Defining Collaboration Event Types
Important: This feature is available only if Distributed Content Collaboration is enabled for your account.
Collaboration events provide the connection between a Collaboration Process and Program. For example, a program generates a list of enactments and is listening for a Collaboration Event at the Event Switch. After the content in the collaboration process is published, the Collaboration event is raised, and Program releases the enactments.
Note: Only an Account Administrator can create or delete collaboration events.
To define a collaboration event:
- From the side navigation bar, select
Account .
(If you do not see the side navigation bar, click the 
icon.)
- Select Collaboration settings, and then select Collaboration event types. (Not seeing this choice? Refer to the Account management changes topic.)
- From the Define Collaboration Event Types page, click Add New Type.
A blank row is added at the bottom of the event list.
- Enter custom event type name and a description.
- Click Save.
To edit a collaboration event:
- Click edit.
To delete a collaboration event:
Warning: Deleting a collaboration event will cause programs listening for that event to fail.
- Click delete.
If you accidentally delete a collaboration event, you can recover it as follows:
- Create a new collaboration event.
- Edit any affected programs to select the new event.
