This command takes a single argument, which is a string that specifies the application ID. Use the NewsActivityStreamService.listApplicationRegistrations() command to retrieve this ID.

Results are returned as key value pairs that are separated by commas.

For example:

{imageUrl=http://example.com:9082/connections/resources/web/
   com.ibm.lconn.core.styles/images/iconCommunities16.png, summary=null, 
   isEnabled=true, secureUrl=https://example.com:9445/communities, 
   secureImageUrl=https://example.com:9445/connections/resources/web/
   com.ibm.lconn.core.styles/images/iconCommunities16.png, appId=communities,
   displayName=communities, url=http://example.com:9082/communities}
```

NewsActivityStreamService.listApplicationRegistrations() : Returns a list of the applications that are registered with the News service. The applications are separated by commas and formatted as follows:

```
application ID=Display name or description
```

NewsActivityStreamService.registerApplication(appId, displayName, url, secureUrl, imageUrl, secureImageUrl, summary, isEnabled) : Registers a new application.

This command takes the following parameters:

-   appId. The ID of the application that you want to register.
-   displayName. The name of the application that you want to display in the product user interface.
-   url. The web address for the application.
-   secureUrl. The secure web address for the application.
-   imageUrl. The web address for an image to associate with the application in the user interface.
-   secureImageUrl. The secure web address for an image to display for the application.
-   summary. A short description of the application.
-   isEnabled. A Boolean string that specifies whether the registration is enabled or disabled.

**Note:** You must include the appId and isEnabled parameters, but the remaining parameters are optional. After registering an application, you might also need to restart the Home page application for the application to display in the filter list.

For example:

```
NewsActivityStreamService.registerApplication
("testApp", "Test Application", "http://www.test.com/gadget.xml", 
"https://www.test.com/gadget.xml", "http://www.test.com/image.jpg", 
"https://www.test.com/image.jpg", "summary", "true")
```

NewsActivityStreamService.removeApplicationRegistration(appId) : Removes the specified application registration.

This command takes a single parameter, which is the ID of the application that you want to remove.

For example, the following command removes the registration of the testApp application.

```
NewsActivityStreamService.removeApplicationRegistration("testApp")
```

NewsActivityStreamService.updateApplicationRegistration(appId, field, value) : Updates a particular field associated with an existing, registered application.

This command takes the following parameters:

-   appId. The ID of the application that you want to update.
-   field. The registration field whose information you want to update. Set this parameter to one of the following values:
    -   displayName. The updated name of the application.
    -   url. The updated web address for the application.
    -   secureUrl. The updated secure web address for the application.
    -   imageUrl. The updated web address of the image to associate with the application in the user interface.
    -   secureImageUrl. The updated secure web address of the image to associate with the application in the user interface.
    -   summary. An updated short description of the application.
    -   isEnabled. A Boolean string that specifies whether the registration is enabled or disabled.
-   value. The value of the field that you are updating. When you are updating the displayName field, summary, or one of the URL fields, specify the value as a string. When you are updating the isEnabled field, specify a Boolean string.

For example, the following command disables the registration of the testApp application:

```
NewsActivityStreamService.updateApplicationRegistration("testApp", "isEnabled", "false")
```

NewsActivityStreamService.updateApplicationRegistrationForEmailDigest(appId, isEnabled, defaultFollowFrequency, isLocked) : Updates a registered application so that it is enabled for email digest functionality. When you run this command, the updates occur immediately; you do not need to restart the system.

Enabled applications are included on the Email Preferences page, and email notifications are sent to the intended recipients of activities. Users can select the frequency with which they want to be notified about updates, as with the standard HCL Connections applications. Depending on the user's choice, an email notification is sent either immediately or grouped in a daily or weekly newsletter.

This command takes the following parameters:

**Note:** You must run the command every time a parameter update is required.

-   appId. The ID of the application that you want to update.
-   isEnabled. A Boolean string that specifies whether the registration is enabled or disabled for email digest sending.
-   defaultFollowFrequency. A value that specifies the default frequency with which application updates are notified. The following values are valid: NONE, INDIVIDUAL, DAILY, and WEEKLY.
-   isLocked. A Boolean string that specifies whether email settings for the application are locked or unlocked.

    **Note:** Setting this parameter to true enforces the defaultFollowFrequency parameter for all users, and individual user settings for the application are overridden. When isLocked is set to true, a lock icon displays next to the application name on the Email Preferences page, and the radio buttons for selecting the notification frequency for the application are disabled. When isLocked is set to false, users can specify notification frequency settings for the application, and any settings that were previously specified are restored.


For example:

```
NewsActivityStreamService.updateApplicationRegistrationForEmailDigest("testApp", "true", "DAILY", "false")
```

NewsScheduler commands

NewsScheduler.getTaskDetails(java.lang.String taskName) : Returns information about the scheduled task specified by taskName.

The values returned are server time, next scheduled run time, status \(SCHEDULED, RUNNING, SUSPENDED\), and task name. When the task has been paused, then the status parameter shows as SUSPENDED instead of SCHEDULED. SUSPENDED means that the task is not scheduled to run.

For example:

```
NewsScheduler.getTaskDetails("NewsDataCleanup")
```

The resulting output looks similar to the following:

```
{taskName=NewsDataCleanup, currentServerTime=Fri Mar 12 
14:42:25 GMT 2010, nextFireTime=Fri Mar 12 23:00:00 
GMT 2010, status=SCHEDULED}
```

NewsScheduler.pauseSchedulingTask(java.lang.String taskName) : Temporarily pauses the specified task and stops it from running.

When you pause a scheduled task, the task remains in the suspended state even after you stop and restart News or the WebSphere Application Server. You must run the NewsScheduler.resumeSchedulingTask\(String taskName\) command to get the task running again.

If the task is currently running, it continues to run but is not scheduled to run again. If the task is already suspended, this command has no effect. When the task is paused successfully, a 1 is returned to the wsadmin client. When the task is not paused successfully, a 0 is returned.

For example:

```
NewsScheduler.pauseSchedulingTask("NewsDataCleanup")
```

NewsScheduler.resumeSchedulingTask(java.lang.String taskName) : If the task is suspended, puts the task in the scheduled state. If the task is not suspended, this command has no effect.

When a task is resumed, it does not run immediately; it runs at the time when it is next scheduled to run.

For example:

```
NewsScheduler.resumeSchedulingTask("NewsDataCleanup")
```

When the task is resumed successfully, a 1 is returned to the wsadmin client. When the task is not resumed successfully, a 0 is returned.
