Web Services

The CA IdentityMinder Task Execution Web Service (TEWS) enables third-party client applications to submit CA IdentityMinder tasks to CA IdentityMinder for execution remotely.

The Web Services Properties screen lets you configure the TEWS for an environment. On this screen, you can do the following tasks:

• Enable TEWS for a CA IdentityMinder environment.
• Generate task-specific Web Services Definition Language (WSDL) documents.
• Allow impersonation.
• Specify that the Admin password is required for authentication.
• Configure SiteMinder authentication.
• Configure SiteMinder to secure the web services URL, if CA IdentityMinder integrates with SiteMinder
• Specify Web Security Services Username token authentication.
• Specify at least one of the three possible authentication types.

For information regarding issuing remote requests to CA IdentityMinder through the Task Execution Web Service, see the Programming Guide for Java.
