Keep manual changes after WSDL update for a REST Proxy based on a WSDL

When using a REST API Proxy created "from existing WSDL service (REST proxy)" every manual changes done on the API (like adding a XSLT, a gatewayscript,...) is lost after a WSDL update.


We have to manually add again all the changes. Depending on the API, this can be time consuming and create errors.


It would be good to have the manual changes kept after WSDL update

    Thank you for submitting this request but without additional details we can not proceed with this RFE.

    Can you please provide the screenshots/samples so that we can reproduce the steps as defined in the ticket. For data-privacy reasons these files are only viewable by our support team and can not be shared. Specifically the steps in Number 4 - 6 as when adding/deleting new Target Service. Based on a test adding a new target service in v10.0.8 does not modify defined in the assembly.execute section. Only when that new WebService Operation is pulled from the pallet does it modify the assembly.

    We do believe that you are seeing specific behavior but the Product management team is looking to replicate the behavior in v10.0.8.x to understand the use case better.

    1. Create a new API from existing WSDL service (REST Proxy) (you can use the "HelloWorld.wsdl" present in helloworldtest_1.0.0.zip)

    2. After the API is created add a gateway script in the policy (see V1_INITIAL.png)

    3. Create a new copy of the API (2.0.0 in my case)

    4. Update the local WSDL (you can use "HelloWorld_V2.wsdl" present in helloworldtest_2.0.0.zip)

    5. In the V2 version, "Upload WSDL" (see update_wsdl.png and update_wsdl_load.png) by choosing "HelloWorld_V2.wsdl"

    6. After the V2 is updated, You can see that the gateway script created in step 2 disappeared from the policy (see "V2_AFTER_UPDATE.png" )
