The ForkJoin Workflow Element aggregates the data from various sources at real time.
The ForkJoin Workflow Element aggregates the data from two sources at real time. It solves the problem of split-profiles, where the user data is split across two repositories. The ForkJoin Workflow Element can have one primary participant and one secondary participant, each of which is a WorkFlow Element of any type. The ForkJoin Workflow Element allows the user to search (search filter) against the primary participant, the secondary participant, or both primary and secondary participant whereas the Join workflow element allows the user to search (search filter) against the primary participant only.
The ForkJoin Workflow Element component inherits from the Workflow Element
The following components have a direct COMPOSITION relation FROM ForkJoin Workflow Elements :
A description of each property follows.
| Basic Properties: | Advanced Properties: |
|---|---|
| ↓ cache-size | ↓ java-class |
| ↓ dn-attribute | ↓ password-attribute |
| ↓ enabled | ↓ save-password-on-successful-bind |
| ↓ join-suffix | |
| ↓ populate-joinedentrydn | |
| ↓ primary-and-secondary-attributes | |
| ↓ secondary-only-attributes |
| Description | The maximum number of entries that can be stored in the cache used to filter out entry duplicates. When the entry duplicates filtering is active, the ForkJoinflowElement stores the returned entry DNs in a cache. A cache is specific to a search operation, and when the cache is full, the search operation is aborted. By default, the cache can handle 10 000 DNs. When the cache size is set to 0 or is negative, then no limit is enforced. |
|---|---|
| Default Value | 10000 |
| Allowed Values | An integer value. Lower value is 0. |
| Multi-valued | No |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None |
| Advanced Property | No |

| Admin Action Required | None |
| Advanced Property | No |
| Read-only | No |
primary-and-secondary-attributes
| Description | A list of attributes that are present in both the primary and secondary participants and which the application can use in the search filter. The attributes identified by the PrimaryAndSecondaryAttributes configuration parameter cannot also be identified by the SecondaryOnlyAttributes configuration parameter. |
|---|---|
| Default Value | |
| Allowed Values | A String |
| Multi-valued | Yes |
| Required | No |
| Admin Action Required | None |
| Advanced Property | No |
| Read-only | No |
| Description | A list of attributes that are present only in the secondary participant and which the application can use in the search filter. The attributes identified by the SecondaryOnlyAttributes configuration parameter cannot also be identified by the PrimaryAndSecondaryAttributes configuration parameter. |
|---|---|
| Default Value | By default, the SecondaryOnlyAttributes attribute list is empty, which means that participant is not responsible for handling any attributes that are present in search filter. When it is empty for all the paritipcants, then all search attributes are considered to be in primary participant. |
| Allowed Values | A String |
