You are viewing the documentation for Blueriq 17. Documentation for other versions is available in our documentation directory.
When you want to see a basic example of Blueriq as a Service (BAAS), the quickest way is to create a new project, based on the example project WebCalculator (that comes with a standard Blueriq installation).
You will see that this project has a Configuration module in which the Web service and its operations are defined. This is what you expose to the outside world in your runtime dashboard. The project also has an Interaction module, that contains a service model (i.e. a domain model specifically for delivering the service), a Schema set and SOAP service as defined in the WSDL and XSD. When you expose the web service in your runtime dashboard, you can also view this WSDL. In the same Implementation module, some static instances are made for the response. For each operation this web service offers (add, subtract, multiply and divide), the actual calculation is simply done in the default expression of the appropriate attribute.
You can test if the BaaS works by calling it from SoapUI, a web services testing tool (it can mock both requests and responses) that is easy to download and install.
You can check the other BAAS visuals for modeling your own simple BAAS or a more elaborate example of a BAAS that has a data mapping.
