10 Accessing the Chargeback Web Service Interfaces
Accessing WSDL
The Web Service Description Language or WSDL (see Reference [1]) definition of chargeback
operations can be accessed from any installed chargeback system using a web browser. For
example, if the software is installed on a server with an IP address of <cms-ip-address>, enter
the following in the web browser to access the WSDL:
https://<cms-ip-address>:55443/hpio/chargeback/soap/v1?wsdl
The browser will show the formal XML definition of the web service interface.
The WSDL also can be accessed through a command line interface (CLI) using a BAT file. The
chargeback.bat tool is found in the default location at C:\Program Files\HP\Matrix
infrastructure orchestration\chargeback\bin.
Security
The chargeback web service is accessible only over HTTPS. The service uses WS-Security
UsernameToken authentication in text form. A username and password of a registered IO
administrator is required to access the web service interface. A WS-Security timestamp header is
also required.
Authorization
If the presented username/password corresponds to a registered IO user who has the role of
Administrator, the web services returns the requested data. For username/password corresponds
to registered users with the role of Architect or User, the web services will return an authorization
error.
