Load (button)

The load button loads the WSDL at the specified URL and tries to automatically populate the input and output tabs and fields. NOTE: If this doesn’t work, you can still try to manually specify the input and output fields using the "Add Input" and "Add Output" buttons.

The number of rows per call

The number of rows to send with each WSDL call

Pass input data to output

If you disable this, the input will be eaten and only the WSDL output will be passed along to the next steps. v2.x/3.x compatibility mode We improved the parsing engine of the 3.x engine dramatically. For compatibility reasons, we kept the old engine around to make sure older steps would still work OK.

Repeating element name

Specify the name of the repeating element in the output XML (if any).

HTTP authentication

Here you can put the username and password if these are required for the web service.

Proxy to use

Here you can optionally put the proxy host and port information.

Add Input / Add Output

These buttons will allow you to manually specify the input and output specifications of the WSDL service. Note: The data of the input fields can be escaped by the Calculator step and the function "Mask XML content from string A"
