External Applications connect to the MId-Tier to send (and request) data from Remedy thru Web Services. So the short answer is, You will have to use it for Web Services. Web Services can be the only thing using it if you want. Fred

I was really just frying to confirm that this could not be done unless the Mid-Tier was installed. Which leads me to another question? Does it just have to be installed or do I really need to use it?

Are you saying they want you to attempt to create a web service using Remedy's Admin Tool but without setting up the Mid-Tier? If so that is not supported and not possible using Remedy's Admin tool to create a that web service.. When you create a web service through Remedy's Admin tool, the URL it generates expects you to insert the mid-tier's context path within it. Here is what a typical web service url looks like when created from the Admin tool: http://<Mid-Tier-Server>:<Port-Number>/mid-tier/WSDL/public/<AR-Server-Name/<Web-Service-Name <http://%3cMid-Tier-Server%3e:%3cPort-Number%3e/mid-tier/WSDL/public/%3cAR-Server-Name/%3cWeb-Service-Name> > So as you would notice the request is communicated to the AR Server via the Mid-Tier. You could I'm sure write a web service independent of the mid-tier without using the AR Systems Admin tool, but in order to do that you would need to write your own web plugin to the ARS. And I wonder how much of that would be supported by Remedy support should you run into a problem.. Hope this helps...

Here is my configuration: * ARS 6.03 patch 16 * WINDOWS 2003 * SQL 2K * No mid-tier We are creating a .NET help desk ticket application for our Engineering group. Currently they use Remedy but due to some personal issues the decision was made to move the Remedy application to a move advanced platform. Please do not ask any questions as to why this decision was made. My mother always told me if you can’t say something nice about someone don’t say anything at all. That being said we need to integrate Remedy with this new .NET system. I need to be able to create tickets in the new system and they need to be able to update my tickets as well as create tickets in Remedy. They have developed a Web Service for me to use to create tickets in the new system. As I understand it this will allow me to pass data to the new system and receive their ticket number back. We were originally going to user the .NET API to allow them to update/create tickets in my system. It was suggested to me that maybe we could use a Web Service created on the Remedy side instead of the API. I have been looking at the documentation for creating a Web Service and that has led me to this posting. My first question is how is this possible without using the Mid-Tier? As I stated, this is new to me and I am not sure I fully understand it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Roger A.
