Web Services Policy data instances
SOAP connectors can use Web Services Policy data instances to securely communicate with a WS-Policy annotated webservice. A WS-Policy annotated Web service exposes its security policy by embedding a WS-Policy element in the WSDL. The WS-Policy contains a set of assertions that represent the capabilities and requirements of a Web service. The SOAP connector can understand these assertions and apply necessary security to the payload accordingly.
The following tabs are available on this form:
Where referenced

Associated ruleset
When you save a Web Services Policy data instance, or open an existing one, it is automatically associated with the RuleSet of the Application rule for the current application. This association assists with application packaging. You can update the associated RuleSet using the field in the upper right corner of the form. See Identifying parts of rule and data forms.
If there is no RuleSet associated with the data instance (for example, for existing
instances not previously associated with a RuleSet), the Associated RuleSet displays
[none].
