Getting Started

1. From the Segment app Destinations page click “Gameball”.
2. Search for “Gameball” in the Destinations Catalog and confirm the Source you’d like to connect to.
3. Copy and paste in your “API Key” from your Account Integration page into your Segment Settings UI.

Segment’s track and identify events can only update the following properties in Gameball:

• email
• birthday
• name
• number
• gender

Identify

If you’re not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the identify method does. An example call would look like:

analytics.identify('userId123', {
  email: 'ahaddad@example.com',
  name: 'ahmad'
});

Segment sends identify() calls to Gameball as an identify event.

All events must contain a userID property.

Segment identify events create or update user/player object records in Gameball. If a record with the same userId exists, that record is updated; otherwise, Gameball creates a new customer record with that userId.

Track

If you’re not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the track method does. An example call would look like:

analytics.track('View Product')

Set up your custom track events in Gameball before you send them from Segment to Gameball.

All track events must contain a userID property.

Segment sends track calls to Gameball as a track event.
