Event Ingestion with Datablit

This doc will guide you how to ingest customer data from source to Datablit server.

Step-by-Step Setup

1. Create DataBlit Account

Signup and get access to the DataBlit Console

2. Create or Select an Existing Project

A project is basically a core product or platform developed and managed by a company as a distinct business operational unit. You can create a new project or work on an existing project if you are adding a new data source.

3. Setup Data Sources

Click on + Source button, provide source configuration and description to create a new Source.

We recommend creating separate sources for different applications:

đŸ“± Source Configuration Examples

A

Android App → Source: "app-android"

I
iOS App → Source: "app-ios"
W
Website → Source: "app-web"

4. Copy API Key

Once the source is created, you will get the API Key in the source table. This key is essential for authenticating your SDK. We recommend keeping your source key secure and never expose it in client-side code for better security.

Security Note: Keep your API Key secure and never expose it in client-side code that's publicly accessible.

5. Integrate Datablit SDK

Now you can collect customer data by implementing Datablit’s tracking SDK as your Source. Install SDK and create separate sources for different applications-

Sources for collecting data

Datablit SDK will track customer events and upload them in batches after every 1 second. This limits the number of network calls made and helps you to access data in real-time.

5. Configure Events

Set up events you want to track in your codebase. Custom Event Tracking You can set up, tie extra pieces of information and actions to the events you track using Datablit SDK. We recommend sending properties specific to your business requirements whenever possible, providing you a complete picture of what your users are doing.

5. Test your SDK Integration

Send test events to verify the feasibility of your code and sdk integration. You can test API calls immediately and test events will appear in your dashboard as real data.
