Bluedot is a location platform that provides an accurate and simple geofencing platform for apps. After integrating the Bluedot SDK and setting geofences, customer’s can create personalised location-based experiences for their users.
Segment provides the customer data infrastructure that helps businesses put their customers first. Using Segment, companies can collect, unify and connect their first-party data to over 200 marketing, analytics and data warehouse tools.
With this integration, Bluedot’s first-party, accurate, and privacy-compliant location data can be connected and utilised across all of the platforms and apps supported by Segment.
Before beginning the integration, please ensure you have an active customer account with Bluedot & Segment.
1. Decide on the custom data you’ll be passing from the Bluedot Events to Segment:
a. Custom Event Metadata (max. 20)
b. Custom Zone Data (max. 20)
2. Integrate the Bluedot SDK within your mobile app:
a. Android integration guide
b. iOS integration guide
3. Add a Bluedot source to your Segment workspace from the Sources Catalog.
4. Add your Segment writeKey
via the Integrations > Segment section in Canvas.
To send events to Segment, you’ll need to include the Segment’s userId
in the Custom Event Metadata of the Bluedot event. Make sure to name the property segment_userId
.
An example will be:
"segment_userId": "<YOUR SEGMENT USER ID>"
