External services
In order for the Kreechat plugin to work with our external messaging app, it communicates with our external API.
We use our external API to store and retrieve multiple important things.
app/server/get-wordpress-messages”,{:
Retrieve the messages once a user opens the Kreechat widget. It sends the stored kreechat_token and the email of the user to our servers.
com/privacy-policy/
app/server/send-wordpress-file’, {:
Stores files on our server sent by the Kreechat widget. The company wordpress token is sent to the server.
com/privacy-policy/
app/server/create-wordpress-ticket’;
Creates a ticket when a new user opens the Widget and enters their email address. We send the company wordpress token and email to the server. This endpoint is used when a user opens the chat for the first time.
com/privacy-policy/
app/server/register-wp-token’;:
Registers the WordPress token which the user has created previously inside of the Kreechat application.
com/privacy-policy/
app/server/unregister-wordpress-token’;:
Deletes and unregisters the WordPress token previously registered. This runs when an administrator disconnects the site and when the plugin is deleted, so a deleted plugin leaves no site registered with Kreechat. Nothing is sent to the Kreechat servers.
Only the origin of the request.
com/privacy-policy/
js report-wordpress-location:
Saves each visited route of the website the user is currently on for display inside of the Kreechat app. Sent over the widget’s existing socket connection, identified by the secure JWT that connection was opened with.
com/privacy-policy/
path}:
Retrieves a file from our servers. The message id alongside the company wordpress token are sent to our servers.
com/privacy-policy/
3, imported as a module):
io for real-time communication between our servers and the Kreechat plugin. It is loaded as a module and never registered as a global, so it does not interfere with other plugins that ship their own copy.
com/privacy-policy/
app/server/get-wordpress-jwt’, {:
This endpoint is used to create a secure JWT for our socket communication. It sends the company token to our servers when the token has expired or when a new connection is made.
