Create Connection using external WSDL in Oracle Integration Cloud Service

Let's assume we have some custom WSDL and want to use this WSDL in Oracle Integration Cloud Service.

ICS provides SOAP adapter that allows us to create SOAP connection with the WSDL that is locally saved in our desktop.

Let's deep dive and see how to use the existing WSDL.

Create a SOAP connection with below steps:

• Click Create button from the Connection page
• Search SOAP and Select SOAP adapter

• Enter below information and click on Create button
• Name: Any meaningful name of your choice
• Identifier: Identifier would be picked up automatically from the Name however we can update this
• Role: Select Trigger and Invoke
• Description: Optional description

• Click on Configure Connectivity button
• From the opened Connection properties dialog box, select the checkbox corresponding to WSDL URL and upload the WSDL

    <operation name="requestOperation">

      <input message="tns:EmpServicePort_request"/>

      <output message="tns:EmpServicePort_response"/>

      <fault name="EmpFault" message="tns:EmpSeriveFault"/>     

    </operation>

  </portType>

  <message name="EmpServicePort_request">

    <part name="part" element="weo:request"/>

  </message>

  <message name="EmpServicePort_response">

    <part name="part" element="weo:response"/>

  </message>

  <message name="EmpSeriveFault">

    <part name="part" element="weo:fault"/>

  </message> 

</definitions>

• Once uploaded click on OK button

• Click on Configure Security button then enter ICS credentials and click on OK button

• Click Test button from upper corner then click Validate and Test button

• If WSDL is valid then connection will reach to 100%

Now we can use this SOAP connection as a Trigger point in the ICS integration to expose SOAP service.
