We're thrilled to unveil the redesigned Landing Page for Spaces. Here's what's new:
🌟
Modern Aesthetics
Our team has brought in a sleek, contemporary design that not only resonates with the modern-day digital landscape but also is aesthetically pleasing to all our users.
🎨
Full Customization with Vatom Studio
We understand that every Space is unique. With that in mind, we've made sure that our new landing page is fully customizable via Vatom Studio, giving you the reins to craft an entrance that matches the vibe of your space.
vatom-landing-page-redesign_32__pdf
🎨
Even MORE customization options!
Customize blur amount, brightness, or separate images for desktop and mobile.
🔐
Streamlined Authentication
Ease-of-access was top-of-mind when we were working on this redesign. Now, attendees can choose from multiple login options, including Enterprise SSO. For those seeking a quick jump into the experience, the option to join as a guest or anonymously ensures that no one is left out.
🛡
Enhanced Security
To give hosts more control, spaces can now be optionally secured with Allowl (Token Gating), a Password, or even a Guest list entry, ensuring that the right audience gets in every time.
🥽
Customize Your Virtual Presence with 'Ready Player Me'
Before entering the Space, attendees can now select or customize their very own 3D avatars via 'Ready Player Me'. Dive into an immersive experience with a persona that’s uniquely you!
With these enhancements, we believe that every attendee's journey, right from the landing page to the heart of the Space, will be more engaging, secure, and tailor-made.
We're beyond thrilled to announce a feature that we believe will redefine the way businesses interact with events happening in real-time. Say hello to Firehose! 🔥💧
What is Firehose?
In its simplest form, Firehose is an event-driven powerhouse that allows you to subscribe and receive events when something interesting takes place within your organization.
How Does It Work?
Getting started with Firehose is straightforward:
  1. Log in to Vatom Studio, Click on your Profile Photo, and select Firehose from the drop-down
  2. Register your Webhook (HTTPS) endpoint.
  3. Subscribe to the events that concern you.
  4. Voilà! You're all set to start receiving real-time events.
Below is a JSON sample that gives an idea of a typical Firehose event.
{
"id": "012345670123456701234567012345670123456701234567",
"type": "space.zoneEntered",
"created": "2023-10-13T18:57:39.726Z",
"apiVersion": "2023-01-01",
"data": {
"userId": "PlaceholderUserId",
"businessId": "PlaceholderBizId",
"spaceId": "PlaceholderSpaceId",
"zoneId": "01234567-abcd-abcd-abcd-0123456789ab"
}
}
The event showcased above indicates that a user has entered a specific zone within a space, and your business has opted to track such occurrences.
Full documentation for configuring webhooks to capture specified types of firehose events and event schema are now available from the Developer Portal at Firehose Events.
