Represents a request to execute an event action when an event is triggered on a target Content Engine object. For example, you can have a subscription that notifies you by email when documents of a certain class are created and saved in the object store. The specified EventAction and Subscribable objects, which represent the event action and target object, must exist before you can create a Subscription object and persist it.

Subscription is the base class for subclasses defined with specialized behavior. You can create objects for the subclasses, but you cannot create a base Subscription object. You can, however, instantiate one in the following ways:

  • By calling the GetInstance or FetchInstance method on the Factory.Subscription class.
  • By getting the Subscriptions property on an ObjectStore object or an EventAction object, then iterating the SubscriptionSet collection.
  • By getting the WorkflowSourceSubscriptions property on a WorkflowDefinition object, then iterating the SubscriptionSet collection.
