Usage
Creating a new instance
In order to start using the library, you first need to create an instance of the CIO class:
var cio = new CIO(siteId, apiKey);
Both the siteId
and apiKey
are required in order to create a Basic Authorization header, allowing us to associate the data with your account.
cio.identify(id, data)
Creating a person is as simple as identifying them with this call. You can also use this method to update a persons data.
cio.identify(1, {
first_name: 'Finn',
last_name: 'Mertens'
});
Options
- id: String (required)
- data: Object (optional)
cio.destroy(id)
This will delete a person from Customer.io.
cio.destroy(1);
Options
- id: String (required)
cio.track(id, data)
The track method will trigger events within Customer.io. When sending data along with your event, it is required to send a name key/value pair in you data object.
Simple event tracking
cio.track(1, { name: 'updated' });
Sending data with an event
cio.track(1, {
name: 'updated',
data: {
updated: true,
plan: 'free'
}
});
Options
- id: String (required)
- data: Object (required)
- name is a required key on the Object
- data is a required key if additional data is to be sent over with the event
cio.trackPageView(id, url)
Sending a page event includes sending over the customers id and the name of the page.
cio.trackPageView(1, '/home');
Options
- id: String (required)
- url: String (required)
Using Promises
Our library is built with RSVP.js - which means that every call is wrapped in a Promise object. Allowing you to chain your calls with then
, catch
and finally
.
var customerId = 1;
cio.identify(customerId, { first_name: 'Finn' }).
then(function(){
cio.track(customerId, {
name: 'updated',
data: {
updated: true,
plan: 'free'
}
});
});
