The WSDL that is available via the Web Console for a EDC decision service will not contain primary key attributes if the rulesheet does not use the primary key attribute.

It is understandable that a decision service level WSDL [ which the Web Console WSDL is ] will not contain attributes that are not used in the rules for a non EDC decision service, however this is not true for an EDC decision service.

If the decision service is an EDC enabled service , this implies that no entity can exist without its proper identity. Otherwise it is not possible to identify an identity in an input request. So, the WSDL should support the possible request. Attributes that play no role can be left out in the WSDL as they would not have any effect anyway. But this is not the case for attributes that determine the identity.

 

For example: The decision service below uses EDC, it uses entity identity where attribute CDMID is the primary key. In the flow and underlying rulesheets the attribute CDMID is not used anywhere. But with tests only the CDMID is passed and that allows to retrieve all info. But the WSDL generated from the Web Console does not contain the attribute CDMID in its definition.
