Allow Wsdl discovery to return a fully resolved flat wsdl file for soap input nodes and for services.

Allow Wsdl discovery to return a fully resolved flat wsdl file for soap input nodes and for services. Currently "a service does support ?WSDL, but it is not flattened. You have to use ?XSD to discover schema that is used or ?WSDL to discover further wsdl that is used."

    Idea / RFE Review. Apologies for the length of time this RFE has been held in Uncommitted Candidate / Future Consideration status. This suggestion has now been open since August 2012 and unfortunately through that time has only received 2 votes from the community. Whilst the suggestion is still valid, and would no doubt provide a usability improvement to having to resolve multiple queries in order to obtain the preferred style of WSDL, this is not an area of business investment for us right now ... Given the industry focus on REST APIs, and the shift in this direction, it is hard to prioritise Web Services enhancements. Unfortunately on this occasion we do not intend to take this suggestion further forward.

    Thanks for raising this requirement. This is a good incremental enhancement to our ?WSDL support; as you say, it would improve efficiency of web service lookups by allowing both the structure and the format of the web services to be discovered in a single step.
