REST API - sync

The subscribed_item service manages the unique features of library items that are members of a subscribed library.

sync

POST /com/vmware/content/library/subscribed-item/id:{library_item_id}?~action=sync

POST /com/vmware/content/library/subscribed-item?~action=sync

Forces the synchronization of an individual library item in a subscribed library.

Synchronizing an individual item will update that item's metadata from the remote source. If the source library item on the remote library has been deleted, this operation will delete the library item from the subscribed library as well.

The default behavior of the synchronization is determined by the com.vmware.content.library.subscription_info of the library which owns the library item.

If com.vmware.content.library.subscription_info.on_demand is true, then the file content is not synchronized by default. In this case, only the library item metadata is synchronized. The file content may still be forcefully synchronized by passing true for the force_sync_content parameter.
If com.vmware.content.library.subscription_info.on_demand is false, then this call will always synchronize the file content. The force_sync_content parameter is ignored when the subscription is not on-demand.

When the file content has been synchronized, the com.vmware.content.library.item_model.cached field will be true.

This operation will return immediately and create an asynchronous task to perform the synchronization.
