Event-triggered synchronizations enable you to preset the execution of specific synchronization jobs based on the occurrence of specific events in the provider application. For example, you can set up the execution of a synchronization job in Unifier whenever project ID 2547 is updated in P6.
Note: You can also design an event listener for your provider application and specify events. For more details, refer to the Provider Development Guide.
Prerequisites
- For Gateway on-premises installations, configure <0P_ProdName_Gateway_Short Weblogic domain for event notifications.
- Specify the event listener for the provider application when you add an application deployment connection.
Procedure
To set up event-triggered synchronizations:
- In the sidebar, select Synchronizations.
- Select a synchronization job, select theActions menu and then select Run on Event.
- In the Add Listener wizard, select the event listener from the drop-down for the synchronization job.
- Select Save.
- The synchronization job is now set to run for the event coded in the event listener.
Tips
- You can also edit a existing event synchronization and select Save in any step to exit the wizard.
