Work with web service (JAX-WS) bindings
When you use web service (JAX-WS) bindings with your applications, you can add a Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) quality of service (QOS) to the binding. You must first use the administrative console to import the policy set. You can also use the administrative console to make sure that the server is properly configured for use with the web service (JAX-WS) binding.
- Importing SAML policy sets
Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an XML-based OASIS standard for exchanging user identity and security attributes information. When you configure a web service (JAX-WS) binding in Integration Designer, you can specify an SAML policy set. You first use the administrative console of IBM BPM to make the SAML policy sets available so that they can be imported into Integration Designer.- Invoking web services that require HTTP basic authentication
HTTP basic authentication employs a user name and password to authenticate a service client to a secure endpoint. You can set up HTTP basic authentication when sending or receiving web service requests.- Checking the server configuration
When you deploy an application with a web service (JAX-WS) binding, you must make sure that the server on which the application is deployed does not have the Start components as needed option selected.
