2.26 Partner Links Dialog

Use to manage (create, update, and delete) the partner links with which your BPEL process interacts.

A partner link characterizes the conversational relationship between two services. It defines the roles played by each service in the conversation and specifies the port type provided by each service to receive messages within the context of the conversation.

For more information about partner links, see the Business Process Execution Language for Web Services Specification (for BPEL 1.1) or the Web Services Business Process Execution Language Version 2.0 Specification at http://www.oasis-open.org.
