Identify signed-in users

Tie Datasense visitors to your own user IDs, so the Visitors page shows names, emails and plans and merges a user's devices.

By default every visitor is anonymous, with a generated name and avatar. Once someone signs in, tell Datasense who they are:

js
// Once the user is signed in (calling it on every page load is fine)
window.datasense?.("identify", user.id, {
  name: user.name,
  email: user.email,
  plan: user.plan, // any other traits: strings, numbers or booleans
})

// On sign-out, so the next person on this device starts fresh
window.datasense?.("reset")

What it does

  • The visitor's profile shows the name, email and traits you sent.
  • Every device identified with the same user ID merges into one person, with one timeline.
  • You can search visitors by name, email or user ID.

Rules

  • User IDs are cut at 200 characters. Up to 20 traits, each a string, number or boolean.
  • Call reset on sign-out so the next person on a shared device starts fresh (cookie script only).
  • This sends personal data: mention it in your privacy policy and send only what you need.
  • Through the API and MCP, names and emails need the visitors:details permission.
