How to do it
Authorize a user on your own website (e.g., have the user log in with an email and password).
Send the authorized user's email address to the authorize API endpoint to retrieve a user token.
Use the user token to make a request to the custom catalogs API endpoint to retrieve your ZOOMcustom Catalogs. Each ZOOMcustom Catalog will contain a personalized link specific to the user from step 1. When the user clicks this link, the ZOOMcustom tool will launch and the user will automatically be logged in to the tool.
Embed information from the ZOOMcustom Catalog on your website, such as:
- Catalog cover thumbnail
- Catalog name
- Personalized link to the catalog in the ZOOMcustom tool
