Overview

This topic explains the different event kinds for Twilio Segment Data Export destinations. The JSON schemas for Twilio Segment are formatted differently than LaunchDarkly’s. The index, identify, and summary event kinds are not available in Twilio Segment Data Export destinations, and other events are exported with different labels. To learn more about the Twilio Segment destination, read Twilio’s Segment documentation. There are four different event kinds exported to Twilio Segment. They are:
  • Feature events: This event is emitted when a feature flag is evaluated.
  • Click events: This event is emitted when an end user clicks on a CSS selector for which they have configured a metric in an experiment.
  • Page view events: This event is emitted when an end user loads a page associated with an experiment metrics.
  • Custom events: This event is emitted when LaunchDarkly SDK sends a custom event. LaunchDarkly no longer supports alias events for SDKs upgraded to contexts. LaunchDarkly continues to support sending and receiving alias events for older SDK versions. For a list of SDKs that still support alias events, read Aliasing users.

Additional properties

Twilio Segment events include additional information about different LaunchDarkly properties. These properties are included in all event kinds. These properties are: | Property name
Property details
| --- | | event | The event kind. This field maps onto Twilio Segment’s event field. | | environment | The LaunchDarkly environment ID, also called the client-side ID, corresponding to the event. | | project | The LaunchDarkly project key corresponding to the event. | | key | The flag key corresponding to the event. In the case of Experimentation events, this will be the metric key for the experiment. | | userId | The key of the user object or user context kind associated with the emitted event. For example, in client-side SDKs, this is the key of the currently identified user. This field maps onto Twilio Segment’s userId field. | | contextKeys | An object of contextKind: contextKey pairs for each context kind in the event. |

Feature events

This table explains feature event properties: | Property name
Description
| --- | | value | The value of the evaluated flag. | | flagVersion | The version of the evaluated flag. | | inExperiment | true if this flag evaluation was allocated to an experiment.
To learn more, read Allocating experiment audiences](/home/experimentation/allocation). | | reasonKind | The evaluation reason for the flag.

To learn more, read Flag prerequisites. | | default | Indicates whether the flag value was the result of the default variation being evaluated. | | variation | The variation of the flag requested. The SDK stores flag variation values in an array. This value corresponds to the index of the variation the array. Boolean flags show as 0 or 1 for true and false. For other flags, the array index starts at 0 for their different variations. | | variationName | The evaluated variation’s name, if it exists. If the evaluated variation doesn’t have a name, this field doesn’t appear. |
