| WSDL |
Web Services Definition. WSDL uses a common format to describe and publish the formats, operations, and protocols of a web service. WSDL elements describe data using one or more XML schemas. These schemas are passed to the web service. The description of the data tells the receiver how to process the data, and the binding to a protocol or transport instructs the sending how to send the data. Both parties must have access to the same XML schema. WSDL is used with SOAP APIs. |
