How this extension works
Use this extension to generate a custom Snapchat Camera sticker (png) and store on a Cloud Storage bucket for the purpose of sharing to Snapchat Stories using Creative Kit.
Creative Kit allows apps and websites to send content to Snapchat for sharing on Stories, while including a url attachment that helps to grow usage and awareness. This extension makes it easy to generate a sticker that is designed to be overlaid on top of the Snapchat camera (SCSDKNoSnapContent).
When calling the Snapchat sticker api, this extension:
- Generates a new transparent png image to specification for sharing over Snapchat Camera with Creative Kit and Creative Kit Web
- Customizes the image content based on the url and product schema or a provided url
- Alternatively, customizes the image content based on the product and schema collection data of a Firestore product
Generated images can be cached by providing a path to store cached images.
Detailed configuration information
To configure this extension, specify a Cloud Storage bucket to store the generated images.
Product and Schema collections are optional and can be configured to allow stickers to be generated based on your own products.
Caching is an optional path for storing a generated image and is recommended for better performance.
Additional setup
Before installing this extension, make sure that you’ve set up a Cloud Storage bucket in your Firebase project.
In the Snap Kit Developer Portal you’ll need to create an account and register your app and/or website to enable sharing to Snapchat via Creative Kit. See docs here: Getting Started and Creative Kit.
