Identity Synchronization

Information on how to link your identifier for the subscriber to our subscriber profile.

Setting the Subscriber's External ID

Providing a unique User ID for your subscriber allows you to later interact with that subscriber via the API.

Once a subscriber's external ID has been set you may work with our team to set up bi-directional automated data syncs. The following use cases are common ways that publishers use the external ID via server-to-server requests:

• Sending notifications to individual subscribers programmatically

• Processing unsubscribe requests

• Adding and removing profile attributes and events to subscribers

Kotlin

PushSDK.UserProfile.externalId = "external-id"

Java

PushSDK.UserProfile.setExternalId("external-id");

You can also check to see if the subscriber is already tagged with an External ID:

Kotlin

val currentExternalId = PushSDK.UserProfile.externalId

Java

String currentExternalId = PushSDK.UserProfile.getExternalId();
