#direct_user_request
defdirect_user_request()->::Boolean
Returns
(::Boolean) — Optional. Indicates if the request is made directly from the end user
in which case the user_agent and ip_address fields can be populated
from the HTTP request. This should not be set when using the javascript
pixel. This flag should be set only if the API request is made directly
from the end user such as a mobile app (and not if a gateway or a server is
processing and pushing the user events).
#direct_user_request=
defdirect_user_request=(value)->::Boolean
Parameter
value (::Boolean) — Optional. Indicates if the request is made directly from the end user
in which case the user_agent and ip_address fields can be populated
from the HTTP request. This should not be set when using the javascript
pixel. This flag should be set only if the API request is made directly
from the end user such as a mobile app (and not if a gateway or a server is
processing and pushing the user events).

#ip_address
defip_address()->::String
Returns
(::String) — Optional. IP address of the user. This could be either IPv4 (e.g. 104.133.9.80) or
IPv6 (e.g. 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334). This should not be
set when using the javascript pixel or if direct_user_request is set.
Used to extract location information for personalization.
#ip_address=
defip_address=(value)->::String
Parameter
value (::String) — Optional. IP address of the user. This could be either IPv4 (e.g. 104.133.9.80) or
IPv6 (e.g. 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e:0370:7334). This should not be

#user_agent
defuser_agent()->::String
Returns
(::String) — Optional. User agent as included in the HTTP header. UTF-8 encoded string
with a length limit of 1 KiB.
This should not be set when using the JavaScript pixel or if
directUserRequest is set.
#user_agent=
defuser_agent=(value)->::String
Parameter
value (::String) — Optional. User agent as included in the HTTP header. UTF-8 encoded string
with a length limit of 1 KiB.
This should not be set when using the JavaScript pixel or if
directUserRequest is set.
Returns
(::String) — Optional. User agent as included in the HTTP header. UTF-8 encoded string
with a length limit of 1 KiB.

directUserRequest is set.
#user_id
defuser_id()->::String
Returns
(::String) — Optional. Unique identifier for logged-in user with a length limit of 128
bytes. Required only for logged-in users.
#user_id=
defuser_id=(value)->::String
Parameter
value (::String) — Optional. Unique identifier for logged-in user with a length limit of 128
bytes. Required only for logged-in users.
Returns
(::String) — Optional. Unique identifier for logged-in user with a length limit of 128
bytes. Required only for logged-in users.
#visitor_id
defvisitor_id()->::String
Returns
(::String) — Required. A unique identifier for tracking visitors with a length limit of
128 bytes.
For example, this could be implemented with a http cookie, which should be
able to uniquely identify a visitor on a single device. This unique
identifier should not change if the visitor log in/out of the website.
Maximum length 128 bytes. Cannot be empty.
