proxy server password and password confirmation

    Password and password confirmation for logging onto the proxy server.

    Timeout for WSDL.exe

    Timeout for accessing the WSDL file.

    User-defined command line

    Command line for calling the proxy code generator. The command line can extended by another parameter if required.

    Default command:

    /nologo /language:VB "/namespace:%Namespace%" "/out:{0}" %WsdlUrl%

    Example:

    /nologo /language:VB "/namespace:EnricoHolidayWebservice" "/out:{0}" http://kayaposoft.com/enrico/ws/v1.0/index.php?wsdl

    1. Click Check.

      This tests access to the web service.

    2. If the test is sucessful, click Next.

  5. The generated proxy code is shown on the page, Create proxy code.

    The proxy code contains all web service methods, which are defined in the WSDL file and makes them available to the One Identity Manager script components.

  6. On Select method calls, select the web service methods you want to use in One Identity Manager. A script is generated for each of the selected methods in the next step.

  7. A script is generated to call the selected method on the Generate web service call page. Enter all the required parameter and properties for this.

    • Click to specify the type of method call.

      Table 182: Type of method call
      Type Description
      Self-defined web service call For more information, see Self-defined web service call.
      Direct web service call For more information, see Direct web service call.
      Generic web service call For more information, see Generic web service call.
      Table 183: Script properties
      Property Description
      Script name Name of script. Prefix custom scripts with CCC_.

      Script names for the generic web service call must follow the following format:

      <customer prefix>_<table>_<target system>_<event>

      Select the table, target system and event to create the script for. Parameter, value type and data table are automatically determined from the selected table.

      Parameter Name of the parameter.
      Value type Parameter data type.
      Data table Data table that contains the data to be transferred to the web service.
      Return value Data type of the parameter containing the return value.
      Table 184: Data transfer
      Property Description
      Parameter Parameter transferred to the web service.
      Value type Parameter data type.
      Mapped from Parameter from the defined script properties. Open the menu and assign the associated parameters. If necessary, select the column from the data table which contains the value to be passed.

      In the Script code view, you see the generated script. You can use extended edit mode to edit the script.

      TIP: The script calls the VID_GetWcfWebService function, which in turn, uses the GetWcfBinding and GetWcfEndpointAddress functions. These three functions can be overwritten.
  8. To end the Web Service Integration Wizard, click Finish.

SOAP Web Service

One Identity Manager's SOAP Web Service provides a SOAP interface for accessing the One Identity Manager object model. The SOAP Web Service manages a connection pool. Not every call opens a new connection. Not all object layer functions are support by the SOAP Web Service. The SOAP Web Service supplies methods for single objects, object lists, and function call.
