Notifications

The Notification task allows you to defined specific attributes you wish to monitor. If a modification (not a creation), happens to the selected attribute, a notification via email can be send.

Notifications also allows to monitor supann resource. The supan resource targeted is configurable and a notification will be sent when the supann resource is entering that specific state.

Note

It must be used with FusionDirectory Orchestrator.

Task Setup

Creating the Task

  • Open the Tasks section in FusionDirectory.

  • Define the task’s schedule and repetition interval.

    Life cycle - Task creation step 1

Configuring Task Notifications

Navigate to the Tasks Notifications tab. Select the attributes to monitor.

Warning

The list of attributes must be configured via the FusionDirectory configuration menu under the Notifications tab before use.

Choose the email template to use.

  • The template must be pre-created.

  • Specify the sender of the notifications.

Assign the relevant monitored members.

  • These members will be analyzed against the defined attributes in audit logs for any modifications since the last execution of the task.

Specify the recipients who will receive the notifications.
(Optional) Enable monitoring of a Supann resource.

  • This allows notifications to be sent when a member reaches a specific Supann state.

  • You can choose to monitor both attributes and Supann resources or only one of them.

Note

You can select either a static group or a dynamic group for greater flexibility.

Life cycle - Task creation step 2

Task Execution

For your configured task to be executed, you need to configure your fusiondirectory-orchestrator-client

See Notifications Task Execution. for more information.

Important

Notifications relies on the last executable date. When running the task for the first time, no previous executable date exists. As a protective measure, you must execute the task manually once to create an initial “last execute” timestamp. This timestamp will serve as the basis for triggering notifications in subsequent executions.

Summary

Once configured as described, the Task Notification will:

  • Analyze the monitored attributes hourly.

  • Analyze the monitored Supann states hourly.

  • Send an email notification based on the predefined settings.
