Introduction

A synchronization action class is a Java class that implements some specific actions to be performed before and after synchronization.

Implementation

A synchronization action class is a Java implementation of the SyncActions interface.

If a Synchronization Actions Class has been specified for a certain Synchronization Task, SyncActions's implemented methods will be executed during synchronization:

• beforeAll(...) will be executed before to start synchronization;
• beforeCreate(...) will be executed before each local create of a new user retrieved during synchronization;
• beforeUpdate(...) will be executed before each local update of an existing user retrieved during synchronization;
• beforeDelete(...) will be executed before each local delete of a user removed from synchronized external resource;
• after(...) will be executed after each single user synchronization;
• afterAll(...) will be executed after synchronization process completion.

Deploy

A synchronization actions class can be deployed:

• at project definition time
  • by adding own implementation into the overlay project, before to build Syncope.
• at run-time
  • by adding into the container classpath own implementation (container needs to be re-started).
