The Metadata Business Service API
Table 3 lists the API methods for accessing the Metadata Business Service. Third-party applications do not invoke the methods of the Metadata Business Service directly. Instead, the methods are invoked by calling the InvokeMethod method of the Siebel COM Data Control or Java Data Bean API. For more information about these APIs, see Siebel Tools Online Help.
There is a specific order that the methods are called in.
- Call GetApplicationDef or LoadSubscription (to use LoadSubscription you must have previously used GetApplicationDef and saved a subscription).
- Call SaveSubscription (can be called multiple times in one session).
- Call CreateStyleSheets (can be called multiple times in one session).
- Call MetadataCleanup.
NOTE: The Metadata Business Service is instantiated just like any other Siebel business service. You can instantiate the Metadata Business Service though the Siebel COM Data Control, the Java Data Bean Control, the XML Web Interface to SWE or any other object interface. For the COM and Java controls, you use the GetService(service_name) method on the application object. For the SWE interface, you use the LoadService(service_name) command.
