Freshpaint React Native SDK Reference

track

The track call can be used to manually send data to your destinations. See the docs on manually tracking events in Freshpaint for more information.

Freshpaint.track("Purchase", {"price": 500});

Argument

Type

Required

Description

Event Name

String

Yes

The name of the event you want to send to Freshpaint.

Properties

Object

No

A JSON object of properties you want to send along with the event.

identify

The identify call can used to attach user properties the current user. Destinations will then use that data to create a single profile for that user, even if data for that user comes from multiple places. See the identify docs for more information.

// Associate all future events sent from
// the library with the distinct_id ada.lovelace@example.com
Freshpaint.identify("ada.lovelace@example.com", { 
  "email": "ada.lovelace@example.com", 
  "name": "Ada Lovelace"
});‌

The properties argument is optional. If you want to only attach a unique identifier to the user, you can call identify like so:

Freshpaint.identify("ada.lovelace@example.com");

Likewise, the identifier is also optional. If you only want to attach properties to the user without attaching an identifier, you can perform a call like the following:

Freshpaint.identify({ 
  "email": "ada.lovelace@example.com", 
  "name": "Ada Lovelace"
});

Argument

Type

Required

Description

unique_id

String

No

A string that uniquely identifies a user (such as email address).

properties

Object

No

A JSON object of user properties to send to the destinations.

group

The group call will add the given user to a group and attach the provided properties to the group. The call

freshpaint.group("Google", {
  "plan": "enterprise",
  "sign-up-date": "04/01/2019"
});

will add the current user to the "Google" group and attach the provided properties to the group.

Argument

Type

Required

Description

unique_id

String

Yes

The ID of the group the user is being added to.

properties

Object

No

Properties to attach to the group.

reset

The reset call clears any local Freshpaint data attached to this user. This does not clear any local data for any of your destinations.

Freshpaint.reset();

addEventProperties

The addEventProperties call can be used to set data layer properties. Once a property is set through addEventProperties all events going forward will contain that property. The call

Freshpaint.addEventProperties({"pricing plan": "enterprise"});

will include the property pricing plan with the value enterprise until either the value is overwritten or you delete the property with removeEventProperty. addEventProperties should be used to set any properties that can change.

Argument

Type

Required

Description

properties

Object

Yes

An object of properties and values to attach to all events going forward.

addInitialEventProperties

The addInitialEventProperties call works the same way as addEventProperties except if a property is already set, addInitialEventProperties will not override it. This is useful for when you care about the first value of some property. As an example, the call

Freshpaint.addInitialEventProperties({"initial landing page": "/article"});

will set the value of the property initial landing page to /article. Even after calling addInitialEventProperties with a different of initial landing page the value of initial landing page will still be /article. addInitialEventProperties should be used to set properties that you never want to change.

Argument

Type

Required

Description

properties

Object

Yes

An object of properties and values to attach to all events going forward.

removeEventProperty

The removeEventProperty call can be used to remove data layer properties. Once used, freshpaint will no longer send the given property. As an example, the call:

Freshpaint.removeEventProperty('search term');

will delete the current search term property and Freshpaint will stop sending it going forward.

Argument

Type

Required

Description

property

String

Yes

The name of the property to remove.
