Smartico Public API

API allows you to build custom Gamification UI using smartico.ai as a backend system.

Please contact your Smartico account manager to get the API keys
and for terms of API usage

Front-end usage

To use the API you need the smartico.js library installed and initialized on your site according to this guide https://help.smartico.ai/welcome/technical-guides/front-end-integration

As soon as the _smartico object is available in the global context and the user is identified, you can call API methods to get the data or act on behalf of the logged-in user.

_smartico.api.getLevels().then( levels => {
    console.log('There are ' + levels.length + ' levels available');
});

Some methods can be called with onUpdate callback, which is executed when there are changes in the underlying data. Example:

var miniGamesUpdates = (games) => {
    console.log('There are ' + games.length + ' games available now');
}

_smartico.api.getMiniGames( { onUpdate: miniGamesUpdates} ).then( games => {
    console.log('There are ' + games.length + ' games available');
});

See the API documentation for all available methods and returning data.

Backend usage (NodeJS context)

Note: access to the server-to-server API is not provided by default and is a topic for a separate agreement with Smartico. We recommend using a front-end API approach in most cases.

Installation

npm install --save @smartico/public-api

Usage

import { SmarticoAPI } from '@smartico/public-api';

const SAPI = new SmarticoAPI( 'your-label-api-key', 'your-brand-key', 'your-message-sender', { logger: console });

const userExtId = 'John1984'
            
const response = await SAPI.miniGamesGetTemplates(userExtId);

response.templates.forEach( t => {
    console.log(t.saw_template_ui_definition.name)
}
