Siebel Dedicated Client Auto Start and Start-Up Options and Spool Generation

The application shortcuts run an executable program called siebel.exe, followed by various start-up options.

If you want to create shortcut for Siebel Dedicated Client right click on desktop and from "New" select "Shortcut" and provide below (modify Siebel exe path and configuration file path accordingly):
D:\siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\BIN\siebel.exe /c D:\Siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\bin\enu\publicsector.cfg /b "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

If you want to set default user, password and data source add blow in shortcut's property Target field. When you run short cut Siebel will not ask for Credentials and Data source.
/u SADMIN /p SADMIN /d ServerDataSrc

Resulting string will look like below:
D:\siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\BIN\siebel.exe /c D:\Siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\bin\enu\publicsector.cfg /b "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" /u SADMIN /p SADMIN /d ServerDataSrc

For creating spool of dedicated client add below in shortcut's property Target field.
D:\siebel\logs\spool_dc.txt

Resulting string will look like below:
D:\siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\BIN\siebel.exe /c D:\Siebel\8.2.2.0.0\Client_1\bin\enu\publicsector.cfg /b "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" /u SADMIN /p SADMIN /d ServerDataSrc D:\siebel\logs\spool_dc.txt

Siebel Client Start-Up Options

/c config_file
Required. Specifies the path and file name for the configuration file to use, such as siebel.cfg for Siebel Sales or uagent.cfg for Siebel Call Center.

/d data_source
Specifies the data source to connect to, as defined in the configuration file. The Demo shortcuts specify "/d sample" to access the Sample Database.
->If you do not use /u and /p to specify a valid Siebel user, and do not use /d to specify a valid data source, then you can specify the data source from the login screen.
->If you use /u and /p but do not use /d, then the local database is assumed.

/l language
Specifies the three-letter code for the language to use for this client session, such as ENU for U.S. English. The applicable Language Pack must have been installed for the client. If you do not use /l to specify a valid language, the language is obtained from the configuration file.

/u username
Specifies the user name. The Demo shortcuts specify predefined demo users using /u and /p options.
->If you do not use /u and /p to specify a valid Siebel user, you must log in from a login screen.
CAUTION: Security issues must be considered in using /u and /p options (in particular /p) to access a live production system. These values are not encrypted.

/p password
Specifies the password for the user specified using /u.

/ctisim
Runs the Communications Simulator. Use this option with predefined Demo shortcuts that specify it, such as Siebel Call Center Demo. For more information, see Siebel Communications Server Administration Guide.

/b browser_exe
Specifies the path and file name for the browser executable program to use for the Siebel client session.
The /b option is needed only if a browser that is not supported for the Siebel application is currently the default browser. For example, if you are running a high-interactivity application, such as Siebel Call Center, you must use a supported version of Microsoft Internet Explorer. If this browser is not the default browser, use /b to specify the browser explicitly.

/s spool_file
Specifies spooling SQL to a specified output file. This option may be useful for troubleshooting purposes.

How to create and publish Inbound Web Service in Siebel based on Workflow

Inbound Web Services: The Inbound Web Service allows an external system to call a Siebel published Web Service. You can publish a business service or a business process as a Web Service and generate a Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) file that an external system can import. The Inbound Web Services can only be published from Siebel C using SOAP-RPC binding. Source: Oracle Docs What Is The Difference Between Web Services and APIs? An API is an interface that allows you to build on the data and functionality of another application, while a web service is a network-based resource that fulfills a specific task. Yes, there’s overlap between the two: all web services are APIs, but not all APIs are web services. Both web services and APIs are — at their core — very useful and very much used today. However, it’s the web services associated with SOAP and/or Service Oriented Architecture which are falling out of favor. Source: NordicApis Process: Prepare the workflow which will serve as Si...
