Viewing Web Service Details
You use the Web Service details page to examine the WSDL documentation.
The following general guidelines apply when examining the details of a Web Service asset in CentraSite Business UI:
If you are not the owner of a Web Service, you cannot view the Web Service details page unless you have a View permission on the Web Service (granted though either a role-based permission or instance-level permission).
You will only see profiles of the Web Service for which you have an instance-level View permission.
In this task you examine the basic and type-specific attributes that are associated with a Web Service asset. You can view the bindings, operations, WSDL file, associated schema files, and the external links to the WSDL and schema files.
