Download Workflow

This is an example of a workflow that contains a call to a secure Web service that runs behind HTTPS and requires user to authenticate. The first thing you can expect to see is a pop up dialog asking if you trust the Web service to be invoked over HTTPS. You can use testuser/testpasswd as username and password for authentication when running the workflow. To see where the security is being configured, right-click the service in the diagram and select "Configure security" from the menu.

You may experience problems running this workflow under versions of Java greater than 1.6. This is due to a change in security handling.
