Wiki Page: 03 - How to Control the Corticon Server using Web Services Calls from Rollbase

[mparish]

NOTE: This functionality has now been implemented in Corticon 5.5 Corticon Server Admin Functions All of the Corticon Admin functions are available as web service calls. You can find all the WSDL here in the server console You could import the WSDL into SOAP UI for a quick way to run them. Here’s a screenshot and the SOAP UI project So you could manage just about everything by making web services calls if you wanted to. GetCcServerInfo SOAP Request SOAP Response Accomplishing this from Rollbase You will need to set up an object script for each different call you want to make to CorticonAdmin.
