12	12	By endpoint check, we mean: determine whether the WSDL is accessible on the correct endpoint so we can forward the URL to the WSDL + the URL to call to our external parties

15		-* Starts with https:// or http://
16		-* Second part is the host (i.e. where is the endpoint running)
17		-* Third part is the port on which the incoming traffic is accepted
18		-* These three things combined make up the first part of our endpoint that will vary per environment
19		-* Following that we have a static remainder of the endpoint that is build up as follows: /ws/{path-specific-servlet-mapping}/
20		-* If you want to get to the WSDL simply add the name of the WSDL and the .wsdl extension to the endpoint when viewing it in the browser

24	24	When setting up a point at which your customers can talk to you eMagiz offers various methods of creating such a point. One of those options is by hosting a SOAP Webservice in eMagiz that handles XML messages asynchronously or synchronously. One last check to perform before you can communicate with the external parties that the endpoint is available to receive messages and up and running. In this microlearning, we will learn how you can perform such a check.

34	34	As you can see the endpoint can be divided into two parts. One part is dynamic across environments and one part is static across environments. Let us first determine how we can find out the first part of our endpoint.

42	42	The next part of the endpoint is the host. The host is effectively the (virtual) machine on which the endpoint is running. When hosting an endpoint in the eMagiz cloud the host part is the combination between the DNS left-most label on Route level and the cloudslot on which your environment is running. The first part of the equation can be found under Deploy -> Architecture. The second part can be found under Deploy -> Properties by looking for the {technicalnameproject}.amqp01.host. You need to combine the two elements via a dash -. An example of this would then be spwbsrv-test-cloud0001.emagizcloud.com. In case of an on-premise installation, you should ask your customer what the IP address or DNS name is to connect to the machine on which your runtime is running. If the runtime is running locally on your laptop the host equals localhost.

	44	+=== 3.3 Port and Path ===
45	45
46	46	Whether or not the port needs to be defined to get to the endpoint is once again determined by the location. If the endpoint is hosted in the eMagiz Cloud the port is *not* part of the endpoint. However, when you host your endpoint locally the endpoint becomes part of your endpoint. Note that to make this piece work in the eMagiz Cloud you should set up your Route properly. More on that in our Cloud Management courses. You can determine the port, for the endpoint or the route, by navigating to the infra flow of the runtime through which you host your SOAP web service. In the infra flow you can also find the remainder of the path to get to the WSDL location.
47	47
48		-In the infra flow there is a support object of the type "Dynamic WSDL". In here you see the default location of the hosted SOAP endpoint, which is http://localhost:${entry.connector.ws.port}/ws/{soap WS name}/. Based on this, you can find the WSDL by adding {soap WS name}.wsdl to the URI. In this example, when hosting the SOAP web service on-premise, a valid URI would be "http://localhost:8099/ws/soapgn3-connector/soapgn3-connector.wsdl".

An example URI, in that case, would be "https://soap-test-cloud0000.emagizcloud.com/ws/soapgn3-connector/soapgn3-connector.wsdl"{{/info}}

54		-=== 3.5 Verifying the WSDL location ===
55		-
56		-To get to the WSDL to verify if it is available to be shared with external parties the last thing you need is the WSDL name. You can find this one, surprisingly enough, in the Jetty component. To get to the WSDL name double click on the servlet that is defined under the heading Servlets and navigate to the Advanced tab. Here you will see the name of the WSDL. If you have adhered to the default of eMagiz the name will mimic the name of your path-specific servlet mapping.
