What happend with stored procedure post_sync in IAM?

Question

Until 2018.3 there was the post_sync procedure, which could be used to execute some statements after the synchronization process.

The main reason why I am asking, is because I like to execute this statement after every sync:

EXEC	[dbo].[task_switch_path] @project_id = @project_id, @project_vrs_id = @project_vrs_id, @old_path = 'S:\Thinkwise\Applications\', @new_path = 'Applications\', @use_iam_project = 0
   
Is there any alternative?

Hello Harm,Thank you for posting your question. We'll look into the possibilty to reinstate the post_sync procedure into our new synchronization mechanism. We'll keep you posted when there are any updates.

Hi Harm,

We plan to include this in version 2020.2.

However, it will work a bit different than it used to. Post-sync SQL code will be configurable in the Software Factory at the synchronization screen and deployment package screen.

This code will be executed on IAM after synchronization, when synchronizing directly to IAM and when a deployment package is created and executed via the deployer.

The SQL code will be part of the model and will be retained after the synchronization run or deployment package creation, so it can be used again in the next run.

This way, you won't have to change any procedures on IAM (which is tricky when upgrading).
