Events
Certain operations in NIM act as trigger events. Configure Event actions to run in response to them.
There are currently four types of trigger events:
Mapping events
Individual mapping functions in Mappings are trigger events for event actions of type mapping
. This includes mapping functions which are executed as part of Jobs.
Job events
Jobs are trigger events for event actions of type job
.
Notice
Job events are not yet supported.
Sync evaluation events
Stage 2: Evaluate of Sync tasks is a trigger event for event actions of type sync evaluation
.
Also see Sync execution events.
Important
Unlike mapping
, job
, and sync
event actions, you don't configure sync evaluation
event actions in Events > Actions. Creating a standalone sync evaluation
event action does nothing. Instead, you must configure this type of event action by enabling the evaluate stage of Sync tasks and selecting a notification template in the Send Evaluation Report Using Template dropdown. See Create a sync task.
Sync execution events
Stage 3: Execute of Sync tasks is a trigger event for event actions of type sync
.
Sync evaluation events and sync execution events complement each other. Use sync evaluation events to send preview reports; use sync execution events to see the actual results of the jobs included in the execute stage.
