Supported methods
Accoil supports the following Segment methods, which map directly to Accoil’s API:
Identify
Identify calls recognize individual users and their attributes.
Example Call:
analytics.identify('userId123', {
email: 'user@example.com',
name: 'John Doe',
createdAt: '2023-05-12T08:00:00Z' // ISO 8601 or Unix timestamp format
});
Group
Group calls link users to accounts and records account-level attributes.
Example Call:
analytics.group('accountId123', {
name: 'Example Company',
createdAt: '2021-03-15T09:00:00Z', // ISO 8601 or Unix timestamp format
mrr: 3000,
status: 'active'
});
Track
Track calls record specific user actions, like “Login” or “Purchase”.
Use the “Noun_Verb” format to name your events, for example, Report Created or Purchase Completed.
Example Call:
analytics.track('Purchase Completed', {
item: 'Book',
price: 25.00
});
Page and Screen
Page and Screen calls convert navigation calls into Track events to monitor user interactions within your product.
Example Calls:
analytics.page('Home Page');
analytics.screen('Dashboard');
Key Notes
- Created At Date: Ensure the
createdAtfield for users and accounts is in ISO 8601 or Unix timestamp format for accurate tenure tracking. - Trait Handling: Accoil stores traits sent with Identify and Group calls, but traits passed with Track calls are not stored. Only event names and counts are recorded.
- Event Aggregation: Accoil simplifies event tracking by aggregating daily event counts.
- Page and Screen Calls: These calls are automatically converted into Track events for easier monitoring of user navigation.
