The IBM® FileNet® P8 Platform includes web services for both Content Engine and Process Engine. Both web services are compliant with WS-I Basic Profile 1.0 and WS-Security. Using these web services, you can access most of the same functionality that the Content Engine APIs provide, including all objects and most properties and methods. In addition, you can create and launch workflows as well as perform queue, step, and roster operations. Process Engine also provides process orchestration functionality based on Web Services and workflow standards (BPEL4WS), which you can call from an external client.
