Summary

This article describes how to sync a single user, computer or user computer relationship to the App Portal database.

Synopsis

App Portal syncs user and computer data from SCCM on a nightly basis (at 2:00 AM by default). Using a web service API, there is a way to force a sync of a single user,  computer, or user computer relationship. Generally, this would be done when the user/computer discovery data has changed for a given user/computer in SCCM, and it is desirable to force a partial sync as soon as possible. 

Discussion

The API call SyncSingleUserComputer can be viewed by going to the following URL in a browser on the App Portal server:

http://localhost/esd/ws/integration.asmx


Upon invoking this API, the specified user will be synced into the App Broker Database along with the current AD property data for the user. If a computer name is specified, then the computer and relationship data will also be synced.
