Track mobile screenviews

​

Sends a screen view event for mobile devices. Screen events help you understand the screens that people use in your app. You should send a screen call whenever a user requests a page of your app.

Headers
  • X-Strict-Mode
    enum
    const:  
    1

    When set to 1, enables strict validation that returns proper HTTP error codes (400/401) for validation failures. When not set or set to any other value, the API operates in permissive mode, logging errors but returning HTTP 200. Learn more

    values
    • 1
Body
application/json
      • userId
        Type: string
        required

        The unique identifier for a person. This value should be unique across systems, so you recognize the same person in your sources and destinations.

      • context
        Type: object · Mobile

        A dictionary of context about a source call/event, like the user’s IP address or locale. Context is automatically collected by our source libraries.

      • integrations
        Type: object

        Contains a list of booleans indicating the integrations that are enabled (true) or disabled (false). By default, all integrations are enabled (returning an empty object). Set "All": false to reverse this behavior.

      • messageId
        Type: string

        A unique identifier for a Data Pipelines call, ensuring that each individual event is unique. This is set by Customer.io

      • name
        Type: string

        The name of the screen the person visited.

      • originalTimestamp
        Type: stringFormat: date-time

        In general, you can use timestamp rather than this field if you want to back-date events. This is the timestamp on the client device you invoke a call or the timestamp value you manually passed in a server-side library call.

      • properties
        Type: object

        Additional properties for your screen.

      • sentAt
        Type: stringFormat: date-time

        The ISO-8601 timestamp when a library sends an event to Data Pipelines.

      • timestamp
        Type: stringFormat: date-time

        The ISO-8601 timestamp when the event originally took place. This is mostly useful when you backfill past events. If you're not backfilling data, you can leave this field empty and we'll use the current time or server time.
