Code That Configures Synchronization for a Custom Object

To configure synchronization for a custom object, you add the following code to the connector_configuration.xml file:

<type id="ChannelPartner">
  <view label="Channel Partner" label_plural="Channel Partners" 
small_icon="type_image:Account:16" normal_icon="type_image:Account:24" 
large_icon="type_image:Account:48">
  </view>
    <synchronizer name_format=":[:(Name):]">
  <links>
  </links>
  <natural_keys>
    <natural_key>
      <field>Name</field>
      <field>Location</field>
    </natural_key>
  </natural_keys>
  </synchronizer>
</type>

Note the following:

• The value in the type id tag must equal the value in the TypeId object in the meta_info.xml file.

• The natural_key tag includes the Name and Location fields as part of the user key.
