Statsig helps companies safely A/B test features in production before rolling them out, avoiding product debates and costly mistakes when shipping out new features. Statsig automates the grunt work so that your A/B tests run automatically, and you always get the latest insights into how your product features are performing.

RudderStack supports Statsig as a destination to which you can send real-time event data for efficient A/B testing.

Identify

The identify call lets you identify a visiting user and associate them to their actions. It also lets you record the traits about them like their name, email address, etc.

A sample identify call is as shown:

Copy
rudderanalytics.identify("1hKOmRA4GRlm", {
  name: "Alex Keener",
  email: "alex@example.com",
})

Retrieving the userId

To get the userId associated with an identified user, you can use the getUserId() method as shown:

Copy
rudderanalytics.getUserId();

Retrieving the anonymousId

An anonymous ID (anonymousId) is an autogenerated UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) that is assigned to each unique, unidentified visitor coming to your website.

You can retrieve the anonymousId of any visitor by running the getAnonymousId() method, as shown:

Copy
rudderanalytics.getAnonymousId();

Page

The page call lets you record your website's page views with any additional relevant information about the viewed page.

A sample page call is shown below:

Copy
rudderanalytics.page("Home")

Track

The track call lets you record the user events, that is, the actions your users perform, along with any properties associated with these actions.

A sample track call is as shown:

Copy
rudderanalytics.track("Product Reviewed", {
  review_id: "12345",
  product_id: "123",
  rating: 4.0,
  review_body: "Good product."
})

Screen

The screen call lets you record whenever a user views their mobile screen, with any additional relevant information about the viewed screen.

A sample screen call sent via the iOS SDK is shown below:

Copy
[[RSClient sharedInstance] screen:@"Main"
                properties:@{@"prop_key" : @"prop_value"}];

Group

The group call allows you to link an identified user with a group, such as a company, organization, or an account. It also lets you record any custom traits associated with that group, for example, the name of the company, number of employees, etc.

A sample group call is shown below:

Copy
rudderanalytics.group("12345", {
  name: "MyGroup",
  industry: "IT",
  employees: 450,
  plan: "basic"
})

The alias call lets you merge different identities of a known user.

A sample alias call is as shown:
