Specifying Notification Signatures (Document Type)

After you implement the configuration logic for the polling notification, you implement logic that defines the signature of the polling notification node. Remember that a polling notification only has an output signature. It is used to create a document type node that enables triggers to identify notification data in the node. To define an output signature, you create additional metadata parameters as follows:

Parameter	Description
signature	Used with the reserved signature resource domain.
fieldName and fieldType	The dependency parameters in which you build the signature data. The relationship between these parameters is established in the WmTemplateDescriptor (as shown in Example Polling Notification: SimpleNotification, lines 117-130).
