Custom API 2.0 Gamification Embed

Custom API 2.0 Integration Embed

Leverage our custom API to seamlessly integrate Pointagram with your platform. Effortlessly embed any of Pointagram’s pages—such as profiles, reward stores, competitions, and widget boards—directly into your applications. Boost user engagement and deliver a gamified, immersive experience with Pointagram’s powerful features. Looking for end points?

Below is an example of how you might generate an HMAC-SHA256 signature using Shopify’s built-in Liquid filter in a theme or template. Keep in mind the same fundamental approach applies to other programming languages—simply use any HMAC-SHA256 function in your preferred environment.

Fetching Your App ID and App Shared Secret

Go to Settings → Integrations in Pointagram.
Create a Custom Integration.
Click Create Credentials to generate your keys.
Save the App ID and App Shared Secret in a secure place.

Tip
These credentials work like a password – avoid exposing them in client-side code.

App ID and App Shared Secret: How They’re Used

App ID (appid):
- Obtained from your Pointagram Custom Integration screen.
- Passed in the query string as client={{appid}}.
App Shared Secret:
- Also retrieved from your Custom Integration screen, alongside the App ID.
- Used to generate an HMAC signature, but never placed directly in the iframe.
- This signature is included in the URL as &code={{my_secret_string}}.

Generating the HMAC Signature (the `code` Parameter)

Decide which data string you need to sign. For example, for a profile embed with external IDs, the default format is:

				
					"{{player_prefix}}{{playerid}} {{appid}} {{now}}"

Notice the spaces between each element.
Use your App Shared Secret to generate an HMAC (SHA-256) hash of that string(shopify liquid):

				
					{% assign player_prefix = "abc_" %}
{% assign playerid      = "12345" %}
{% assign appid         = "my-app-id" %}
{% assign now           = "1678200609" %}
{% assign app_secret    = "YOUR_APP_SHARED_SECRET" %}

{%- capture data_string -%}
{{ player_prefix }}{{ playerid }} {{ appid }} {{ now }}
{%- endcapture -%}

{% comment %}
  data_string now holds something like: "abc_12345 my-app-id 1678200609"
{% endcomment %}

{%- assign hmac_signature = data_string | hmac_sha256: app_secret -%}

Use the Generated Code in Your iFrame

You can then embed the code into the iframe URL parameter, for example:

				
					<iframe
  src="https://tv.pointagram.com/v/?
       showprofile=1
       &extid={{ player_prefix }}{{ playerid }}
       &ts={{ now }}
       &client={{ appid }}
       &code={{ hmac_signature }}"
  title="Pointagram"
  style="border:0; margin: 0; height: 100vh; width: 100vw;"
>
</iframe>

Tip:
If your hmac_signature contains characters that need URL encoding (often hex characters are safe, but it’s good practice to be sure), consider adding | url_encode:

				
					&code={{ hmac_signature | url_encode }}

Important Security Reminder

Do Not Expose Secrets in Theme Code
Liquid code in Shopify themes is often publicly visible if someone inspects the compiled source or theme settings. If possible, perform the HMAC generation on a secure server instead.
Store Secrets Safely
If you must keep the secret in Shopify, consider a private app or a secure location that’s not accessible to the public.
Validate Timestamps
Pointagram requests often include a Unix timestamp (now) to prevent replay attacks. Make sure you generate it at request time and accept only a small time window on your server.

Embedding Examples

Use a clear subheading for each type of page you can embed. Show the iframe code, detail which parameters must be replaced, and note the required HMAC generation steps.

Profile sharing

You can allow profile sharing for certain integrations. Profile sharing lets you embed parts of Pointagram into your own site and show information for a certain player. In order to request data from Pointagram your web site needs to create a hash message authentication code (HAMC) using a shared secret.

				
					{% assign player_prefix = "abc_" %}
{% assign playerid      = "12345" %}
{% assign appid         = "my-app-id" %}
{% assign now           = "1678200609" %}
{% assign hidebanner    = "1" %}
{% assign tabparam      = "tab" %}
{% assign tab           = "0" %}
{% assign app_secret    = "YOUR_APP_SHARED_SECRET" %}

{% capture data_string %}
{{ player_prefix }}{{ playerid }} {{ appid }} {{ now }}
{% endcapture %}

{% assign hmac_signature = data_string | hmac_sha256: app_secret %}

{% capture iframe_url %}
https://tv.pointagram.com/v/?showprofile=1
&hidebanner={{ hidebanner }}
&{{ tabparam }}={{ tab }}
&extid={{ player_prefix }}{{ playerid }}
&ts={{ now }}
&client={{ appid }}
&code={{ hmac_signature }}
{% endcapture %}

Note, keep the App Shared Secret safe and not accessible in your client code.

You need to replace values within curly brackets as follows:

{{hidebanner}}: 0 or 1 (hide or show the banner).
{{tabparam}}: 'tab' or 'fstab'.
{{tab}}: 0-indexed active tab.
{{player_prefix}}: Optional prefix if you construct external IDs with prefixes.
{{playerid}}: The player’s external ID in your system.
{{now}}: Current Unix timestamp.
{{appid}}: Your App ID.
{{my_secret_string}}: The HMAC you generate, as described above.

				
					 "{{player_prefix}}{{playerid}} {{appid}} {{now}}". Note the spaces between {{playerid}} and {{appid}} and between {{appid}} and {{now}}.

The example above assumes that you want to use the player external id as identification for which player to display. If you prefer to use Pointagram internal id you can do so by adjusting the example above as follows:

				
					<iframe src="https://tv.pointagram.com/v/?showprofile=1&hidebanner={{hidebanner}}&{{tabparam}}={{tab}}&prid={{playerid}}&ts={{now}}&client={{appid}}&code={{my_secret_string}}" title="Pointagram" style="border:0; margin: 0; height: 100vh; width: 100vw;"> </iframe>

Where playerid is the Pointagram player id.

Code should be built up as follows:

				
					"{{playerid}} {{appid}} {{now}}". Note the spaces between {{playerid}} and {{appid}} and between {{appid}} and {{now}}.

Competition sharing

You can allow Competition sharing for certain integrations. Competition sharing lets you embed competitions into your own site. In order to request data from Pointagram your web site needs to create a hash message authentication code (HAMC) using a shared secret.

Please read profile sharing first.

You need to replace values within curly brackets as follows:

				
					{% assign player_prefix   = "abc_" %}
{% assign playerid        = "12345" %}
{% assign appid           = "my-app-id" %}
