Integration Flow

Demonstrating the Integration Flow of Game Providers with Bingo Maker

The integration flow between Game Providers and the Bingo Maker involves multiple APIs, including Identity, LiveOps, RoomManager, Round Schedule, Mission Processor, and Inventory. This flow ensures seamless communication and effective management of game sessions, player identities, game operations, and inventories. Below is a structured overview of the integration flow, including the roles of each API.

Integration Flow Overview

1. Identity API:

   • Purpose: Manages player authentication and provides unique player identities.

   • Flow: When a player logs in or registers, the Game Provider communicates with the Identity API to authenticate the player and retrieve their unique identifier. This identifier is essential for all subsequent interactions.

2. RoomManager API:

   • Purpose: Manages game rooms and player allocations.

   • Flow: Once players are authenticated, the Game Provider uses the RoomManager API to create or join a game room. This API handles player seating, game state management, and room assignments.

3. Round Schedule API:

   • Purpose: Manages the scheduling and flow of game rounds.

   • Flow: The Game Provider interacts with the Round Schedule API to define and manage the timing of game rounds. This ensures that players are aware of when games start and end, and it helps synchronize game activities.

4. Mission Processor API:

   • Purpose: Handles player missions and objectives within the game.

   • Flow: The Game Provider can use the Mission Processor API to assign missions to players, track progress, and handle completion rewards. This adds an engaging layer to the gaming experience.

5. LiveOps API:

   • Purpose: Manages live game operations and real-time events.

   • Flow: The LiveOps API is used to manage events that occur during gameplay, such as bonuses, promotions, or special events. The Game Provider can push updates to players in real time, enhancing the overall gaming experience.

6. Inventory API:

   • Purpose: Manages game assets and player inventories.

   • Flow: The Game Provider interacts with the Inventory API to manage items that players can acquire, use, or trade during the game. This includes handling rewards, power-ups, and customization options.
