If you are asking about the XMetaL Connector SDK, the code to run a “connector” based on it is only inculded in XMetaL Author Enterprise. It is not included with other products (XMAX or XMetaL Author Essential).

XMetaL Connector does not require any web services nor does it communicate using any. If the CMS you are connecting to happens to use web services then they may be involved but only for that particular CMS.

If you need to have XMAX communicate with a CMS system, database, or other form of storage you will need write the code to do that using our standard APIs as documented in the Programmer's Guide. There are APIs that let you save files to disk, open documents from disk, or create new documents from a string. You can also obtain the XML as a string.
