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! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ง
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. Voilร ! 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.
