Control-M for Web Services connection profile parameters

The following table describes the Control-M for Web Services connection profile parameters.

Parameter

Description

Web Service Source

Specifies the source for the connection profile to be created.

Valid values:

  • Local File System: Schedules jobs that execute web services based on the WSDL source file located on the Agent machine.
  • Web Service URL: Schedules jobs that execute web services, based on the WSDL source that is managed from a web server.
  • REST: Schedule jobs that execute REST services

Web Service Location

  • Local File System: Specifies a path to the directory containing the WSDL files.
  • Web Service URL: Specifies A URL that points to the location of one specific WSDL file
  • REST: Specifies the base URL location to the RESTful services, excluding the specific resource context path.

If the URL starts with HTTPS, retrieve the SSL certificate from the target URL (for example, open the URL in an internet browser and save the SSL certificate from the browser options menu) and import the certificate into a local keystore where the Agent is installed. Open <Agent>/data/wsprofile.dat and add the following parameters under the [GENERAL] section:

-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore <keystore file path>

-Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword <keystore password>

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore <truststore file path>

-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword <truststore password>

Execute <Agent>/cm/WS/exe/stopwscm to refresh the update.

HTTP Authentication

Defines a specification for simple text authentication (user password per realm). Optional.

Valid format: user:password@realm1; user:password@realm2

One user per realm only.

The value is encrypted in the account file with a default encryption key. For more information about customizing the default encryption key see Changing the HTTP Authentication encryption key.

NOTE: If you want HTTP Authentication for each connection profile rather than globally, you can enter details when creating or editing the Connection Profile.
