User identification & templating

Identify users across devices and use template variables in Kompassify content.

Tagging / identifying users

To tag the same user across multiple devices (e.g. to avoid showing the same product tour twice for the same user), use window.kommpassifyIdUser:

window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {
  if (event.data.TYPE === "KOMPASSIFY_BOOT_LOADER_IS_READY") {
    window.kommpassifyIdUser(userId);
  }
});

Parameters

Property	Type	Description
userId	String	An ID that is unique to each user.

Using template variables in Kompassify

You can use template variables in Kompassify tools (checklist, progress bar, multi-choice, etc.). For example in your content:

Hello {{myUserName}} ! How are you?

Then set the variable via the API (after the boot loader is ready):

window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {
  if (event.data.TYPE === "KOMPASSIFY_BOOT_LOADER_IS_READY") {
    window.kompassifyTemplating.addTemplateVariable('myUserName', 'John');
  }
});

The user will see: Hello John ! How are you?
