  1. Building Enterprise Web and Client Apps with the Yammer Platform Neil McCarthy, Tuong La, and Jose Comboni 3-605

  2. Yammer 101

  3. Viral growth • Sign up for free. • Grouped into private networks by email domain.

  4. Messages • Post messages in the publisher. • User-generated messages appear in the feed.

  5. Activities and objects • System generated events appear in the ticker.

  6. Groups, Files, and Apps • Users create groups. • Users upload files. • Partners develop apps.

  7. The Yammer Platform

  8. Enterprise Social Layer CMS CRM HR ERP SMM CSS Custom DMS

  9. Open Graph in the Enterprise • Sign In With Yammer • Embed Yammer actions (Like and Follow) to send object metadata. • Send activities stories to send object metadata. • Why Open Graph? User growth and engagement.

  10. Other Stuff • REST API • Data Export API • JavaScript SDK

  11. Contract Meow for Windows 8 • Credits: • Tuong La • Jose Comboni • Xiangli Dai • Marvyn Leroy

  12. Yammer REST API • REST API: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REST • Yammer API URI: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1 • Recommended format for data exchange: JSON.

  13. Authentication • Your application must be registered with Yammer to obtain a Client Id and Client Secret. • The Client Id and Client Secret will be used to get an access token. • The token should be kept safe as it is used for authorization for all API calls. • API calls will authenticate users through the ‘Authorization’ header ( Auth-scheme ‘Bearer’ value ‘Token’. • E.g. Authorization: Bearer ASDF252346SFGz

  14. End Points • Autocomplete: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/autocomplete/ • Messages: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/messages.json • Attachments: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/pending_attachments • Search: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/search.json • Notifications: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/streams/notifications.json • More: https://developer.yammer.com/restapi/

  15. Rate Limits • Rate limits are per user per app. • There are four rate limits: • AutoComplete: 10 requests in 10 seconds. • Messages: 10 requests in 30 seconds. • Notifications: 10 requests in 30 seconds. • All Other Resources: 10 requests in 10 seconds. • Exceeding any rate limits will result in all endpoints returning a status code of 429 (Too Many Requests).

  16. AutoComplete End Point • The autocomplete feature is useful for giving suggestions to users when they begin to type something that looks like the name of a group, user or topic. • Yammer ranks various models to provide a useful AutoComplete results. • When Implemented Auto-complete it’s recommended to start sending requests after the 4th character of a word is typed

  17. AutoComplete End Point (cont’d) • Endpoint: https://www.yammer.com/api/v1/autocomplete/ranked • Query String Parameters: • models=modelName:count- modelNamecan be the following: • user, group, open_graph_object, department, external_network, or domain • prefix=string - A string for matching against the searchable fields in the specified models. • ?models={modelName}:{count}&prefix={string} • ?models=user:20&prefix=Matt • ?models=user:20

  18. AutoComplete End Point (cont’d) • { "user": [ { • "id": "2022775", • "full_name": "Tuong La", • "email": "tuong@neilmccarthy-buildconference.com", • "job_title": “Mouse Gatherer", • "photo": "https://mug0.assets.yammer.com/mugshot/images/48x48/4xf...9n6f5", • }, …] }

  19. Open Graph • Connects activities together with a common Open Graph object. • An activity takes the format: • <Actor> <Action> <Object> on <App Name>: <Message> • “John Doe” created “Sales Contract” on Contract Meow: Signed a new client! • More info at: https://developer.yammer.com/opengraph/

  20. Activities • Use Open Graph Object Format • <Actor> <Action> <Object> on <App Name>: <Message> • Actor - The actor is the user that performed an action. • Action - The action is a verb that describes what happened to the object. • Standard actions are “created, updated, deleted, followed, and liked”. • Custom Actions can be created for your network. • Object - An OG object represents an entity instance in your application, like a particular Contract or Event (Lunch Meeting). URL is the unique identifier.

  21. Activity Example (JSON OG representation) • { • "activity":{ • "actor":{ • "name":"JohnDoe", • "email":"john@contract-meow.com"}, • "action":"create", • "object": { • "url":"https://www.contract-meow.com/34242", • "title":"SalesContract"}, • "message":"Signed a new client! " • "users":[ • {"name":"JaneDoe", • "email":"jane@contract-meow.com"} • ] • } • }
