Interface WatchService

All Known Implementing Classes:

WatchServiceImpl

@ExperimentalApi
public interface WatchService

API service for managing content watchers.

A user can watch (subscribe) or unwatch (unsusbscribe) to events happening in a Space, a particular piece of Content or a Label.

It also provides a means for retrieving the effective watchers of a given piece of content. For e.g., if a user is watching a Space, and a Page in that Space is modified, for that page change it needs to produce a list of all watchers (i.e. watchers of that particular page plus watchers of the whole space).

Since:

6.5.0
