Validation Plug-in Developer's Kit (PDK) overview

Use the Validation Plug-in Developer's Kit (PDK) to develop custom validation logic for use in Unica Campaign.

You can create plug-ins to perform custom validation logic for campaigns, offers, or both.

Some possible uses of validation logic are:

  • To check extended (custom) attributes
  • To provide authorization services that are outside of the scope of Unica Platform (for example, validating which users are allowed to edit which extended attributes).

The Validation PDK is a subclass of a more generic plug-in framework that is provided with Unica Campaign.

The Validation PDK contains Javadoc reference information for both the Plug-In API and the sample code. To view the documentation, open the following file in your web browser:
