iOS SDK¶
Segmentify iOS SDK for sending visitor behavior and rendering product recommendations.
Important warning
ProductView, Basket Add/Remove, View Basket, Purchase and Click events must match productId.
Introduction¶
This tutorial provides a very simple and quick introduction to the Segmentify integration for iOS applications by walking you through details of different events.
To see sample application using iOS SDK, please check iOS SDK repository.
Integration¶
This guide will help you to integrate different events (visitor actions) and also product recommendations. Integration can be divided into following steps:
- Event Types
- Event/Request Details
- Response Details
- User & Session Management
- Common Parameters
- Page View
- Product View
- Basket Operations
- Checkout Operations
- User/Visitor Operations
- Custom Event
- Interaction
- Search
Event Types¶
Segmentify uses different event types for different visitor actions. You can define following events by using Segmentify iOS SDK:
| Event | Description | Event Name |
|---|---|---|
| Page | It is sent when a visitor views a page | PAGE_VIEW |
| Product | It is sent when a visitor views a product | PRODUCT_VIEW |
| Basket | It is sent when a visitor makes a basket action (add product to basket or remove product from basket) | BASKET_OPERATIONS |
| Checkout | It is sent when a visitor makes a checkout action (views basket, enter customer information, enter payment information, finishes purchase) | CHECKOUT |
| User | It is sent when a visitor makes a user action or use this event to update information about customers | USER_OPERATIONS |
| Custom | It is sent when to identify any visitor action that has no predefined value in Segmentify | CUSTOM_EVENT |
| Interaction | It is sent when a visitor makes an interaction like click, view a widget, submit, etc. | INTERACTION |
| Search | It is sent when a visitor makes a search action like clicking a search input or typing words on the search input | SEARCH |
API Errors¶
If your request body has a field statusCode, then you have an error in your request. Details of errors are given in below table:
| Error Code | Description |
|---|---|
| NO_API_KEY | Your request doesn't have an apiKey parameter, please provide apiKey parameter at the request with your account's unique api key. |
| NO_ACCOUNT | Given api key is not associated with a Segmentify account, please check your api key value. |
| UNVERIFIED_ACCOUNT | Account associated with api key is not a verified account. To verify your account, please check your email and verify it. |
| FAILED_ACCOUNT | Account associated with api key is not an active account. Please contact with support team to re-activate your account. |
| NO_DOMAIN_APIKEY_MATCH | Each Segmentify account is associated with a domain. Please check your domain and provide at requests with header Origin. Check Reqeust Details for required headers. |
| UNVERIFIED_ACCOUNT | Account associated with api key is not a verified account. To verify your account, please check your email and verify it. |
| NO_EVENT | There is no events inside request body. You should add at least one event with each request. |
| NO_USERID | Each Segmentify event should have an userId parameter, and at least one event in the request lacks this parameter. |
| NO_SESSIONID | Each Segmentify event should have an sessionId parameter, and at least one event in the request lacks this parameter. |
| BAD_INPUT | Your request body should be a json array of Segmentify events. It is malformed, please check your json object for validity. |
Common Parameters¶
Every event in Segmentify shares common parameters and you can add these parameters to all events that will be defined later.
Details of common parameters for events are given below:
| Name | Type | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Event (name) |
Mandatory | Name of the event. Use one name from Event Types | 'PAGE_VIEW' or 'CHECKOUT' |

Basic Configuration¶
Segmentify accounts have two important system variables used in integration: APP KEY and Data Center. You can access these values from Integrations menu of Segmentify Panel:
| System Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| App Key | unique Segmentify key value to send events |
| Data Center | data center end point to send Segmentify events |
To access Integrations menu of Segmentify Panel, please login to your Segmentify account and navigate to
Settings > Integrations.
Segmentify uses podfile for integration into the project. Inside your Xcode project's root folder run the following commands.
- Run pod init to create an empty pod file
- Run pod install to add Cocoapods to your project
- Run open YourProject.xcworkspace to your new Xcode project's workspace.
After, import Segmentify must be defined in AppDelegate.swift and in required classes..
Segmentify iOS SDK requires App key, Subdomain and Data Center URL to establish a connection.
Define configuration method in AppDelegate.swift file.
Example configuration is given below:
SegmentifyManager.config(
appkey: “XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX”,
dataCenterUrl: “https://xxx.segmentify.com“,
subDomain: “example.com”
)
If you do not want console log to be visible, define it as false.
let _ = SegmentifyManager.logStatus(isVisible: true)
You can use the following command to set new configs
SegmentifyManager.setConfig(apiKey: newApiKey, dataCenterUrl: newDataCenterUrl, subDomain: newDomain)
An empty array of type RecommendationModel is required where the products to be suggested are stored within any view controller.
Example;
var recommendations : [RecommendationModel] = []
The response will be stored in this array as the response.
Basic response method for spesific event;
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager(
appKey: appKey,
dataCenterUrl: dataCenterUrl,
subDomain: subDomain).setPageViewEvent(
segmentifyObject: obj,
callback: { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//for example to process on recommendations
self.createProducts(recommendations: self.recommendations)
})
Callback returns as a one-dimensional array. Optional operation on the array can be done to show it in the UI. Widget View is used when the page's widget is actually displayed. Related title: Interaction
func createProducts(recommendations : [RecommendationModel]) {
for recObj in recommendations {
if recObj.instanceId == "YOUR_CAMPAIGN_INSTANCE_ID" {
// to show details of the products in the UI
self.setProductInfos(products: recObj.products!)
}
}
}
Page View¶
When a visitor views a view controller, this event should be sent.
Parameters can be sent with page view event is given below (you can also add common parameters):
| Name | Type | Requirement | Description | Example |

An example Page View request is given below:
//define page view object
let obj = PageModel()
obj.category = "Home Page"
//send page view request
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: obj) {
(response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;

Basket Operations¶
Segmentify uses basket operations as intermediary step for measuring success of recommendations throughout the conversion funnel. Basket success rate is also reported by Trendify and Bannerify to show individual performance of products, categories, brands and banners.
Basket operations are similar to page view and product view. There are two possible steps in a basket operation these are: add product to basket, remove product from basket.
Add Product to Basket¶
When a visitor adds a product to basket/cart, this event should be sent.
An example request is given below:
//Define basket operations model
let addBasketObj = BasketOperationsModel()
addBasketObj.step = "add"
addBasketObj.productId = "25800400265"
addBasketObj.quantity = "2"
addBasketObj.price = 358
//Send add to basket event
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendAddOrRemoveBasket(segmentifyObject: addBasketObj)
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;
//Send add to basket event
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendAddOrRemoveBasket(basketStep : "add", productID : "25800400265", quantity : 2,price : 358)
Remove Product from Basket¶
When a visitor removes a product from basket/cart, this event should be sent.
An example request is given below:
//Define basket operations model
let removeBasketObj = BasketOperationsModel()
removeBasketObj.productId = "25799860937"
removeBasketObj.price = 578
removeBasketObj.quantity = "1"
removeBasketObj.step = "remove"
//Send remove from basket request
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendAddOrRemoveBasket(segmentifyObject: obj)
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;
//Send add to basket event
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendAddOrRemoveBasket(basketStep : "remove", productID : "25800400265", quantity : 2,price : 358)
Basket Event Parameters¶
Parameters can be sent with basket operations event is given below (you can also add common parameters):

String | Optional | Currency of product price. Must be in Short Format. Currency of the product is used if not given | 'EUR' |
| Quantity | String | Optional | Number of items added to basket at this operation. If not given, it is assumed 1. You can also use decimals for not integer quantities like 2.3 | 1 |
Checkout Operations¶
Segmentify uses checkout operations to measure success of recommendations throughout the conversion funnel. Checkout information and steps are also used in email & personalization campaigns. Campaign, Trendify, Bannerify and Sales reports are feed from checkout information. It is essential for both analyitcs and recommendation capabilities to function properly.
Segmentify track four different steps of checkout operation:
| Operation | Step | Details |
|---|---|---|
| View Basket | basket | When customer views the basket page. Some online stores has dedicated basket pages, others have basket detail pop-ups. For both use cases we recommend you to send checkout event with basket details. To see details, please click |
| Customer Information | customer | This is the second step on checkout funnel. When customer is entering his personal information details, this event should be send to Segmentify. To see details, please click |
| Payment Information | payment | When customer is on payment stage of checkout funnel, you should send this event to Segmentify.To see details, please click |
| Purchase/Success | purchase | Final step of checkout funnel is purchase and Segmentify uses this step as success indicator for recommendations. Reports for campaigns (both recommendation and engagement), sales analysis and real-time analtyics are dependent to this event and shoukd be implemented with great care. To see details, please click |
View Basket¶
View Basket is the first step of checkout funnel, and followed by Customer Information.
When a visitor views his/her basket/cart, this event should be sent with basket details.
An example request is given below:
//START Page view request
let pageObj = PageModel()
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: pageObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
}
//END Page view request
//START Basket View Request
var productsArray = [Any]()
let firstProduct = ["price":"78","productId":"25799809929","quantity":"1"]
productsArray.append(firstProduct)
let checkoutObj = CheckoutModel()
checkoutObj.productList = productsArray
checkoutObj.totalPrice = 78
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendViewBasket(segmentifyObject: checkoutObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Basket View Request
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;
//START Page view request
let pageObj = PageModel()
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: pageObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
}
//END Page view request
//START Basket View Request
var productsArray = [Any]()
let firstProduct = ["price":"78","productId":"25799809929","quantity":"1"]
productsArray.append(firstProduct)
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendViewBasket(totalPrice: 78, productList: productsArray) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Basket View Request
Customer Information¶
Customer Information is the second step of checkout funnel, and preceeded by View Basket & followed by Payment Information.
When a visitor enters customer information as second step of checkout funnel, this event should be sent with basket details.
An example request is given below:
//START Page view request
let pageObj = PageModel()
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: pageObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
}
//END Page view request
//START Customer information request
var productsArray = [Any]()
let firstProduct = ["price":"78","productId":"25799809929","quantity":"1"]
productsArray.append(firstProduct)
let custInfObj = CheckoutModel()
custInfObj.productList = productsArray
custInfObj.totalPrice = 78
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendCustomerInformation(segmentifyObject: custInfObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Customer information request
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;
//START Page view request
let pageObj = PageModel()
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: pageObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
}
//END Page view request
//START Customer information request
var productsArray = [Any]()
let firstProduct = ["price":"78","productId":"25799809929","quantity":"1"]
productsArray.append(firstProduct)
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendCustomerInformation(totalPrice: 78, productList: productsArray) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Customer information request
Please refer to View Basket Step of Checkout for basket products detail and use the same information throughout the purchase funnel by only changing step information.
Payment Information¶
Payment Information is the third step of checkout funnel, and preceeded by Payment Information & followed by Purchase/Success.
When a visitor enters payment information as third step of checkout funnel, this event should be sent with basket details.
An example request is given below:
//START Page view request
let pageObj = PageModel()
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendPageView(segmentifyObject: pageObj) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
}
//END Page view request

let firstProduct = ["price":"78","productId":"25799809929","quantity":"1"]
//append product to example array
productsArray.append(firstProduct)
//define a variable type of CheckoutModel
let paymentInf = CheckoutModel()
paymentInf.totalPrice = 78
paymentInf.productList = productsArray
//payment information request
SegmentifyManager.sharedManager().sendViewBasket(segmentifyObject: paymentInf) { (response: [RecommendationModel]) in
self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Payment information request
An example of parameterized use as an alternative;

self.recommendations = response
//operations about recommendations
}
//END Payment information request
Please refer to View Basket Step of Checkout for basket products detail and use the same information throughout the purchase funnel by only changing step information.
Purchase/Success¶
Purchase/Success is the fourth and final step of checkout funnel, and preceeded by Payment Information.
When a visitor finalizes a purchase, this event should be sent with basket details.
An example request is given below:
//START Page View
let pageViewObj = PageModel()
