Import all services from CentraSite that you know could be required in the database you are modeling in. You can use % or * as a placeholder for one or more characters (not in the ID field). For example, the entry of ABC%DEF or ABC*DEF returns all strings that start with ABC, end with DEF and have any number of any type of characters in between. The % or * placeholder is automatically assumed at the end of a string. You can restrict the search to the service status and the person responsible.
Procedure
Log in to the database.
Click ARIS > Explorer. The Explorer tab opens.
Activate the Services tab bar.
Select the relevant group and click Import services from CentraSite.
Log in to the CentraSite server and select the relevant services. If you plan to use the service in a process scheduled for implementation, make sure that it is not abstract.
The Import services from CentraSite opens.
Specify the relevant settings and click OK.
The services are imported.
Each binding can only be imported once. If the WSDL file of a service that has bindings is imported and the WSDL file of a second service is used that has bindings as well, the second service cannot be imported because due to the use of the second service in the first, the binding was already imported.
The following internal services cannot be imported into ARIS and should not be used in models:
UDDI Publish API Services
UDDI Inquiry Services
UDDI Custody and Ownership Transfer API
UDDI Security Service
LifecycleManagementService
ImportXPDLService
