Brief Service Access Method: Provides the information necessary to invoke basic SOAP-
over-HTTP-based service instances without using WSDL.
EndPoint URL: This is the SOAP endpoint location at the service provider to which

Liberty SOAP messages are sent. An example of this for the Employee Profile is
[BASEURL]/services/IDSISEmployeeProfile. If the service instance exposes an endpoint
that is different from the logically generated concrete WSDL, you must use the WSDL
URI instead.
A WSF service description endpoint cannot contain double-byte characters.
SOAP Action: The SOAP action HTTP header required on HTTP-bound SOAP

messages. This header can be used to indicate the intent of a SOAP message to the
recipient.

(Web Service Description Language) describes the interface of a Web service.
 Service Name Reference: A reference name for the service.
WSDL URI: Provides a URI to an external concrete WSDL resource containing the

service description. URIs need to be constant across all implementations of a service to
enable interoperability.

13.2.4 Editing Web Service Policies

Web Service policies are permission policies (query and modify) that govern how identity providers

whether private information is always allowed to be given, never allowed, or must be requested.
As an administrator, you can configure this information for the policy owner, for specific service
providers, or globally for all service providers. You can also specify what policies are displayed for
the end user in the User Portal, and whether users are allowed to edit them.
