  - Web Services Service Provider (WSSP)
    The Web Services Service Provider extends Workflow capabilities by allowing you to use SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) web services that provide WSDL (Web Services Description Language) metadata.
    - Add a web services definition
      A web service definition must point to a valid WSDL file that contains all of the endpoints and methods you want to use for the web service. You can create multiple web service definitions, each pointing to a different WSDL URL.
    - Configure endpoints for a web service
      Endpoints are used to connect to a web service.
    - Customize send timeout settings for a web services call
      You can change the send timeout setting for your web service.
    - Delete a web service definition
      If your web service definition is not being used by a running workflow instance, you can delete it.
    - Test the web service methods
      You can test the methods contained in the web service's WSDL file before you use them in a workflow call method activity or in a form.
    - Refresh the web service definition
      If your web service definition has changed, you can refresh it.
    - Endpoint Attributes for a Web Services Service Provider
      You can configure the endpoints to use for the current web service.
    - Web Service Test
      The Test tab is used to execute the methods published by the web service. This allows you to determine whether the methods produce results as expected before using them in a call method or form.
    - Web Service Refresh
      The Refresh tab is used to change the current web service definition by using either a different WSDL file or an updated version of the same file. If there is no change, the web service is not refreshed.
    - Limitations for Web Services Service Provider
      Operators may experience one or more issues when using the Web Services Service Provider (WSSP). This topic provides information to workflow authors about the issues that operators may experience during run time due to design-time configurations.
