# Set up validation rule of type Web service

Use validation rules to check if the data is in line with the defined standards.

To validate data, you can use several validation types. This topic explains how to set up the **Web service validation** type.

Use a web service validation to validate if a field value matches a value in another internal or external source, using a web service.

Before you can set up a web service validation rule, set up the web service to be used.

For each validation rule, you can set up:

- A validation message that is shown if the validation rule is not met.
- Conditions to define the data to which the rule applies.
