BMC Impact Manager web service

This section describes the BMC Impact Manager web service that can be accessed through the Impact Manager web service port.

The BMC Impact Manager web service consists of the single-port Impact Manager. This port specifies where you can access the Impact Manager binding, through which the portType operations and messages are transmitted. The binding, and therefore the service, can be accessed via the endpoint (URI) described by the location attribute of the soap:address child element of the Impact Manager port.

The service element of the ImpactManager.wsdl is declared as follows:

<wsdl:service name="ImpactManager">
	<wsdl:port name="ImpactManager" binding=
		"tns:ImpactManager">
		<soap:address location:"urn:unknown-location-uri"/>
	</wsdl:port>
</wsdl:service>

When configuring your BMC Impact Integration Web Services server, you can specify the address location (URI) where the web service client or clients can access it. At run time, this address is read by the BMC Impact Integration Web Services server and is made available through the soap:address element of the < wsdl:service > section.

For example, if your BMC Impact Integration Web Services server is configured to start at the endpoint http://abc:6070/imapi , then the ImpactManager.wsdl reveals the address location as a value of the < soap:address > element.

		<soap: address location:"http://abc:6070/imapi"/>
