Synchronizing a Library
Item in a Subscribed Content Library
The items in a
subscribed library have features that are distinct from the items in a local
library. Synchronizing the content and the metadata of an item in a subscribed
library depends on the synchronization mechanism of the subscribed library.
Synchronization Type of the Subscribed
Library
| Description
|
|---|---|
Synchronized on demand
| If the subscribed library is synchronized on
demand, you can use the
sync method on the
SubscribedItem service
and pass as arguments the library item ID and
true . When you perform
the task, both the item metadata and the content are synchronized. To
synchronize only the metadata of the item, pass the library ID and
false as arguments to
the method.
|
Not synchronized on demand
| If the subscribed library is not
synchronized on demand, you can use the
sync method on the
SubscribedItem service
and pass as argument the item ID. In this case, the content of the item is
always synchronized and the Boolean value is ignored when the call is executed.
|
Synchronized automatically
| If the subscribed library is synchronized
automatically, you can also use the
sync method to force
the synchronization of an item. Method execution depends on whether the
subscribed library is synchronized on demand.
