Connecting to the Oracle Empirica Topics web service
To connect your application to the Oracle Empirica Topics web service, you need to set up web service properties in your code:
- The end point address—This is the URL address of the Oracle Empirica Topics web service such as
https://<hostname >:<port number /TopicsService/ws/topicsService
It is recommended that the Oracle Empirica Topics web service run with SSL so that your application attaches to the service using HTTPS.
- Http chunk size when sending large attachments (for Java only)—This property specifies the maximum chunking size that the web service uses when sending attachments.
- Username—This is the Oracle Empirica Topics service user name.
- Password—This is the Oracle Empirica Topics service password.
You also need to enable the
MTOMFeature
in your proprietary application when calling Oracle Empirica Topics web service APIs that send attachments.
If you have a Java application or your application uses .NET:
- Java integration
For Java applications, set theMTOMFeature
for your web service. Also set up WS SECURITY and the username token policy by defining theSecurityPoliciesFeature
for your web service. - .NET integration
If your application uses .NET, you specify similar properties to the Java integration to connect to the Oracle Empirica Topics web service, but for .NET the calls to connect are different. For example, your application will pass the Oracle Empirica Topics service URL as a parameter to connect to the Oracle Empirica Signal web service.
