SOAP API for the UDDI Registry

 

Access to the SOAP API will by default be available at:

http://localhost:9080/uddisoap/inquiryapi
https://localhost:9443/uddisoap/publishapi

Where 'localhost' is the address by which your WebSphere server is known. If security is enabled on your WebSphere server, the publishapi will also be protected by basic-authentication. By default, when security is enabled, the publishapi is restricted to HTTPS, this is to ensure the confidentiality and security of your data whilst in transit to UDDI. If you do not wish to use SSL, when security is enabled, you will have to modify the jar file using AAT to remove the CONFIDENTIAL restriction placed upon the publish URLs. For more information about this topic, see the section on Configure SOAP properties with the AAT If you normally access your WebSphere server via a web server, you will need to ensure the plugin configuration for the WebSphere plugin on the web server has been updated since installing UDDI. This will then allow access to the UDDI SOAP API through the URLs

http://localhost/uddisoap/inquiryapi
https://localhost/uddisoap/publishapi

Where 'localhost' is the address by which your web server is accessed. Note that if you plan on accessing UDDI via a web server in this manner, that the samples will require modification to inform them of the SSL certificates used by your web server, so that the samples can make SSL connections to the web server. It is beyond the scope of this document to cover the many variants available on web server/WebSphere/java SSL configurations
