WSDL (Web Services Description Language)

Communicate with Web service from MATLAB® using WSDL (Web Services Description Language)

A WSDL document uses a standard format to describe a server's operations, arguments, and transactions. To use the server APIs in MATLAB, use the matlab.wsdl.createWSDLClient function, which creates a MATLAB class.

Functions
