To create notifications in Smarts SAM using the Perl API 

The notifications viewed in the Smarts SAM Global Console are instances of the "ICS_Notification" class. To create a Smarts SAM notification, the perl-Api InCharge::session module must be used to create an instance of a model class, set attributes, and invoke model operations/functions.

 

In Smarts SAM, the model factory class called "ICS_NotificationFactory" is used to create notifications. This model class has operations called findNotification, makeNotification, and so on.
