   	"title": "Welcome | Initech",
    "keywords": "paper,comedy",
    "search": "schrute farms",
    "referrer": "https://google.com",
    "path": "/home",
    "browser": "Chrome",
    "url": "https://segment.com"
  }
})

Segment Field	Amberflo Field
messageId	uniqueId
userId or anonymousId (if userId is blank)	customerId
"page"	meterApiName
timestamp	meterTimeInMillis (epoch)

Identify

Identify creates a customer in Amberflo or updates if customer already exists. See Create Customer. Segment's userId is required for a customer in Amberflo. If userId is not set, then the customer will not be created in Amberflo and the identify event will be discarded.

analytics.identify({
  userId: "some_user_id", 
  traits: {
    "name": "John Doe",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "plan": "premium",
    "logins": 5,
    "phone": "650-769-3240",
    "username": "marakasina",
    "website": "example.com",
    "avatar": "https://s3.amazonaws.com/uifaces/faces/twitter/scottkclark/128.jpg"
  }
})

Mappings:

Segment Field	Amberflo Field
userId	customerId
traits.name	customerName
traits.email	customerEmail
traits (without the name and email)	traits

curl --request PUT \
     --url https://app.amberflo.io/customers \
