Transferring Website Behavior Data via REST API

To transfer website data to our CDP, you need to install the web tracking script on your site. After, you’ll be able to send the user behavior data and use it to create personalized product recommendations for the site and for your emails.

You can send events through one of the methods:

Using eS.JS;
Using REST API.

Important!

When setting up tracking via the REST API, the recommendations functionality on the site will not be available, in this case, you need to use the option of calling eS.JS functions

In this article, we will explain how to use the second method.

Request headers

POST / HTTP/1.1

Host: https://tracker.esputnik.com/api/v2

Content-type: application/json

Response status code is 204: No authorization is required.
