Supported methods

Inflection supports the following methods, as specified in the Segment Spec.

Identify

Send Identify calls to Identify a user. The traits should have the email trait to be processed. All the other reserved traits are optional, but will be used to populate Person DB if available. If a Data Warehouse is set to sync Person DB data to Inflection, the Identify call will be used only to map the userId to the person.id on Inflection app. For example:

analytics.identify('userId123', {
  email: 'john.doe@example.com'
});

Track

Send Track calls to be added to Product Activity on Inflection App. For example:

analytics.track('Login Button Clicked')

Group

Send Group calls to tie a user to an org. There are two IDs that are relevant in a group call: the userId, which belongs and refers to the user, and the groupId, which belongs and refers to the specific group. A user can belong to multiple groups, each associated with a different groupId, but the user will have only one userId linked to each of these different groups.

 analytics.group("0e8c78ea9d97a7b8185e8632", {
name: "Initech",
industry: "Technology",
employees: 329,
plan: "enterprise",
"total billed": 830
});

Settings

Segment lets you change these destination settings from the Segment app without having to touch any code.
