Introduction

The amp-subscriptions-google is the extension that enables Subscribe with Google in an AMP page.

See amp-subscriptions for more details on AMP Subscriptions.

See Subscribe with Google GitHub repo for details on the project itself.

Configuration

The amp-subscriptions-google is configured as part of amp-subscriptions configuration.

<head> ... <script async custom-element="amp-subscriptions" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-subscriptions-0.1.js" ></script> <script async custom-element="amp-subscriptions-google" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-subscriptions-google-0.1.js" ></script> <script type="application/json" id="amp-subscriptions"> { "services": [ { // Local service configuration }, { "serviceId": "subscribe.google.com" } ] } </script> </head> 

Real Time Config (rtc)

Real Time Config allows the publisher to specify the sku or sku's for a subscribe button at page load time. The allows user specific offers, time limited offers etc.

To enable rtc add a skuMapUrl to the subscribe.google.com service.

<script type="application/json" id="amp-subscriptions"> { "services": [ { // Local service configuration }, { "serviceId": "subscribe.google.com" "skuMapUrl": "https://example.com/sky/map/endpoint" } ] } </script> 

The skuMapUrl is called on page load. It should be a map of element id's and configurations:

{ "subscribe.google.com": { // button that goes straight to purchase flow "elementId": { "sku": "sku" }, // button that launches an offer carousel "anotherElementId": { "carouselOptions": { "skus": ["basic", "premium_monthly"], } } } } 

Each configuration corresponds to the sku or skus associated with the button.

To enable a button for rtc add the subscriptions-google-rtc attribute. If this attribute is present the button will be disabled until the skuMapUrl request is completed. Once the skuMap is resolved the subscriptions-google-rtc attribute will be removed and subscriptions-google-rtc-set attribute added. These attributes may be used for CSS styling, however it is recommended that the button not be hidden if it will cause a page re-layout when displayed.

The skuMapUrl can be the same as the local service auth url as the JSON objects do not conflict. If the auth url is cacheable (max-age=1 is sufficient) this will allow in a single request to the server to resove authentication and mapping.

Entitlements pingback

As described in amp-subscriptions, if a pingbackUrl is specified by the local service, the entitlements response returned by the "winning" service will be sent to the pingbackUrl via a POST request.

If subscribe.google.com is the "winning" service, the request to the pingbackUrl will be of the following format:

{ "raw":"...", "source":"google", "service":"subscribe.google.com", "granted":true, "grantReason":"SUBSCRIBER", "data":{ "source":"google", "products":[ ... ], "subscriptionToken":"..." } } 

Where data matches the entitlements response format.
