Configuring permissions to Web services in webservices.properties

You can configure the webservices.properties file to restrict user access or grant permissions to WorldServer Web services of your choice.

Procedure

  1. On the WorldServer machine, navigate to the configuration directory of the Web application to find the webservices.properties file. Here are some possible locations of this file:
    • If WorldServer is running on Windows under Tomcat, the webservices.properties file is typically located in:
      • %WS_CONFIG%\<application name>
      • c:\Program Files\Idiom\WorldServer\tomcat\webapps\<application name>\WEB-INF\classes\config
    • If WorldServer is running on Linux under Tomcat, the webservices.properties file is typically located in:
      • $WS_CONFIG/<application name>
      • /usr/local/idiom/worldserver/tomcat/webapps/<application name>/WEB-INF/classes/config
  2. Open webservices.properties with a text editor and configure which Web services and methods are available to your users.
