The
API Gateway
 can search and publish a web service listed in a supported UDDI (Universal Description, Discovery and Integration) registry. The
CA API Gateway
 uses the APIs in a supported UDDI registry product to retrieve WSDL information about the web services registered in the UDDI registry. UDDI search results are initiated and displayed in the Publish to UDDI Settings and the Publish SOAP Web Service Wizard.
For a list of the registry types supported, see "UDDI Registry Products" in Requirements and Compatibility.
The Manage UDDI Registries task is used to create, remove, or edit UDDI registries. Ensure that the UDDI registry product has been correctly installed, configured, and is accessible to the Gateway.
If the
API Gateway
 only has HTTPS endpoints, ensure that the specific UDDI registry has been configured to trust the
API Gateway
 SSL certificate. For assistance, please contact your administrator for the UDDI registry.
To manage UDDI registries
:
  1. In the Policy Manager, select
    [Tasks] > Global Settings > Manage UDDI Registries
    from the Main Menu (on the browser client, from the Manage menu). The Manage UDDI Registries dialog appears. 
  2. The following table describes each column; these are set in the UDDI registry's properties:
    Column
    Description
    Enabled
    Indicates whether the UDDI registry is enabled. If disabled, the UDDI registry is no longer usable, but it will continue to be displayed in drop-down lists showing all registries.
    UDDI Registry Name
    A name that identifies the UDDI registry. This name must be unique.
    Base URL
    The URL for the UDDI registry. This URL is unique because it is not possible to register the same UDDI registry more than once.
