<h1 class="topictitle1">Creating an import statement</h1>
<div><p>The import statement is used to import other WSDL documents or
XML schemas into your WSDL document. This enables you to have more modular
WSDL documents. The use of the <strong>import</strong> statement allows the separation
of the different elements of a service definition into independent documents,
which can then be imported as needed. This technique helps in writing clearer
service definitions, by separating the definitions according to their level
of abstraction.</p>
<div class="section"><p>To create an import statement, follow these steps:</p>
</div>
<ol>
<li><span>In the Graph view, right-click the <strong>Imports</strong> group and click
<strong>Add Child &gt; Import.</strong></span></li>
<li><span>Select your new import statement.</span></li>
<li><span>Specify the <strong>namespace</strong> of the document you wish to import,
then specify the <strong>location</strong> of the document you wish to import.</span>
</li>
</ol>
<div class="section">Once you specify the location of the document you wish to import,
the import object's label changes to reflect the specified location. Imported
WSDL components may now be visible within the editor.</div>
