# Tenant settings

# Rubens settings

The Rubens configurator has several properties that can be set and change the appearance. This includes, for example, showing and hiding the AR button or setting an initial floor material.

You can change the Rubens configurator settings in your tenant account by following these steps:

  1. Click on the hamburger menu on the top left. A drawer menu shows up. Now click on Tenant settings.

  2. Inside the Tenant settings page, you will see a selected configurator ID. If the tenant account has multiple configurators, you can switch between them using a select box.

  3. Now you have the chance to either use the adapt the Rubens settings in the editor or the advanced mode. From a functional perspective there is no difference between both modes but the editor gives you the chance to adapt the settings with a user interface including a description for the settings.

# Editor

You need to be Admin inside the tenant to be able to edit the feature flags menu in the editor. The editor consists of a list of all available settings for Rubens. Clicking an option from the list opens a form with a description of the flag and the corresponding input to adapt the settings. Via the preview dropdown on top of the options list, you can see how the set flags influence the configurator. You can search for items in your catalogues and use those for the preview.

If the set option meets your expectations you can save the settings. This automatically sets the option for all your configurators globally on the configuratorId level! So you should be cautious and always use the preview before actually saving the settings.

If you updated a setting and saved it, the corresponding flag is highlighted green in the list. If it is indicated as grey, this means that the default for it is set.

You can filter and search for specific flags in the component on the left side of the screen.

# Special cases inside the Editor

customTutorials: You can create entries for customTutorials via the UI inside the editor. To create a new entry, select the language from the dropdown for which you want to create a custom tutorials entry and click Add custom tutorial. Inside this new form, you can paste in a link, label and description. For links, we support embed links from supademo and youtube. The label entry is used inside the bubble of the tutorials overlay in the configurator. The description is optional and not displayed in the configurator UI. Via the platform parameter, you can define if the tutorial is a mobile or a desktop tutorial and hence will only be shown on the corresponding devices. Dropdown scope defines if the content is displayed as a configurator tutorial or as a room designer tutorial. After saving the changes, the tutorials will be displayed in the configurator for the configuratorId, provided you activated helpcenter parameter for the corresponding scope to true. You can check that in the editor when selecting the entry helpcenter.

# Advanced mode

  1. Type the settings in the text area on the page. The input has to be valid JSON, see our examples here (opens new window). To see how it will look, there is a RELOAD PREVIEW button to reload the displayed configurator with the new settings.

  2. As soon as you are happy with the result, click the SAVE button on the top to publish the changes.

}

# Webhook

You have the possibility to define a webhook URL in Rubens Admin to respond to events.

Enter the URL into the Webhook URL field under Email webhook and save. Find more information about webhooks here (opens new window) and an example here (opens new window).

# Price Service

In the price services section inside the tenant settings of Rubens Admin it is possible to reference an external price API, provided you have implemented such a service on your side. You can only create such a reference if you have Super Admin role for this tenant.

Therefore you have to create a new entry in the corresponding interface. The country code field defines for which countries the prices should be fetched. Via the selection Applies to catalogs you can choose for which of the catalogs in your tenant the price service should be used. You can select more than one catalog there. In the settings field, an entry in JSON format is required which includes the URL to your custom price service.

Once you created this price service entry, all the price requests inside the Rubens configurator for the affected catalogs and countries are then forwarded to this price service. If the response of the price service is formatted correctly, Rubens will be able to display those prices inside the configurators correctly.

If you do not have an individual price service set up there, the default Roomle price API is used for all price requests.

# Analytics

Under Analytics you will find information about the use of the embedded configurators. To get there, click on the hamburger menu on the top left. A drawer menu shows up. Now click on Analytics.

# Task history

Under Task history you can see the renderings, 3D exports and 3D imports that were requested per tenant in Rubens Admin. You can use the filters above the table to filter by the following:

  • Type: filter by task type like renderings, 3D exports and 3D imports.
  • Catalog: filter by the catalog to see only the jobs that happened for products in this catalog. By default no catalog is selected and only catalogs that also provide a result are available for selection.
  • Period: Filter by jobs that happened per selected month. By default the current month is selected.

In the table, you can see the task details like the product, the creation date, the user that requested the task and if the task was successful or failed. By clicking on download a finished rendering or 3D export can be downloaded again. In case of a 3D import there is a go to product link to navigate to the product to see the result. In case of a product variation that has not been saved, this link will take you to the product the variation was created from.

# Saved configurations

Under Saved configurations you can see which configurations are saved internally when specific actions are triggered. This includes AR, 3D export, save draft and requesting a product. The information about it is saved and can be exported here as a CSV or JSON. These files do not contain user email addresses. If you are interested in them use the Save draft analytics.

# Setting up custom tutorials in the configurator URL

# Step 1: Activating the Tutorials Overlay

Once you're inside the Room Designer, ensure that the URL parameter helpcenter setting is enabled. This setting enables the Tutorials Overlay feature.

It is possible to enable the helpcenter both for either configurator or room designer separately.

For configurator you need to set helpcenter.configurator=true. For room designer you have to set helpcenter.roomdesigner=true.

Per default, you will see the standard tutorials provided by roomle.

# Step 2: Sharing Custom Tutorials

# Desktop Tutorials

If you want to upload custom tutorials for the desktop version, follow these steps:

Construct the URL with the custom tutorials parameters:

https://roomle.com/t/cp/?<YOUR_PARAMETERS_HERE>

Replace <YOUR_PARAMETERS_HERE> with the custom tutorials parameters. The parameter customTutorials should contain an array of values with the following structure. An array is a table-like structure where each dataset corresponds to one line in the table.

In those lines you can define:

The link which refers to the tutorial content

label.en which corresponds to the english label displayed in the bubble of the tutorials overlay

label.de which corresponds to the german label displayed in the bubble of the tutorials overlay

desc.en which corresponds to the English description of the video (optional as it is not visible in the configurator UI)

desc.de which corresponds to the German description of the video (optional as it is not visible in the configurator UI)

scope defines if the content should be shown in room designer (assigning roomdesigner) or configurator (assigning configurator)

platform defines if the content to be displayed is mobile (assigning mobile) or desktop content (assigning desktop)

# Step 3: Formatting the URL

When constructing the URL, ensure it follows this format:

&customTutorials[0].link=<VIDEO_URL>&customTutorials[0].label.de=<VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>&customTutorials[0].label.en=<VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>&customTutorials[0].desc.de=<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>&customTutorials[0].desc.en=<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH>&customTutorials[0].scope=room-designer

Replace <VIDEO_URL>, <VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>, <VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>, <VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>, and <VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH> with your video's URL, titles, and descriptions in both German and English.

If you want to add further content, just add new entries increasing the value inside the brackets.

&customTutorials[1].link=<VIDEO_URL>&customTutorials[1].label.de=<VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>&customTutorials[1].label.en=<VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>&customTutorials[1].desc.de=<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>&customTutorials[1].desc.en=<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH>&customTutorials[1].scope=room-designer

# Step 4: Viewing Custom Tutorials

Once the URL with the custom tutorials parameters is constructed in the URL, the Room Designer will display bubbles in the tutorials overlay for each uploaded tutorial. Clicking on a bubble will display the corresponding tutorial video within the Room Designer interface.

# Step 5: Fallback Option

If you have activated the tutorials overlay feature but haven't uploaded any custom tutorials, the Room Designer will display existing tutorial content as a fallback.

# Setting up custom tutorials in Rubens Admin

You can also set the individual tutorial content for all the configurators at once without having to construct each configurator URL. This also brings the advantage that your configurator links are smaller than if you construct the custom tutorial content in the URL.

To do so, navigate to the tenant settings in Rubens Admin. In the Rubens settings JSON you can define global settings for all configurators of a configurationId. So if you have the same tutorial content for your configurator, it is the best option to setup the content for your tutorials there directly.

The procedure is similar to if you set it up in the URL. You have the same parameters available - the only difference is, that you have to bring the format into JSON format. PS: If you are not so familiar with those format, you can ask ChatGPT to convert the URL parameter structure to JSON format for. That works quite well.

{
  "customTutorials": [
    {
      "link": "<VIDEO_URL>",
      "label": {
        "de": "<VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>",
        "en": "<VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>"
      },
      "desc": {
        "de": "<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>",
        "en": "<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH>"
      },
      "scope": "room-designer"
    },
    {
      "link": "<VIDEO_URL>",
      "label": {
        "de": "<VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>",
        "en": "<VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>"
      },
      "desc": {
        "de": "<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>",
        "en": "<VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH>"
      },
      "scope": "room-designer"
    }
  ]
}

Replace <VIDEO_URL>, <VIDEO_TITLE_GERMAN>, <VIDEO_TITLE_ENGLISH>, <VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_GERMAN>, and <VIDEO_DESCRIPTION_ENGLISH> with your actual video URLs, titles, and descriptions in both German and English.

Once you are done editing the Rubens settings you can save your editing. All the configurators of the configuratorId should then have your individual content displayed in the rubens tutorials overlay without having to set them explicitly in the URL provided you enabled the rubens tutorials for your configurators.

That's it! You're now ready to customize your Rubens configurator/Room Designer experience with your own tutorials. If you encounter any issues or have questions, feel free to reach out to our service desk for assistance.
