 ==== Retrieve Flagged Items ==== ==== Retrieve Flagged Items ====
 +
 +An internal user must request to retrieve flagged items from the Remote Author site. This will make a call to the Remote Author web service and return a list of all items that have been flagged by the authors as ready to be synchronised. Once the items have been selected via checkbox in the grid, those items are retrieved and then either added or updated to the local Item Writing database. On completion the items are unflagged on the Remote Author site.
 +
 +For performance reasons TDA recommends that 10 or less items be selected in a single batch.
 +
 +Note: the local security records are not synchronised in this retrieve process.

 +When publishing to the Remote Author site the ExternalID field will not be published.
