We are using Creatio 7.16.3 Service enterprise on-premises (Infra on AWS cloud). We have a use case where certain fields on the Creatio GUI need to send and receive real time updates for a specific user across multiple browser client instances that s/he might be using.
We have zero-ed in on Firebase real time database to maintain state on the server side. We plan to establish Creatio client - Firebase interaction via the Firebase JS SDK to send and receive real time updates. Few clarifications below -
1. Have there been known instances of Creatio successfully integrating with Firebase real time database in the past? If Yes, any available material/documentation around the same would help.
2. Are there any gotchas or limitations we need to keep in mind from an implementation, security and performance perspectives specific to the Creatio product while integrating with Firebase real time database? Eg with Service workers.
4. Is there a way to directly inject a CDN link globally on Creatio without having to physically include the contents of the file as suggested in the above link?
1. We have checked the existing case history but unfortunately didn't find any request related to integration with Firebase service, sorry.
2. Unfortunately, we don't have any specific best practices for integrations. It is necessary to use generally accepted engineering practices and instructions but we will happy to assist with any difficulties you may have.
3. This question was already answered in the mentioned community post. Duplicating the answer here:
"Please call jQuery.getScript function in the console and review the sources tab as I recommended and use it as an example to add your own jQuery to the system"
4. As of now, there is no way to use CDN link in the Creatio application. If it will be available in future releases, you will be able to find this information in the Creatio release notes.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.
