The /subscriptions/<platformType> resource is used to create and manage subscription-based notifications for Densify cloud and container recommendations. To learn more watch the video, This resource allows you to set up and schedule the delivery of personalized Densify recommendations to a third-party application for targeted distribution. Personalization of the recommendation data set (returned subscription notification output) is facilitated by the following mechanisms:
  • Return only the systems you are interested in by specifying system attribute conditions with the tagReferences parameter.
  • Return only specific recommendations you are interested in by specifying recommendation property conditions with the propertyReferences parameter.
  • Suppress certain systems or recommendations in the returned output, for a period of time, with the suppressionReferences parameter.
  • Finally, the fields and attributes displayed in the returned output can be customized with the returnStructure parameter. You can specify which recommendation field to display and whether to display the field name or the field alias as the element key.
Subscription notifications are delivered to a third party application, such as Microsoft Teams™ or Slack™, using the webhook definition. If you do not specify a webhook in your Subscriptions definition, the notifications are not triggered because there is no delivery location. See Subscriptions: Status for details on Subscriptions results and webhook status. You can dynamically retrieve the current personalized Subscriptions recommendations by providing a subscription ID in the GET subscription request. See Subscriptions: Results for details on retrieving Subscriptions results on-demand. You can also schedule the frequency of the notification distribution using the schedule definition parameter. Subscriptions without a schedule definition will typically have notifications triggered nightly after recommendation analysis and reporting database updates.

If you use this resource without the <platformType> specified (i.e. without cloud or containers specified), the behavior is exactly the same as specifying the cloud-specific resource. This behavior enables backward compatibility with scripts using the Densify API prior to release 12.1.6, where the platform-specific indicator was not available.
