[FEAT]: Third Party App Integration -Backend

[Goldyn19]

Description

Develop the backend logic to integrate third-party applications (Zoom, Teams, Slack, Dropbox, OneDrive, etc.) into the organization's workflow, enabling the activation and deactivation of these apps efficiently.

Acceptance Criteria

Third-Party App Integration:

• Implement server-side logic to handle the integration of third-party applications.
• Develop endpoints to activate and deactivate third-party applications.

  User Preferences:

• Store integration details securely in the database.
• Handle user-specific configurations and preferences related to each application.

  Activation/Deactivation Handling:

• Log successful activations and deactivations.
• Implement retry mechanisms for failed activations/deactivations.

  Security Measures:

• Use HTTPS for secure data transmission.
• Validate user input on the server side.
• Encrypt sensitive data such as API tokens and user credentials.

  Purpose

  To enhance workflow efficiency by enabling seamless integration with third-party applications, allowing users to activate and deactivate these apps securely and efficiently.

  Requirements

• Develop server-side logic to integrate third-party applications.
• Securely store integration details in the database.
• Ensure compliance with security standards for handling sensitive information.

  Expected Outcome

• The backend should handle the activation and deactivation of third-party applications securely and efficiently.
• The system should log activations/deactivations and handle errors appropriately.

  Endpoints

  Fetch Apps:

  Description: Provide a list of available third-party applications to the frontend. Endpoint: GET /api/apps Response (Success):

  {
  "apps": [
  {
    "id": "String",
    "name": "String",
    "description": "String",
    "status": "String"  // e.g., "active" or "inactive"
  }
  ]
  }

  Response (Error):

  {
  "message": "Failed to fetch apps",
  "statusCode": 500
  }

  Activate App:

  Description: Activate a selected third-party application. Endpoint: POST /api/apps/activate Request Body:

  {
  "userId": "String",
  "appId": "String"
  }

  Response (Success):

  {
  "message": "App activated successfully.",
  "transactionId": "String"
  }

  Response (Error):

  {
  "message": "App activation failed",
  "statusCode": 400
  }

  Deactivate App:

  Description: Deactivate a selected third-party application. Endpoint: POST /api/apps/deactivate Request Body:

  {
  "userId": "String",
  "appId": "String"
  }

  Response (Success):

  {
  "message": "App deactivated successfully.",
  "transactionId": "String"
  }

  Response (Error):

  {
  "message": "App deactivation failed",
  "statusCode": 400
  }

  Tasks

• [ ] Create an endpoint (GET /apps) to fetch available third-party applications.
• [ ] Create endpoints (POST /apps/activate, POST /apps/deactivate) to handle the activation and deactivation of applications.
• [ ] Validate user input on the server side.
• [ ] Integrate with third-party APIs (e.g., Zoom, Teams, Slack, Dropbox, OneDrive) to handle app activations and deactivations.
• [ ] Implement server-side logic to handle successful and failed activations/deactivations.
• [ ] Ensure all sensitive data is encrypted and secure.
• [ ] Implement logging for errors and activation/deactivation attempts.
• [ ] Write unit tests for the activation and deactivation endpoints.
• [ ] Write integration tests for third-party API integrations.

  Testing

• Write unit tests for backend validation and transaction handling.
• Write integration tests for the end-to-end activation/deactivation process.
• Perform security testing to ensure data protection and compliance.
• Test various scenarios for app activations and deactivations (e.g., successful, failed, retry).
