To receive email messages for governance events and to
approve information governance rules for publication, register the
sample process applications with specific event types.
About this task
Before you can use applications in subscriptions to governance
events, you must use the istool event registerCallback command
to register the applications.
InfoSphere® Information Governance Catalog provides
the following sample process applications that work with governance
event types and use
IBM® Business Process Manager:
- Governance Rule Approval
- Use this application to manage approval of information governance
rules in IBM Stewardship Center.
The application sends email to selected users when information governance
rules are set to the Pending Approval status. It creates tasks for
approval actions in IBM Stewardship Center.
- Email Notification
- Use this application to send email to selected users when governance
assets are created, modified, or subject to a workflow action. You
must register the application separately for each event type that
you want to receive notification about.
For details about the sample process applications,
see Applications for governance events.
For
details about the types of governance events, see Governance event types and their properties.
Procedure
- Register the IGC_BUSINESSRULE_EVENT event type with the
Governance Rule Approval sample process application by using the event
registerCallback command:
event registerCallback
authentication parameters
generic parameters
-eventTypeName IGC_BUSINESSRULE_EVENT
-callbackType HTTP_POST
-callbackName "Governance Rule Approval"
-callbackService "https://BPM_Server:SSL_Port/rest/bpm/wle/v1
/service/IIGC@StartRuleApproval?action=start"
-callbackDescription "This application sends email to selected users when the
governance event type IGC_BUSINESSRULE_EVENT occurs for a SEND_FOR_APPROVAL action.
You can use the application to track approval of information governance rules."
Authentication parameters specify
the IBM InfoSphere Information Server services
tier to connect to. For details, see Table 2 in Commands and common parameters for
istool.
Generic parameters are parameters
that can be used in any istool command. For details, see Table 3 in Commands and common parameters for
istool.
BPM_Server:SSL_Port specifies
the server and port where IBM BPM is
installed.
- Register the IGC_BUSINESSTERM_EVENT event type with the
Email Notification sample application by using the event
registerCallback command:
event registerCallback
authentication parameters
generic parameters
-eventTypeName IGC_BUSINESSTERM_EVENT
-callbackType HTTP_POST
-callbackName "Email Notification"
-callbackService "https://BPM_Server:SSL_Port/rest/bpm/
wle/v1/service/IIGC@StartEMail?action=start"
-callbackDescription "This application sends email to selected users when any
governance event type except IGC_GLOSSARY_IMPORT_EVENT occurs. The application
is invoked for all action types except deletion of an asset."
- Repeat step 2 to register the Email Notification sample
process application for each event type that you want to receive notifications
about. Change the value of -eventTypeName for
each command. You can script the commands.
What to do next
After you register an application for an event type,
create a subscription in
the
Subscription Manager that links the event type to the
process. When actions occur in
InfoSphere Information Governance Catalog that
generate governance events of the type that you subscribe to, the
events are processed by the sample applications.
