External Definition

[Former Member]

Where are these definitions created? Can they be created in the IR? Could anyone send a code of this as a reference.

Dear Aprajitha,

You can create External Definitons in IR.You can use External definitons when you want to import external structure. No need to create Data Type. Below is the sample wsdl file. Just import this in external definition. You can see the structure in Mapping clearly.
