Synchronize Robot on Object Edit...

Is there a way to detect that a CR was edited or that a CN has been attached to the CR within a workflow?  Is there a specific event for this that can be used in the Synchronize Robot?  I already use the robot for detecting state changes in this and child/parent objects.  Side note:  is there a definitive list of OOTB object events and their descriptions?  Tired of trying to guess the correct search words...

@RFS The short answer is yes, on this list. A description would probably require digging into Javadocs but even then I use the name of the event as a starting point and test it to see when it is actually fired.

 

The last time I generated the list was in 11.2 and there were 458 OOTB events.

 

That said, there is no event specific to adding or modifying a Change Request on a Change Notice.

 

That said, triggering something to happen in a workflow when a Change Request (or a Change Task) is added to a Change Notice is no problem.

 

What do you want to have happen when the Change Request is added or modified? Just curious.

Hi @RFS 

First I've never found a documentation that describes all events.

but you can start with Policy Administration in Notification Rules section.

In new rule you can find a list of existing rules and this is good start point.

Great idea @HelesicPetr. It should be easy to test using this also. Since change objects are not iterated, I would see if Modify would thrown an event that the sync robot would catch. If you allow revise on change objects, there is New Version too. You will also need to have some code to see if its the right modification you are looking for. There could be modifications that you want to ignore so expect to catch too much but then filter then down to the one you are looking for. This is not unlike state changes where once you detect one, you check if its the droids you were looking for.
