Customers can download the resource BOD zip file, unzip it, and import the WSDL file to the SoapUI editor to make edits and then run the application. **Prerequisites** - [Enable access to MuleSoft Direct Integrations](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.access_integrations.htm&type=5). - [Connect your Salesforce and MuleSoft instances](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.connect_to_mulesoft_instance.htm&type=5). - Install SoapUI. See [Installing SoapUI](https://www.soapui.org/getting-started/installing-soapui/) for details. **note:** We recommend using the SoapUI web application, as it defines the structure of the request body automatically. If you use another web application, you have to prepare a payload manually to call an API. Sample requests aren’t available with other web applications. ## 1. Discover Learn about the different types of STAR Integration apps in Automotive Cloud and when to use them. See [Overview of STAR Integrations](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/industries/automotive/guide/star-integrations.md). ## 2. Create a Connected App in Salesforce Create a connected app to set up the client credentials flow. See [Configure a Connected App for the OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.connected_app_client_credentials_setup.htm&type=5) for details. ## 3. Deploy the Application Deploy the automotive cloud applications from MuleSoft Direct to your MuleSoft instance. ## 4. Download the BOD File 1. Download the Business Object Document (BOD) zip folder. A BOD is a combination of the Application Area, Data Area, Verb, and Noun. | Resource Name |WSDL File| | :------------------------ |:--------| | Customer Information |[CustomerInformation.zip](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/misc/CustomerInformation.zip)| | Repair Order |[RepairOrder.zip](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/misc/RepairOrder.zip)| | Sales Lead |[SalesLead.zip](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/misc/SalesLead.zip)| | Vehicle Inventory |[VehicleInventory.zip](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/misc/VehicleInventory.zip)| | Vehicle Specifications |[VehicleSpecification.zip](https://resources.docs.salesforce.com/rel1/doc/en-us/static/misc/VehicleSpecification.zip)| 2. Unzip the downloaded BOD file to get the WSDL file and the dependent application. The folder also contains other BOD files and resource files that are required for WSDL import. For example, when you unzip the Customer Information.zip, you get CustomerInformation.wsdl, which you must import into SoapUI. The other artifacts that Customer Information.zip contains are BODs, Resources, and STARWSDLDataTypes4.xsd. ## 5. Import the WSDL File 1. In SoapUI, click **SOAP**. 2. In the **New SOAP Project** dialog, specify a project name. 3. Browse your local folder to add the path to the WSDL file or service in the **Initial WSDL** field. 4. Leave the default settings and click **OK**. SoapUI loads the specified WSDL and parses its contents to show the service operations in the navigator tree. ## 6. Manage Authorizations 1. Add the authorization headers. 1. In the SoapUI editor, click the **Auth** tab. 2. From the Authorization dropdown, select **Add New Authorization** and then select **Basic**. 3. Click **OK**. 2. Configure authorization. 1. Specify the username and password that must be used for the standard basic authorization. The username is the _Client ID_, and the password is the _Client Secret_ created as part of the prerequisites. ## 7. Send the Request Modify the request XML payload and send the request. In SoapUI editor, the service operations are shown as nodes under the WSDL Service node in the project navigator. By default, SoapUI also creates a sample request (Request 1) for each operation when importing WSDL. 1. Double-click to open the service request for an operation and edit the parameters per the requirements. For field-mapping details, see [Resource Mappings](/docs/industries/automotive/guide/resource-mappings.html). 2. Edit request URL. Replace the URL placeholder with the host or domain of the MuleSoft application. You can also copy the URL directly from the MuleSoft Direct user interface. Automotive Cloud Integrations API uses the following format: `/star/
