Identify User Client-Side API – Dynamic Yield Knowledge Base

Adds an identification method to the current user. The ID can be either an email or an external ID. The identification can be later used by advanced users to connect with their own Business Intelligence systems.

Syntax

DY.API('identify', {uid: '', type: ''})

Example:

DY.API('identify', {
  uid: 'sales@dynamicyield.com',
  type: 'email'
});

Example:

DY.API("identify", { 
  uid: "11251125",
  type: "external" // If not identifying by e-mail, pass the customer ID type (optional)
 });
