This feature is available on Beefree SDK and above. Upgrade a at no extra charge to explore features from higher plan tiers. Note: Usage on a development application still counts toward and limits.

Introduction

Custom AddOns are useful when there is a feature you'd like to offer within your application that is not available in our AddOn Marketplace within the Developer Console. In these instances, you can develop your own Custom AddOns for your application's end users.

Example of a Custom AddOn

Let’s say you embedded our email editor in your event engagement platform, which has a feature that allows event marketers to insert an event ticket’s QR code in marketing campaigns sent to create more engagement around an event.

  • You want those marketers, users of your platform, to be able to easily include a QR code in the emails they send to remind people about the event. That way ticket holders can use the QR code to quickly get into the event venue.

  • So you decide to create a “QR Code” addon: “QR Code” becomes a new tile in the Content tab in the editor.

  • Marketers drag and drop the tile, click on Select event to indicate which event the QR is for, and use the editor to style that section of the message (e.g. size, padding, etc.).

  • The QR code is created dynamically by your platform, at the time the email is sent to a ticket buyer.

  • The feature is specific to your application.

Availability

  • Superpowers

  • Enterprise

Of course, there are exceptions to this requirement.

  • Testing: if you are not yet on a Superpowers or Enterprise plan, and you want to test building a Custom AddOn:

    • Request an upgrade to the Superpowers plan.

    • Test as much as you want. If and when you decide that you wish to deploy your Custom AddOn in production, we will ask you to upgrade your production application to the Superpowers or Enterprise plan.

  • Development of a Partner AddOn:

    • You provide features that could be a good fit as an extension of our editors

    • You are not a Beefree SDK customer
