MLSE - TORONTO RAPTORS INSIDER

• special offers

• short clips

• fan-generated content

• bring the fans closer to their supported Toronto basketball team

• inform, entertain and engage them

Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) — worldwide-famous already for constantly reinventing the fan experience, assigned us with two main tasks:

1. to ensure that the content provided on their new fan site would be seamlessly served across multiple user devices

2. to handle the site's integration with all the third-party services and apps that content would be retrieved from

Requirements which, once met, would help them achieve their main goal: growing the team's fan base by delivering supporters an array of unique experiences beyond the playing field.

• developed the fan-community site from scratch, in Drupal 7; first, we built the custom architecture, then we developed and implemented all the needed components

• managed to synchronize content between the Vimeo account and Drupal; the implemented solution is a forced manual update (purge all/fetch all feature)

• integrated the website with Vimeo platform services; video content now gets pulled, directly from its source, via API

• integrated it with the Janrain CIAM platform; the website now leverages a common user database, accessed by various MLSE applications and services

• configured the Janrain workflow to be used on a multisite setup; this way, specific fields of the global Janrain user data object can get easily retrieved and updated

• implemented token sign-in validation from a mobile application: users can migrate, with a single click login, from the fan site to the mobile app
