Invoking a WF process exposed as a web service ?

Former Community Member
Can someone tell me the context path to the WF Sever WSDL and info on initiating a process via a web service call ? I can find plenty of information about enabling the WS interface but nothing on actually calling it.



To be clear... I'm not talking about using the Web Service QPAC to call a WS from within a workflow.. I'm talking about the WS interface for initiating and interacting with a process instance.



Thanks

Hi, what's the URL on WebSphere? is it the same as what Chris posted?

"The URL to the WSDL (on JBoss) is http://serverName:port/services/processTypeName?WSDL"

is it still the same in LC ES2.5 ?

thanks

Rob,



also remember to select "Web Service Access" option in the "New Workflow" dialogue box.



See, this nice post by Ben Watson here:

Can a web service start a workflow?

Hi<br /><br />Just another note...<br /><br />It appears that if you have binary or document objects specified as input parameters to your workflow, then the automatically generated web-user-interface at:<br />http://localhost:8080/services/service.jsp?service=<WorkflowName><br />will not work.<br /><br />Howard
