mParticle provides an HTTP-based Pixel Service that can be used to collect data using a simple GET request.
This document assumes that you have already created a Web SDK Input. Please follow the instructions on our Web SDK Quickstart Guide to obtain a Web SDK API Key.
All requests to the pixel service must be made to the following url: https://pixels.mparticle.com/v1/{{web_api_key}}/Pixel, followed by URL Encoded Query Parameters for event attributes. For example:
https://pixels.mparticle.com/v1/{{web_api_key}}/Pixel?ct={{timestampMs}}&dbg=true&n=Custom%20Pixel%20Event&dt=AppEvent&et=UnknownTo send data to the Pixel service, you can make requests via any HTTP client using your Web API Key access credentials.
async function sendPixel() {
const pixelServiceURL = `https://pixels.mparticle.com/v1/${apiKey}/Pixel`;
const currentTime = new Date().getTime();
const eventName = "My Custom Event";
const messageType: "AppEvent";
const eventType: "Navigation";
const queryParams = `n=${eventName}&dt=${messageType}&ct=${currentTime}&et={eventType}`;
try {
const response = await fetch(url + "?" + queryParams);
if (!response.ok) {
throw new Error(`Response status: ${response.status}`);
}
const json = await response.json();
console.log(json);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error.message);
}
