Service Development Help : Working with UDDI Registry : Connecting to a UDDI Registry
Connecting to a UDDI Registry
To use Designer to view or publish web services, you must first connect to a UDDI registry.
Keep the following points in mind when connecting to a UDDI registry:
*Designer supports UDDI v3 only. It will not connect to a registry based on earlier versions of UDDI.
*You must have a valid UDDI v3 registry account, configured with the proper permissions to perform UDDI activities.
*The specified UDDI v3 registry must contain at least one business entity. A business entity is a logical grouping of web services, used to represent businesses and providers within UDDI. You must publish each web service within a business entity.
*You can only connect to one UDDI registry at a time from Designer. To connect to another UDDI registry, you must first disconnect from the existing session.
*While connecting to a UDDI registry, if you enter only the Inquiry URL, the UDDI connection will be unauthenticated. You can only view entities or services that are viewable anonymously as per the registry policies. To publish a web service, you must authenticate the connection by providing Security URL, Publish URL, UDDI user ID, and password.

1. In UDDI Registry view, right-click and select Open UDDI Registry Session.
2. In the Open UDDI Registry Session dialog box, select Add New Registry.
