Send Feature Experimentation Event to Heap

Heap is a Product Analytics company that provides analytics infrastructure and helps its clients focus on discovering insights and taking action, rather than writing tracking code.

The Heap Analytics integration allows you to send the Feature Experimentation (FE&R) campaign data to your Heap Analytics project.

Visitor ID requirement

To make this integration work, you must use a valid user ID from Heap when calling the Decision API.

To do:

• Create the connector before sending hits • Ensure Heap has a known user_id to associate events with the correct profile • Retrieve Heap’s existing user ID using: heap.getUserId() • It is strongly recommended to use Heap’s auto-generated ID • If you prefer to use your own custom ID, register it with: heap.identify("your_custom_user_id") • Call the Decision API with this same visitor ID; otherwise, the hit won’t be sent to the third party

Visitor ID Requirement

  1. The connector must be created before sending hits.

  2. Heap requires a known user_id to associate events with the correct user profile.

  3. Retrieve the existing user ID via:

    heap.getUserId()

  4. It’s strongly recommended to use Heap’s own generated ID. If you choose to create your own, register it using:

    heap.identify("your_custom_user_id")

    This ensures Heap can match the user’s identity across events.
