Identify

identify page anchor

Send Identify calls to identify users in Blitzllama. A trait in the Identify method maps to a single attribute in Blitzllama. For example:

1
analytics.identify('userId123', {
2
email: 'john.doe@example.com'
3
});

Segment sends Identify calls to Blitzllama as an identify event.

Send Group calls to associate users with existing or new cohorts in Blitzllama. For example:

1
analytics.group("0e8c78ea9d97a7b8185e8632", {
2
name: "Initech",
3
employees: 329
4
});

Segment sends Groups calls to Blitzllama as a group event.


You can send computed traits and audiences generated using Engage to this destination as a user property. To learn more about Engage, schedule a demo(link takes you to an external page).

For user-property destinations, an identify call is sent to the destination for each user being added and removed. The property name is the snake_cased version of the audience name, with a true/false value to indicate membership. For example, when a user first completes an order in the last 30 days, Engage sends an Identify call with the property order_completed_last_30days: true. When the user no longer satisfies this condition (for example, it's been more than 30 days since their last order), Engage sets that value to false.

When you first create an audience, Engage sends an Identify call for every user in that audience. Later audience syncs only send updates for users whose membership has changed since the last sync.
