Sync project and project user mapping data to testcase-management suit

[Krunal-Promact]

There are a couple of ways we can sync data between two projects. 1) We can create one job scheduler that runs on every night which will sync data between two projects. 2) We can implement Webhook in OAuth Server.

• Pros and Cons of Job Scheduler

  1. Project and its User information will be updated on a 24-hour interval. so it will not be available as soon as we create a Project in OAuth Server.
  2. No overhead on OAuth server.

• Pros and Cons of Webhook

  1. It is one sort of Overhead on OAuth side. As this solution is feasible for one project because if there are more than one project exist then it becomes cumbersome.
  2. Project and its User information will be updated as soon as Project gets created on OAtuth server.

both approach are complicated to implement and would not offer significant gains in terms of functionality. Simplest way is to just sync projects of the user who is registering. So, when user is authenticated we shall fetch projects associated with him only. similarly as and when more users authenticates we can fetch rest of the projects. While fetching the projects we may sometime fetch a project which is already there is our system in that case we just have to validate that only unique projects fetched every time are entered in our system.

After user authentication, identity server redirects a user to Dashboard action. So I can add code to sync projects that the authenticated user is assigned in Dashboard action. But it has one overhead that whenever a user lands on a Dashboard screen, project sync call to identity server will be done first.

It is not required to sync project every time user authenticates. Just sync project once only when user authenticates for the 1st time. later on provide an ability for user to manually sync project from his profile section.

Understood. Estimation Time to sync project on the first Authentication: 4 hours
