Due to its high demand and constant change in supply and demand, gold prices fluctuate every hour. Most publications and media around the world publish Gold prices on a daily basis.

Cloud Signage came with an idea of getting first-hand Gold prices directly from the source to your store digital signage screen by calling Gold Price DATA Source through API.

You can use the NodeJS script to collect information from 3rd party data sources (e.g. an external database or web services) and return their values as a data source table. This way you can integrate any data source to the Cloud Signage system.

For example, when you call the script you can pass over parameters as here:

http://app.cloudsignage.io/localscripts/datasource?name=John&age=25

You can receive the parameters as here:

const get = (req, res) => {

const name= req.query.name;

const age= req.query.age;

}

When the results are retrieved you have to pass them back to Cloud Signage server in the following format:

res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'application/text');

res.send(name+" is " + age + " years old");

This real time Gold prices helping customers and merchants is quick decisions, lead generation, finding the price trends.
