Class ClientActionRequest

ClientActionRequest objects represent a special request from the server to a particular client that is outside of the typical ClOUDPRNT printing/peripheral control flow. Example requests include setting a client side ID, getting the Client type or version. ClientActions are client device specific and optional, not all requests will be supported by all devices, please check the official CloudPRNT specification for your device.

To issue a ClientAction request to a device, first wait for the device to issue a PollRequest to your server via http POST. When preparing the PollResponse response to the device any required ClientActionRequest objects can be added in a list to the PollResponse.clientAction property.

A Client will provide a response/acknowledgement of the ClientActionRequests by including a list of ClientActionResult objects in the PollRequest.clientAction property of a subsequent poll message.
