Load/Extract EventHandler

Hi OneStream experts,

I was looking to understand if it's even possible to handle the load button from the Load/Extract section in OneStream using a specific EventHandlers of any kind.

I need to be able to add validations whenever a Metadata xml file is loaded through the Load/Extract to check certain things of its content without falling (as usual) in a custom development from scratch.

Hopefully someone is able to assist.

Thank you!

    The WcfEventHandler is normally used to intercept such calls but in my testing it is not fired when a metadata file is loaded or extracted. This page has a list of the service types that can be intercepted if you want to try for yourself:

    You might be able to avoid a custom development by securing the Load/Extract function (ApplicationLoadExtractPage) and then have a Data Management sequence that has steps for load and validation. The Application Control Manager solution I think has some BRs for loading metadata.
