Advanced Connectors and Synchronous Task Manager

Good evening,

I'm evaluating the purchase of the annual subscription, but I'm not sure if CMDBuild allows to start custom logic (such as rest api invocation contained in the logic of advanced connectors) scheduled by the synchronous task manager. This because when trying to schedule a connector, the GUI only allows asynchronous scheduling (i.e. every day).

In addition, does synchronous scheduling only support an "AND" logic between the conditions on the attributes? If not, is there a way to specify a more complex logic on attributes of a class which trigger an event?

 

Thank you,

Raffaele

If
you refer to the schedule through the Task Manager (CMDBuild
Administration Module), you can only schedule the Wizard Connector
(simplified visual solution that can be used only in limited contexts).

But if you've written a more complex connector, you can schedule it via the Linux System Cron.
In the new version CMDBuild 3.0 it will also be possible to define "form triggers" in javascript language, which can execute REST calls to the server through which to implement custom logic that can be executed before or after each modification to each CMDB card.

Will this feature require the annual subscription or will it be included in the free license?

The new feature of the “form trigger” will be part of the “core” code of CMDBuild and will therefore also be usable with the AGPL license.

The subscription is still available for support, bug fixes, migration assistance on the new version, etc.
