The local WSDL promotion replace the current service WSDL and XSDs with new files supplied by the user.

| Changing a service with Local WSDL to a remote WSDL or vice versa is not supported |
| Info |

DPOD only supports WSDL/XSD files that are located in the local:/// directory |
- Choose one WSDL file
- Choose zero or more XSD files (note that you can select multiple files at once from the XSD file browser.)
- Click "Upload" - this will upload your new files to DPOD (not to the DataPower!)
- If the upload was successful, click on "Execute" to request a new WSDL validation/promotion
After clicking "Execute" the next message will appear
DPOD's internal process will monitor and collect pending requests every one minute.
Validation Flow
- DPOD will use a temporary domain on a monitored device that was chosen and created by the admin.
- First DPOD will execute a custom user script that will analyze the current service's WSDL and will return all the schema files used by the sevice
- DPOD will download all the WSDL/Schema XSD files of the current service
- DPOD will execute a second custom user script that will analyze the new WSDL/Schema XSD files and will replace all the references in the files so they will point to the correct DataPower paths
- DPOD will upload the new altered WSDL/Schema XSD files to the temporary domain and will create a new service that uses this WSDL
- The new temporary service will be created without any front side handlers, so it will not be accessible.
- After creating the temporary service, DPOD will check the its DataPower's WSDL compilation status.
Messages from the validation steps may return DataPower errors or messages about service with a random name such as DD0396FC-D428-40E8-B64C-913824FD16D4 - this is the name of the temporary service used by DPOD
The same applies to message about the WSDL/Schema XSD validation, they will be uploaded to the temporary domain local storage in local:///temp-service-name/ (e.g. local:///DD0396FC-D428-40E8-B64C-913824FD16D4/)
Promotion Flow
- DPOD automatically runs the validation flow and will continue to step 2 only if the validation was successful
- Upload the altered files from the validation steps to the DataPower, create directories if needed
Existing files with the same names may be overriden. - Export the original service
- Change the WSDL address in the export
- Import the origin service again.
- Check the WSDL status and the service operational state
- If the service is not up or the WSDL status is not okay - try to rollback the operation by uploading the original WSDL/Schema XSD files to local store and importing the service again with the original unchanged WSDL address
