testing in 11.6. with Icontrol REST

  1. First you need to create your xml profile attached to your existing policy with a POST on your policy entity and xml-profile definition,ex :

     {
"defenseAttributes": {
    "maximumAttributesPerElement": 16,
    "maximumAttributeValueLength": 1024,
    "maximumDocumentDepth": 32,
    "allowCDATA": false,
    "maximumChildrenPerElement": 1024,
    "maximumDocumentSize": 1024000,
    "tolerateNumericNames": false,
    "maximumElements": 65536,
    "tolerateLeadingWhiteSpace": false,
    "tolerateCloseTagShorthand": false,
    "allowDTDs": false,
    "maximumNameLength": 256,
    "allowExternalReferences": false,
    "maximumNSDeclarations": 64,
    "allowProcessingInstructions": false,
    "maximumNamespaceLength": 256
},
"attachmentsInSoapMessages": true,
"sensitiveData": [],
"useXmlResponsePage": true,
"inspectSoapAttachments": false,
"metacharElementCheck": true,
"metacharAttributeCheck": false,
"name": "soap_upload2",

"isReferenced": true,
"validationSoapActionHeader": true,
"description": "",

"attackSignaturesCheck": true,
"signatureOverrides": [],
"metacharOverrides": []
   }

  2. then you upload your xml-validation-files

  3. then you add your validation file (wsdl) with a task : /mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/associate-xml-validation-files-to-xml-profile

this is documented in Rest user guide 11.6.
