Method Details

refresh

public abstract void refresh()
                      throws org.odpi.openmetadata.frameworks.connectors.ffdc.ConnectorCheckedException

Requests that the connector does a comparison of the metadata in the third party technology and open metadata repositories. Refresh is called when the integration connector first starts and then at intervals defined in the connector's configuration as well as any external REST API calls to explicitly refresh the connector.

Throws:

org.odpi.openmetadata.frameworks.connectors.ffdc.ConnectorCheckedException - there is a problem with the connector. It is not able to refresh the metadata.
