   The Control-M for Web Services Connection Profile Management dialog box appears.

2. Select the connection profile that you want to edit, and click .

   The Update <connection profile> Connection Profile dialog box appears.

3. In the Update <connection profile> Connection Profile you can change the following settings:
   • Connection Profile Name
   • Web Service Source
   • Web Service Location
   • HTTP Authentication

     NOTE: HTTP Authentication is effective for this Connection Profile only and overrides any global settings in the Options window.

   • (REST only) If log in is required, the parameters as described in REST log in parameters.

   NOTE: To change proxy host, port, ignore list, HTTP authentication and CM port, see Modifying Control-M for Web Services connection profile settings.

4. Review the connection profile details and click Test (optional).

   If the test completes successfully, the connection profile validates and you can now define a Web Services job, as described in Web Services job definition . If the test fails, review the error message and test it again.

   NOTE: If the Cannot send parameters to WS CM Extension error message appears, do the following:

   • Open the <Agent>\data\wsprofile.dat and set the WSHOSTNAME to a fully qualified hostname or IP address. This often happens in an environment where the Agent is a multi-homed system.
   • If the problem persists, check if the port number for the WSPORTNUM parameter is not already used by another application on the Agent machine and change if necessary.
5. Click OK.

   The connection profile is updated in the Control-M for Web Services Connection Profile Management dialog box.
