Badges awarded from integration

[Finney0225]

Hi! We're thinking of integrating a few other platforms to work with our community - like one for our ideation / brainstorm. Was wondering, is there a way to connect the two for gamification, with badges and ranks. For instance, pulling in the user created a brainstorm on X platform... hope this makes sense lol

It totally makes sense what you are asking. 

I am in between of somthing similar. I am working on the gamification enhancement where integration is required between Khoros and Croudvocate/Influtive. 
And yes, we can integrate the third party platforms using http connections/endpoints.

Thank you! Would integrating third party platforms using http connections / endpoints need to be handled by the khoros side or our teams dev/eng resources? 

[VikasB]

@Finney0225 
That can be handled by -

1. Your dev team if they are familiar with Khoros development 
2. Khoros but you have to buy their professional services 
3. Third Party Vendor

Thank you- super helpful! May be back with more questions when we get this on the roadmap!

@Finney0225 This is more additive to the conversation but I wanted to state that we are looking at gamification updates in our future roadmap and integrations are a big part of that discussion.  I'd love to discuss this further with you when you are ready!

Yes @LarryI - hi 🙂 ! Planning for new year- lets touch base then!

Same idea, just replace OKTA with whatever platform you are using, and then there is a few ways to connect all the dots within Khoros to make the magic happen.
