When uploading/importing a WADL to G-Reg, it automatically downloads the schema files used in WADL and adds them to G-Reg and sets them as dependencies of the WADL file.AlsoG-Reg creates a service for the WADL where the WADL is used by that service. See how the Associations and Dependencies are automatically generated in the following figure.
