Subscribe and Notify on VNF package

This document describes the procedure for sending notifications related to VNF package management.

Precondition: The subscribed API consumer has subscribed previously for notifications related to VNF package management.

If an event occurs that matches the filtering criteria which are part of the subscription, Etsicatalog will generate notification that includes information about the event, and sends it in the body of a POST request to the URI
which the subscribed API consumer has registered as part of the subscription request. 

The subscribed API consumer should acknowledges the successful delivery of the notification by returning a "204 No Content" response.

1.VnfPackage Onboarding Notification

When onboarding VNF package successfully, Etsicatalog will filter all Subscriptions records:

  • notificationTypes == “VnfPackageOnboardingNotification”

     &&

  • VnfPackage‘s vnfdId / vnfPkgId / vnfProductsFromProviders matching subscription.filters

If there are matching subscription records,  Etsicatalog will send a notification to the URI which is provided by the Client in its subscription request.
