    I have faced with a problem when integrating 2 different APIs in my application. The problem is that they are using different spring transaction managers with different data sources (MSSQL) & transaction templates. Spring tranasction managers are created programmatically not with beans.

    Here is the snippet of the method:

    public void f(){
         ...
         getManager().deployWorkingCopy(userId, toDeploy); //API1, TransactionManager1, DataSource1
    
         List<User> users = umApi.loadAllUsers();
         List<Group> groups = umApi.loadAllGroups();
    
         for(User user : users){
            umSynchronization.synchronizeUser(user); //API2, TransactionManager2, DataSource2
         }
    
         for(Group group : groups){
            umSynchronization.synchronizeGroup(group); //API2, TransactionManager2, DataSource2         
         }
    }
    

    So my question is, is it possible to execute those queries in one transaction? How?
