# WSS Module XML and Maven Support

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

If you manually code a Mule application in XML either from the Studio XML editor or a text editor,
you must perform the following actions to get access to a connector:

Add the namespace for the connector to your XML flow.

Add dependency information to your Maven `pom.xml` file.

In the Studio visual editor, when you drag a connector from the Mule Palette to the canvas, Studio
automatically populates the XML code with the connector namespace and schema location.

## Add a Namespace for the Connector

If you manually code the Mule application in the Studio XML editor or another text editor, paste the
following code inside the <mule> tag in your XML configuration:

```xml
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/wss
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/wss/current/mule-wss.xsd
```

This example shows how the namespace statements are placed in the `mule` XML block:

```xml
<mule
	xmlns:wss="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/wss"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/wss
	http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/wss/current/mule-wss.xsd">

</mule>
```

## Add a POM File Dependency

The `pom.xml` Apache Maven file generated by Anypoint Studio contains dependencies for a Mule app.
When you code a Mule app manually, include this XML snippet in your POM file to enable access to
this connector:

```xml
<dependency>
        <groupId>org.mule.modules</groupId>
        <artifactId>mule-wss-module</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.1</version>
        <classifier>mule-plugin</classifier>
    </dependency>
```

To obtain the most up-to-date pom.xml file information:

1.  Go to [Anypoint Exchange](https://www.mulesoft.com/exchange/).

2.  In Exchange, click **Login** and supply your Anypoint Platform username and password.

3.  In Exchange, search for `WSS Module`.

4.  Select the connector.

5.  Click **Dependency Snippets** near the upper right of the screen.

## Next Step

After completing your namespace and `pom.xml` file, you can try the [Examples](https://docs.mulesoft.com/wss-module/1.1/wss-examples).
