Community Enhancement for iZooto

[Mike Gholson]

Hi guys, I am currently looking into ways I can add a notification service to my board.  iZooto seems like a great opportunity and they have great support.  They do have a monetization plan and profit sharing that goes along with it.

I haven't seen anything on the developer portal for integrations with this app but I think this would be a great addition to your community enhancements area.  There is also another service called pushcrew, which I haven't studied yet.  However, here's the API information for iZooto.  https://www.izooto.com/how-web-push-api-works

I've tried integration at the root website level, but it appears there is a problem with multiple manifest files on the same server.  IPB doesn't allow for custom manifest control (which I will be adding another request separately), so it doesn't seem to work without a custom integration.  Thanks.

FYI, there are a few steps needed to get the code to work correctly.  They also have an option to generate a unique API key.  Either method would require a configuration space to add these files and place the API token.

Here's the default method (for HTTPS websites without integration):

Please follow steps mentioned below to setup push notifications on your website

Step 1 : Place files - manifest.json, service-worker.js - included in the following installation zip at root directory of your website. These files should be accessible.

Step 2 : Copy & place following JS code before </head> tag on all website pages

<script> window._izq = window._izq || []; window._izq.push(["init"]); </script>
<script src="https://cdn.izooto.com/scripts/your_unique_ID_here.js"></script>

Yes, I had a custom plugin made so I could edit the value in the automatic manifest file.
