Notify Operations

In addition to the Operations provided with , connectors can provide operations that extend functionality into Script. These connector operations can be called just like any other Script operation, except for two details:
  1. They must be called through the connector.rsc endpoint.
  2. They must include an auth token.
For example, calling a connector operation using both of these rules might look something like this:
<arc:set attr="in.myInput" value="myvalue" />
<arc:call op="connector.rsc/opName" authtoken="admin:1j9P8v8b9K0x6g5R5t7k" in="in" out="out">
  <!-- handle output from the op here -->
</arc:call>
