This chapter provides an overview of Subscriptions API and describes the use cases using this API.
This chapter contains the following sections:
The subscriptions API provides a mechanism for users to manage the assets to which a user is subscribed. Subscription, in this context, refers specifically to email subscriptions. Subscriptions created through this API are the equivalent of users clicking the Subscribe button on the asset detail page. Once a user subscribes to an asset, they are notified through email of events occurring on the asset. For a list of events for which subscribed users are notified, see the "Email Templates" section in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle Enterprise Repository.
Using the subscriptions API of REX, developers can create, delete, and inspect subscriptions to lists of assets. The operations are always performed for the user identified in the authentication token passed as an argument to the various subscription methods.
This section describes the use cases using the Subscriptions API. It contains the following topics:
Description
Authenticate with REX.
Read a list of asset summaries through a query.
Subscribe to the matched assets.
Sample code is as follows:
package com.flashline.sample.subscriptionapi; import java.net.MalformedURLException; import java.net.URL; import java.rmi.RemoteException; import javax.xml.rpc.ServiceException; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.base.OpenAPIException; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.entity.AssetSummary; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.entity.AuthToken; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.query.AssetCriteria; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.service.v300.FlashlineRegistry; import com.flashline.registry.openapi.service.v300.FlashlineRegistryServiceLocator; public class CreateSubscription { public static void main(String pArgs[]) throws OpenAPIException, RemoteException, ServiceException { try { // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Connect to Oracle Enterprise Repository // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// URL lURL = null; lURL = new URL(pArgs[0]); FlashlineRegistry repository = new FlashlineRegistryServiceLocator() .getFlashlineRegistry(lURL); // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Login to OER // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// AuthToken authToken = repository.authTokenCreate(pArgs[1], pArgs[2]); // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // find the assets to which to subscribe // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// AssetCriteria criteria = new AssetCriteria(); criteria.setNameCriteria("%"); AssetSummary[] lAssetSummaries = repository.assetQuerySummary(authToken, criteria); // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Iterate through assets, pulling out the ids and adding // to the array of longs // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// long[] lAssetIDs = new long[lAssetSummaries.length]; for (int i = 0; i < lAssetSummaries.length; i++) { lAssetIDs[i] = lAssetSummaries[i].getID(); } // ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Create the subscriptions.

Description
Authenticate with REX.
Read a list of asset summaries through a query.
Delete any subscriptions that may exist for the matched assets.
Sample Code as follows:
