You create WSDL thru that process only for your soap sender.

If you are calling an external webservice thru soap receiver, you need to use the wsdl of the that webservice.ID will not help you to get the wsdl for this purpose.

Hi,

If you want to test the scenarios, to work on then there are some free webservices available.

For this refer this blog-

These blogs are good starters.

Ahmad,

Go to www.xmethods.com. There you can find lot of web services which u can execute from XI. U can download the WSDL for each service from that site.
