The PortType Element

The PortType element describes one or more Operation elements. PortType elements are always created as children of the Definitions element.

How to Create a PortType Element

1. Select the Definitions (root) element.

Stylus Studio adds a PortType element to the WSDL as a child of the Definitions element. The default name is portType-0, but you can change it. PortType names must be unique within a WSDL document.

How to Rename a PortType Element

To rename a PortType element:
1. Double-click the PortType element in the WSDL diagram.

The name becomes editable.

2. Type a new name and press enter.

Alternative: Using the Properties window

1. Display the Properties window if it is not already open. ( View > Properties).
