I have a crazy idea, it happens that in WooCommerce I am using a virtual wallet (based on points) which I would like to synchronize with the gamification points of Discourse… but I feel that only a API is very heavy (be consulting every x cron or when user hace action in WC)… you could create a webhook so that the virtual wallet in WooCommerce is updated with the points obtained in discourse?.. I attach a guide schema
I know it can be more complex than it seems, especially since the Discourse API is relatively new (and there’s no webhook either), but I only present a use case, validate the idea
Oh, I hadn’t thought of that approach… ie I can use n8n (own hosting to reduce costs); I’ll create a cron trigger every 5 or maybe 10 minutes querying the Discourse API for new points (How would I go about querying all users? Or would you do it for events?)… Although, of course, there will be a constant little time window where you won’t see the score synced across both platforms…
I was thinking about it, and I think that if a webhook could be created for the gamification plugin sending the information by events (without having to consult via API) this would avoid having to consult, for example, if there are 200 active users, 200 times a API every 5 minutes (also by default Discourse allows webhooks)…it’s important because Discourse is the main source of points (and updates more constantly) and this would be an update that allows background sync. instantly according to the changes in Discourse…
