additional flags to enable on your zcash.conf
file

and rpcport
are configured , the same should me made available in the explorer config.

Additional requirement for Viewing Key Support.
Viewing Key feature is powered by adityapk00's zecwallet-light-cli.
we spin up a Docker container that runs zecwallet-light-cli, pull the logs from the container and broadcast the logs and Tx info ( after some processing ) to the explorer. The container will be deleted after the transactions are sent to the explorer.
this feature has rate limits and currently it's hardcoded to 10 Concurrent VK imports.
