After you have installed the Application Integration Framework (AIF) Web services on the application integration gateway server, you must create a Web site for use by AIF. This Web site points to the shared content directory that was created when you installed the Web services. This directory is where all the generated service artifacts will be copied for external use when you configure Web services.
For more information about installing an application integration server, see "Install AIF Web services" in the Microsoft Dynamics AX Installation Guide.

Add a Web site for use by AIF
After installing AIF Web services, you must add a Web site. Adding a Web site specifies to the Application Object Server (AOS) the content directory where the Web services are stored. This directory links Microsoft Dynamics AX with the Web services configuration that is created when you install AIF Web services.
