If you count yourselves among the many organizations who have built web-based tools for employees to use, then you most likely know what a challenge it is to drive traffic to your tools. Many of our customers create links to those tools from within their Igloo site, but what if there was a way to surface your custom built application or content directly?

Well, There is!

There are many cases that warrant a deep integration - but for those cases where simply presenting the application to a user is…

Developers -

What do you want to see in the next version of our development tools? Are there features you miss?
What would make your life easier as you extend and enhance your Igloo?  

We would love to hear your thoughts and ideas. We'll chime in too!

We're making some minor changes to the documentation in Customer Care

When we updated our developer documentation using SwaggerUI the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Moving to the OpenAPI standard meant that most developers would feel right at home with our API documentation.

However, in our next release, we will be disabling the ‘try it now’ feature on the API documentation that lives in the Customer Care site. The ‘Try It Now’ feature relies on your account’s credentials and as a…

What Is The Igloo Marketplace?

There are times when a low-level solution to a high-level problem can seem daunting – How do you solve for X when you have to think about A through W?

 We’ve adopted three simple rules that we follow whenever we’re creating a solution that helps:

When you have successfully created a session with either the V1 or V2 APIs, you should have obtained a SessionKey or TokenID. To start building your customized functionality/integration it is important that you are authorized to do so. Your digital community knows that you are authorized to make API calls when you include the SessionKey or TokenID in the API request.

This article covers the steps on how to make subsequent API calls after you have created a session with any version of the API.

Membership Management is a very important aspect of your digital workplace. Ensuring that your organization's active directory is synced at all time, insures the integrity of the digital workplace and allows for better team collaboration via groups and spaces. Igloo provided a variety of ways to help you achieve this functionality: 

1. Igloo LDAP Sync Tool (ILST)
2. Programatically via our APIs

We strongly recommend the use of our ILST tool as it has been developed specially for the purpose of…

In a previous post, (New endpoints coming soon) we announced new APIs that developers can use to retrieve content programmatically without impacting view analytics. These APIs are now available for use in your projects, continue reading to learn how they work.

If you're using the /.api/api.svc/objects/{OBJECT_ID}/view endpoint to retrieve content and other object meta from an object, it will count as a 'view' on that object.

What if you don't want it to count as a view? That's where the…

Using labels on content makes it easy to categorize and search for content relevant to your users. Did you know that you can also create labels and label groups using the API? 

Category Classes? Categories? Labels? Label Groups? What's the difference?

In the Igloo API, labels are called 'Categories', and label groups are referred to as 'Category Classes'.   

Category Classes

Category Classes(label groups) allow you to organize your categories(labels) into meaningful groups. This is…
