View the SOAP message handlers of a Web service

Before you begin

You must install a Web service before you can view any associated SOAP message handlers. See Install a Web service.


A Web service uses SOAP message handlers to intercept the request and response SOAP messages generated when the Web service is invoked by a client application. A Web service can have zero or more SOAP message handlers configured.

To view the SOAP message handlers configured for a Web service, follow these steps:

  1. In the left pane of the Administration Console, select Deployments.
  2. In the right pane, navigate within the Deployments table until you find the Web service whose configured SOAP message handlers you want to view.

    Note: Web services are deployed as part of an Enterprise application, Web application, or EJB. To understand how Web services are displayed in the Administration Console, see View installed Web services.

  3. In the Deployments table, click the name of the Web service.
  4. Select Configuration > Handlers. The table lists the SOAP message handlers configured for your Web service, along with the handler Java class that implements the handler, the Web service port to which it applies, and whether the handler processes and SOAP headers.
  5. Click the handler name to view additional information about a specific handler.
  6. Select General to view general information about the specific handler.
  7. Select Init Params to view the initialization parameters that are configured for this handler.
