EAI involves integration with external application and it makes use of integration objects.

Integration objects are objects containing Meta data about Siebel objects, which allows external applications to communicate with Siebel. In order to understand Integration objects can make use of

  • XML Schema Definition (XSD) Files
  • Data Type Definition (DTD) Files
  • WSDL (Web Services Description Language) Files


WSDL files are used and generated only when we integrate with external application using web services.

But XSD and DTD files are required if we are making use of middleware or adapters to provide XML to external application. They can be generated inside Siebel by following the steps below.

  • Open Siebel Tools
  • Choose Integration Object from Object Explorer window
    (If you are not able to see it you might need to add it)
  • Query for your IO for which you want to generate XSD or DTD
  • Click on Generate Schema button shown in the image below
  • Generate Schema Button

You will see a wizard window.

  • Choose EAI XML XSD Generator or EAI XML DTD Generator depending on your needs.
  • Choose No Envelope if it is not a Siebel application but if you are integrating with another Siebel application then you can choose Siebel Message Envelope as you can then work on it EAI Siebel Adapter Business Service
  • Give the path where you want to save the file.

And you are done!!!!
