Understanding and implementing the FDC3 standard can be complex, particularly for developers who are new to the financial services industry. The need to grasp concepts like context, intents, and app directories can pose a steep learning curve and developers must consider a broad range of use cases and how to fit interoperability to specific workflows.  Connectifi Templates introduces a much needed accelerator to this process, with single-click set up of key interoperability use cases that can then be customized and expanded on using the power of Connectifi’s cloud native platform.

FDC3 - Off the Shelf

We’re launching with 4 templates that build examples of the most common use cases we see and get asked about for FDC3.  These are:

Contact Management

Managing a list of contacts and integrating fdc3.contact context data with any number of receiving applications.

‍

Cross Device

Extending interoperability workflows across devices via broadcast and intents.

Financial Management

Creating a ticker watchlist and connecting to common financial applications such as news feeds and charts.

Sharing Features

Adding a share button to your content to automatically connect it to collaboration and social applications.

Using Connectifi Templates

Using the templates is easy.  Just follow the links above or go to https://platform.connectifi.app/templates.  (If you aren’t already signed up, registration is free!).  Full details of the template are on each page, including recommendations on how to expand upon and customize the template after importing.  Click on the ‘Import’ button, enter a new directory name, and Connectifi will automatically create the directory, configure it, add the applications, and add any required intents and context definitions as well.  After that, simply go to the directory and run an app to get started!

Configuration of the directory includes set up of applications.

Raising an intent reflects the application registrations for the directory.

Much More to Come

This initial drop of Connectifi Templates is sitting on top of a whole framework for generating and automating configuration on the platform.  Look for more more templates coming soon.  And if you want a use case that you don’t see here, let us know at support@connectifi.co or reach us on our Discord Server.
