How to register a newly created object type in Jive

charyorde Nov 12, 2013 6:58 AM

I have successfully created a new object type. But unfortunately in the database table (jiveid), I can find it there.

Below are things I've done for this newly created object type;

Created the following files:

TrendingVideosRecentActivityInfoProvider and TrendingVideosObjectType are registered in spring.xml

Hence, my question is, how do I register this newly created object type in Jive.

Thanks for helping out.

  In your plugin class, you have to register the new type in the ObjectTypeManager. To do this,
  Have Spring inject the instance of ObjectTypeManager and the instance of your ContentType (i.e. TrendingVideosObjectType).
  In your initPlugin method, call: objectTypeManager.register(trendingVideosObjectType);
  
  Hope that works for you - this is the step I always forget.

    Thanks. That was super helpful. Also I'm meant to look at jiveobjecttype table instead.
