Well, deprecation of it should be seen as my opinion, and I'm not holding any position within IBM.
Speaking about IID slowness, I do not know how to help you. You can try check it the integration designer workspace log files,maybe something suspicious you can notice. If not, them the would say you need to ask help from IBM.

IBM will deprecate it? Bad news...
After turning off the firewall on the BAW server, IID is much faster. But now we get this error message when we want to open a process app in workspace:
"The Workflow Center did not give informations from process applications or toolkits. Maybe there is a communication error or you don't have appropriate rights." (translated from the Hungarian locale).
I use the DEAdmin who have all rights to access everything.
The Process Center version is 8.6.1.19003 (this is at the end of the URL), The Integration Designer version is 19.0.0.2, Build ID is 20190624-125513.0.linux (don't understand this .linux suffix, because it runs on Windows...)
Any ideas?

Practically nothing changed from 8.5.6. You install IID using installation manager,also install local BAW server on your machine, then launch IID, provide workflow center url and open some toolkit with AIS in your workspace.
Keep in mind that future of IID is very uncertain. IID and AIS are very likely to be deprecated in upcoming releases and I'm sure it will never be added to BAW on containers.

Hi Valentinas,
Thanks for your fast answer! It seems that we should use the Integration Designer, http protocol is unfortunately no option. :(
I installed the IID (v18 and the upgrade to v19), but it seems very very slow. As I remember (I used it 4 years ago with BPM 8.5.6) it was much faster. ~2 minutes to connect to the Process Center after starting IID, and it has problem with encrypting the master user or something like that; ~2 minutes while I get the "Getting informations from the Workflow Center server" info window after clicking on Open in Workspace of a simple, small process application, and after 25 minutes I gave it up. Is there any solution to speed it up? Why can't it open the editor, just getting the informations endlessly?
thx,

I think the best would be to implement it as an Advanced Integrated Service in IID, unless you are using BAW on containers, or you have a decision not to use Advanced Integration Services.
If you do not have an option to use AIS, then the only reasonable option would be to expose REST/SOAP through HTTP facade for these kind of integrations.

Hi All,
One of our clients has a policy which say that all the webservices should be called through MQ, but BAW asks for WSDL URL, and we can set the endpoint URL an port optionally. No MQ connection data is asked.
Is there any solution to connect a BAW application to a webservice which is available only through MQ?
thx,
