In general, WS-Policy is used for configuring WS-Security, WS-Reliable Messaging, caching, and throttling. WS-Policy Attachment attachment specification defines a set of policy subjects that can be used , when the user wants to attach or apply security policies. WSO2 Carbon based products have the power capability of Axis2 to apply WS-Policy for your to services at different levels such as service, service operation, service operation message, binding, binding operation, binding operation message, etc.
The WS-Policy configuration functionality is provided by the Service Management feature of the WSO2 feature repository.

Defining policies at bindings
Policies can be applied at the binding hierarchy , at in three different policy subjects such as:
...
A policy to SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 bindings at Binding binding level can be defined in the services.xml by adding the following code (see also The WS-Policy Editor below).
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
<wsp:PolicyAttachment xmlns:wsp="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy">
<wsp:AppliesTo>
<policy-subject identifier="binding:soap11" />
<policy-subject identifier="binding:soap12" />
</wsp:AppliesTo>
<wsp:Policy wsu:Id="binding_level_policy" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
</wsp:Policy>
</wsp:PolicyAttachment>

For the Binding Operation level, the <wsp:AppliesTo> element is used to define the scope of the policy. The An XML snippet is as follows:
...
The configuration is similar for the Binding Message level for the out message. The identifier attribute of the <policy-subject/> element in <wsp:AppliesTo> changes to binding:soap11/operation:echo/out. The XML snippet is as follows:
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|

<wsp:PolicyAttachment xmlns:wsp="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy">
<wsp:AppliesTo>
<policy-subject identifier="binding:soap11/operation:secureEcho/in" />
<policy-subject identifier="binding:soap12/operation:secureEcho/in" />
</wsp:AppliesTo>
<wsp:Policy wsu:Id="binding_level_policy" xmlns:wsu="http://docs.oasis-open.org/wss/2004/01/oasis-200401-wss-wssecurity-utility-1.0.xsd">
</wsp:Policy>

editor
The WS-Policy Editor allows to edit WS-Policy documents using either a graphical editor or a plain text editor. Given a Service or a Module, it will generate a graphical tree view (the "Policy" tree) representing the document along with the plain text (Raw Policy) representation. The default view presented is the source view or the raw policy.
...
- Right-click on any node in the "Policy" tree - A shortcut menu appears. You can add new elements and delete existing ones. The plain text representation will be kept in sync with the changes done using the "Policy" tree, and vise versa.
- Selecting an element in the "Policy" tree - Allows to edit the attributes of that policy element. Similarly, when adding an element, you will be prompted to add data to the attributes relevant to that particular element.
- Save Policy - Once you have finished editing your policy document, click "Save Policy."
- Go Back - Click "Go Back" to go back to the previous page.
