Connecting to webMethods Integration Server
To implement a web service in your Composite Application Framework application, you must create a web service connector within your application. However, you must create a connection from Designer to an instance of Integration Server before you can create a web service connector.
You must have a valid user account on the Integration Server before you can complete this task. The account must be configured with the Access Control Lists (ACLs) required to access and work with the Integration Server packages and services that you want to use. For more information about working with ACLs, see webMethods Integration Server Administrator’s Guide.
