Overview

The Web Service Task allows you to invoke a Web Service running on any application server.

Anchor
SSL TLS Secured HTTPS
SSL TLS Secured HTTPS

SSL/TLS Secured HTTPS

Web Service Tasks support the use of https:// instead of the non-encrypted http:// for the Web Service Task URL.

This requires setting up a truststore (keystore) and setting the following properties in the Universal Controller Start-up Properties (uc.properties) file:

You must make sure that the HTTPS server's certificate (or root certificate) exists in the truststore that is referenced by these two properties. This is required to validate the remote web service providers identity. Universal Controller does not provide an option to bypass https certificate validation.

The hostname in your URL is verified against the certificate and must match the certificate's CN (Common Name) or SAN (Subject Alternative Name).

Preemptive Authentication

The default behavior of Apache HttpClient library used by the Web Service task is to not use pre-emptive authentication out of the box, because if misused or used incorrectly, the preemptive authentication can lead to significant security issues, such as sending user credentials in clear text to an unauthorized third party.

Therefore, users are expected to evaluate potential benefits of preemptive authentication versus security risks in the context of their specific application environment.  Thus, Web Service Tasks using Basic Authentication will not pre-emptively send authentication credentials until prompted by the receiving API. Please see the following link for more information. 

https://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-4.5.x/current/tutorial/html/authentication.html#d5e717

Built-In Variables

The following built-in variables can be used in a Web Service task to pass data where appropriate:

Creating a Web Service Task

Step 1

From the Automation Center navigation pane, select Tasks > Web Service Tasks. The Web Service Tasks list displays a list of all currently defined Web Service tasks.
 
To the right of the list, Web Service Task Details for a new Web Service task displays.
 

Step 2

Enter/select Details for a new Web Service task, using the field descriptions below as a guide.

  • Required fields display an asterisk ( * ) after the field name.
  • Default values for fields, if available, display automatically.

To display more of the Details fields on the screen, you can either:

  • Use the scroll bar.
  • Temporarily hide the list above the Details.
  • Click the  button above the list to display a pop-up version of the Details.

Step 3

Click the  button. The task is added to the database, and all buttons and tabs in the Task Details are enabled.


Note
titleNote

To open an existing record on the list, either:

  • Click a record in the list to display its record Details below the list. (To clear record Details below the list, click the New button that displays above and below the Details.)
  • Clicking the Details icon next to a record name in the list, or right-click a record in the list and then click Open in the Action menu that displays, to display a pop-up version of the record Details.
  • Right-click a record in the a list, or open a record and right-click in the record Details, and then click Open In Tab in the Action menu that displays, to display the record Details under a new tab on the record list page (see Record Details as Tabs).
