Invocation inquiries invoke a web service. For example, the bindingTemplate element stores service information, such as an entry-point address for accessing the service. The calling application uses the service information to contact the web service. Another example is the get_bindingDetail function call, which returns the bindingTemplate structure that matches the specified bindingKey values.

The code example illustrates the use of the get_bindingDetail API call. The get_bindingDetail API call returns the bindingTemplate information that maps to the bindingKey value.
