Creating the Consumer Application Service

To create a new Consumer Application Service:

Select PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Application Services, and then Manage Application Services.
Select Create Application Service.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Application Services – General Information page to create a new Consumer Application Service. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Field or Control	Description
App Service ID	Service ID for the Application Service.
Service Type	When you create a new Consume Application Service, the Service Type is Primary only.
Service URL ID	Service URL ID forms a part of the endpoint URL. It identifies the service to be executed.

The Save action will perform the following:

Verify that the Service URL ID value meets the Oracle standard for an URL value. If valid, the value will then be checked against Integration Broker Service Alias's to insure it is unique. If the value does not meet this criteria, a pop up message will be displayed.

This example illustrates the Service URL ID validation message.

Correct the Service URL ID and save the application service.
When the Service URL ID is valid, save processing will generate the necessary IB metadata, update the Service Name and enable the Create Root Resource button.
