Serving JSONP

External Co-browse resources, such as localization files or custom chat templates, must be served via JSONP. Genesys Co-browse provides a simple way to serve resources using JSONP.

To serve a resource, put the resource into the "static" Jetty webapp directory (server/webapps/static in Co-browse deployment) of every Co-browse node in your cluster. You can then reference the resource as http://<COBROWSE_SERVER_URL>/static/your-resource.extension.

Supported extensions are *.json, *.html, *.xml.

JSONP Example

Example: Serving Localization (JSON)

Suppose you wanted to override one key in the localization files so that the title of all UI dialogs would be "My Company" instead of "Co-browse". You could accomplish this by doing the following:

1. Create a file with the following content:

   {
     "modalTitle": "My Company"
   }

2. Save the file with the .json extension. For example, my-localization.json.
3. Copy the file into the server/webapps/static folder of every Co-browse server in your cluster.
4. In your instrumentation, tell Co-browse to use this file for localization using the Configuration API:

   <script>
   var _genesys = {
       cobrowse: {
           localization: 'http:<COBROWSE_URL>/static/my-localization.json'
       }
   };
   </script>

Important

You must put the resource(s) on all nodes in the Co-browse cluster.
