Send CANDDi 'properties' from your database

When a User has logged into your website, it can be useful to send additional properties from your database through to CANDDi, for example: whether the user is a customer, or their user ID from your database.


NOTE: This is a technical article for developers


You need to trigger a tracking call to CANDDi after the window has loaded. Write the following code into the body of the first page generated after the user has logged in.


NOTE: This assumes you are using jQuery to use $( document ).ready


`$( document ).ready(function() {

 if(window.canddi) {

   var objTags = {

     "property1":1,

     "property2":2

     ... `


         [tag] : [score //typically score = 1 but you can use other numbers here]


`   };  

   window.canddi.sendEvent('#!-1',objTags,false,"TagContact");

 }

});`


Once the page has loaded then the values in ‘property1’ will be transmitted back to CANDDi and stored against the contact.
