Angular In-App Inbox Component

Using our Javascript esm module, you can embed the Engagespot notification center in your Angular app.

Quick Setup​

You can install the package from npm or from the CDN.

npm install @engagespot/client

Then import the render function and use that to render the notification center.

import { Component, ViewChild, ElementRef, AfterViewInit } from "@angular/core";
import { render } from "@engagespot/client";

@Component({
  selector: "app-root",
  templateUrl: "./app.component.html",
})
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {
  @ViewChild("engagespotBellIcon") engagespotBellIcon: ElementRef;

  ngAfterViewInit() {
    render(this.engagespotBellIcon.nativeElement, {
      apiKey: "ENGAGESPOT_API_KEY",
      userId: "YOUR_USERS_UNIQUE_ID",
      dataRegion: "us" //us or eu based on your workspace data region
      theme: {}, //Theme Object to Customize the look and feel of the notification inbox.
    });
  }
}

You can find your ENGAGESPOT_API_KEY from your Engagespot Console. As explained in the basic concepts chapter, userId should be any value to uniquely identify your app's users. It can be their email id, or UUID or a numerical id from your database. Navigate to User section to learn more about creating your users in Engagespot.

The above Angular code would not work in online IDEs such as Codesandbox or Stackblitz due to some configuration issues. But it will work fine when you run Angular app directly.
