Dreamforce mention of Wizdl

What is it, why would I need it as a beginning developer, where do I get it for Salesforce instances?

 

Thanks.

Hey

 

A WSDL is a XML file that defines the structure and endpoint for webservice method calls. You need this file if you are going to access the Salesforce schema, metadata, and data from outside of salesforce e.g. using another platform like Java.

 

You can find the WSDLs under Setup > Developer > API. There are tool for most platforms that will automatically generate the code you need (from the WSDL) to communicate with salesforce through their API.
