Identify

The identify call lets you add a new user or update an existing user with the latest information like the user’s dripId,email,name, etc.

If you provide the Campaign ID in the dashboard while setting up the destination, RudderStack will subscribe every user to this campaign ID by default. Alternatively, you can also send the information via the identify call using externalId as shown in the code snippet below. Note that this takes a higher precedence than the campaign ID provided in the RudderStack dashboard.

info
Either the dripId or email is required for the identify call. If you are creating a user, then you must provide the email. In case of updating a user, you can provide either the assigned dripId or email.

A sample identify call is as shown below:

rudderanalytics.identify(
  "user123",
  {
    email: "sampleuser@testmail.com",
    firstName: "Demo",
    lastName: "Example",
    tags: ["tag1", "tag2"],
    customFields: {
      filter1: "filterval1",
    },
  },
  {
    externalId: [
      {
        type: "dripCampaignId",
        id: "<your campaign id>",
      },
      {
        type: "dripId",
        id: "<user's drip id>",
      },
    ],
  }
)

Identify Mapping

The following table includes all fields in identify call with their relative mapping to the Drip fields:

info

Note that:

  • If customFields is not present, RudderStack extracts all fields apart from the ones mentioned in the table above and constructs a customFields object.
  • If customFields is present and there are other fields apart from the ones mentioned in the table, RudderStack ignores them.
  • The customFields object’s value must not exceed 1000 characters and must contain only letters, numbers, and underscores. Otherwise, RudderStack drops its value.
  • The address field should be an object.

When you provide the Campaign ID, you can also send some extra fields with the call.

The following table lists all supported fields for the campaign call:

RudderStack FieldDrip Field
doubleOptindouble_optin
startingEmailIndexstarting_email_index
reactivateIfRemovedreactivate_if_removed
info
For more information on using these fields, refer to the Drip documentation.

Track

The track call lets you record the user events and the information associated with them, like action, occurred_at, and customFields. Either id or email must be provided in this call.

The User Creation Mode option in the RudderStack dashboard lets you create a user with their email if they don’t already exist. If you don’t want new users to be created, disable this option.

warning
If the dripId is provided in the call, then new users will not be created even if the User Creation Mode option is enabled in the RudderStack dashboard.

A sample track call is as shown below:

rudderanalytics.track(
  "Event Name",
  {
    email: "sampleuser@testmail.com",
    affiliation: "custom_store",
    order_id: "123456",
    products: [
      {
        name: "product_name",
        price: 10.0,
      },
    ],
  },
  {
    externalId: [
      {
        type: "dripId",
        id: "<user's drip id>",
      },
    ],
  }
)

  • order updated
  • order completed
  • order refunded
