Help Scout Secure Mode

Nope, but I’m just trying stuff. I contacted Help Scout, they said:

What you said is correct: in order to implement Secure Mode in Beacon, you’ll need to add a bit of code to generate a unique signature for each of your customers. But it needs to be generated on the server-side, so that your secret key is not exposed to your clients. I’m not too familiar with Bubble.io, but if they provide some sort of module to execute code on the server-side and print the results to the front-end, you should be able to integrate Secure Mode with it. Otherwise, I’m afraid it would not be possible to implement it reliably.

I then contacted Bubble about server sided action and they said:

Thanks for reaching out! Server-side code execution is certainly possible on Bubble. For more details on server-side action, see our user manual. Here’s also a relevant forum thread that might be helpful.

At this point, I’m just trying to make sense of it.
