Exceptions: If the user does not have the appropriate privilege to synchronize remote providers, a wpro_api_provider.PROVIDER_SECURITY_EXCEPTION is raised. If one or more database links are invalid, an INVALID_DBLINKS_FOUND_EXCEPTION is raised. Note: This and other provider node APIs add error messages to the error stack before they raise exceptions. This allows users to interrogate the error stack if a problem occurs. Example: wwpro_api_node_registry.sync_providers;

Notes
Distributed providers are providers that exist on remote nodes. A database link is an object stored in the local database that identifies a remote database, a communication path to the remote database, and, optionally, a username and password for it. Once defined, the database link is used to perform queries on tables in the remote database.
