Sparkles Module

❓

Sparkles are made up of 🕑 rules and 🔔notifications. When a sparkle 🏃‍♀️runs, it grabs visit data and evaluates it based on one or many rules. Once all rules are met then a sparkle is delivered based on notification settings. ✨ For more information read our technical review of Rubi Space.

Sparkle Types

Upcoming Visit Reminders Employees and clients can be notified of an upcoming visit.

Birthday / Anniversary Notifications Show your staff that you have remembered them.

Late Clock In Alerts Employees get the notification first, then the office is notified.

Late Clock Out Alerts Employees get the notification first, then the office is notified.

Rules-driven engine

Each Sparkle can be targeted to work for (include / exclude) only certain branches, service codes, facilities, or client / employee groups.

⚠️

Limitations with Sparkles Although our rules-driven engine can handle countless scenarios and configurations, there are some limitations.

‣

Sparkle configuration updates

We allow users to enable / disable sparkles and notifications attached to them
We do not allow users to change settings themselves, changes are requested via support tickets.

‣

Visit schedule constraints

Sparkles run on a schedule, usually every 15 minutes. This means that all visits must be scheduled on the 00/15/30/45 minute markers of the hour.

‣

Visit update or cancellation

Due to the limitation of Alayacare's API, we cannot create notifications when a visit is created, (re)assigned, updated, or canceled.
If you want to explore this ability, please read this articles in Alayacare's support portal related to SQS (https://alayacare.github.io/external-integration-docs/external-api-guide.html). We plan on incorporating this into our Rubi Space roadmap but do not have a time frame. We can however help you with as part of consulting services, if you need it sooner.
