Overview

The syntax used for the openidm.action function changed between 2.x and 3.x. The following section describes the function in OpenIDM 3.x.

For OpenIDM 4.x and later, you should refer to the documentation: Integrator's Guide › openidm.action(resource, actionName, content, params, fields).

Invoking a reconciliation using the openidm.action function

The method signature for this function is:

openidm.action(1,2,3,4)

where:

  1. resource path (string)
  2. action name (string)
  3. request content (full complex object support)
  4. request parameters (flat map of strings)

This maps to REST calls via http as follows:

POST /openidm/resourcePath?_action=actionName&requestParameter1=val1&requestParameter2=val2 { "requesContent1": "val1" }

Example

If your request to trigger reconciliation from http is:

POST /openidm/recon?_action=recon&mapping=myMappingName

then your call to openidm.action would look like this:

openidm.action("recon", "recon", null, { "mapping": "myMappingName" })
