How to Add Adapter Metadata to a BizTalk Project
The Add Adapter Metadata Wizard enables you to add adapter metadata to a BizTalk project. This data includes schemas, message types, and port types needed to communicate with an adapter from an orchestration. Use the Add Adapter Metadata Wizard with application adapters, such as FTP, to pull schemas corresponding to these application adapters into the system. Note that transport adapters such as HTTP do not typically use schemas.
