LN Multi-Tenant Cloud Exchange Synchronizer

This section describes how to configure and administer the LN Multi-Tenant Cloud Exchange Synchronizer, also known as Cloud Exchange Synchronizer.

Note: This section is only applicable for LN Cloud customers. It describes the configuration and administration of an on-premises installation of LN UI. This LN UI installation is exclusively used to synchronize contact and calendar events between LN CE and Microsoft Exchange Online.

The Cloud Exchange Synchronizer synchronizes contacts and calendar events between Microsoft Exchange Online and LN in the multi-tenant cloud.

Similar to the Exchange Synchronizer used for on-premises LN, the Cloud Exchange Synchronizer is an integral component of LN UI. Cloud Exchange Synchronizer is installed and operated on premises, independently of the multi-tenant LN and its corresponding LN UI for transactional access. Cloud Exchange Synchronizer connects to the multi-tenant LN in the cloud through the Infor OS ION API gateway and OAuth 2.0 authorization.

Note:  Cloud Exchange Synchronizer does not support push synchronization of calendar information. Only periodic pull retrieval of contact and calendar information is supported!

Prerequisites

Cloud Exchange Synchronizer is only available if these conditions are met:

  • The Enterprise Server Installer was used to create an on-premises installation of LN UI.
  • During this installation, the Install LN UI as LN Multi-Tenant Cloud Exchange Synchronizer option was selected.

Administration of the Cloud Exchange Synchronizer

The Cloud Exchange Synchronizer runs as part of the LN UI that is installed on premises. To start and stop the Cloud Exchange Synchronizer, start the on-premises LN UI Administration Webapp and select Infor LN > MT Cloud Exchange Synchronizer.
