Developing Sentinel Integrators

At this time the Sentinel API for Integrators is not published. If you need to integrate with a system for which a pre-existing Integrator is not yet available, you have two options:

  1. Create a standalone application which performs the desired integration with the target system
    • Invoke this external process with the "Execute a Command" action available in the Configure Action dialog
    • Configure the Action to pass the needed event information to the external command
  2. Create a Java library that gathers data from your event source and embed it in a JavaScript Action
    • Include your JAR files in the Integrator itself and use Rhino to call the Java methods
    • Refer to the Actions plug-in development section for details on including external JARs in Action plug-ins

Using one of these two methods will allow you to integrate with a wide variety of target systems.
