OptimizelyUserContext for the Go SDK
Describes the OptimizelyUserContext object for the Optimizely Feature Experimentation Go SDK, which lets you make flag decisions and track events for a user context.
The OptimizelyUserContext object lets you make flag decisions and track events for a user context that you created using the Create User Context method.
Additionally, if you have Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation configured, you can evaluate if your user would qualify for a real-time audience segment.
OptimizelyUserContext minimum SDK version
OptimizelyUserContext is supported on SDK v1.7.0 and higher.
Forced decision methods minimum SDK version
SetForcedDecision()
, GetForcedDecision()
, RemoveForcedDecision()
and RemoveAllForcedDecisions()
methods are supported on v1.8.0 and higher.
Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation minimum SDK version
FetchQualifiedSegments()
and IsQualifiedFor()
methods are supported on version 2.0.0 and higher.
OptimizelyUserContext definition
The following code shows the object definition for OptimizelyUserContext
:
type OptimizelyUserContext struct {
UserID string
Attributes map[string]interface{}
}
// GetOptimizely returns optimizely client instance for Optimizely user context
func (o OptimizelyUserContext) GetOptimizely() *OptimizelyClient
// GetUserID returns userID for Optimizely user context
func (o OptimizelyUserContext) GetUserID() string
// GetUserAttributes returns user attributes for Optimizely user context
func (o OptimizelyUserContext) GetUserAttributes() map[string]interface{}
// SetAttribute sets an attribute for a given key.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) SetAttribute(key string, value interface{})
// Decide returns a decision result for a given flag key and a user context, which contains
// all data required to deliver the flag or experiment.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) Decide(key string, options []decide.OptimizelyDecideOptions) OptimizelyDecision
// DecideAll returns a key-map of decision results for all active flag keys with options.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) DecideAll(options []decide.OptimizelyDecideOptions) map[string]OptimizelyDecision
// DecideForKeys returns a key-map of decision results for multiple flag keys and options.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) DecideForKeys(keys []string, options []decide.OptimizelyDecideOptions) map[string]OptimizelyDecision
// TrackEvent generates a conversion event with the given event key if it exists and queues it up to be sent to the Optimizely
// log endpoint for results processing.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) TrackEvent(eventKey string, eventTags map[string]interface{}) (err error)
// OptimizelyDecisionContext
type OptimizelyDecisionContext struct {
FlagKey string
RuleKey string
}
// OptimizelyForcedDecision
type OptimizelyForcedDecision struct {
VariationKey string
}
// SetForcedDecision sets the forced decision (variation key) for a given decision context (flag key and optional rule key).
// returns true if the forced decision has been set successfully.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) SetForcedDecision(context pkgDecision.OptimizelyDecisionContext, decision pkgDecision.OptimizelyForcedDecision) bool
// GetForcedDecision returns the forced decision for a given flag and an optional rule
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) GetForcedDecision(context pkgDecision.OptimizelyDecisionContext) (pkgDecision.OptimizelyForcedDecision, error)
// RemoveForcedDecision removes the forced decision for a given flag and an optional rule.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) RemoveForcedDecision(context pkgDecision.OptimizelyDecisionContext) bool
// RemoveAllForcedDecisions removes all forced decisions bound to this user context.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) RemoveAllForcedDecisions() bool
//
// The following methods require Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation.
// See note following the code sample.
//
// GetQualifiedSegments returns an array of segment names that the user is qualified for.
// The result of **FetchQualifiedSegments()** will be saved here.
// Can be nil if not properly updated with FetchQualifiedSegments().
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) GetQualifiedSegments() []string
// SetQualifiedSegments can read and write directly to the qualified segments array.
// This allows for bypassing the remote fetching process from ODP
// or for utilizing your own fetching service.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) SetQualifiedSegments(qualifiedSegments []string)
// FetchQualifiedSegments fetches all qualified segments for the user context.
// The segments fetched will be saved in the **qualifiedSegments** array
// and can be accessed any time.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) FetchQualifiedSegments(options []pkgOdpSegment.OptimizelySegmentOption) (success bool)
// FetchQualifiedSegmentsAsync fetches all qualified segments aysnchronously for the user context.
// This method will fetch segments in a separate go routine and invoke the provided
// callback when results are available.
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) FetchQualifiedSegmentsAsync(options []pkgOdpSegment.OptimizelySegmentOption, callback func(success bool))
// IsQualifiedFor returns true if the user is qualified for the given segment name
func (o *OptimizelyUserContext) IsQualifiedFor(segment string) bool
Note
You must first configure Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation to access the
GetQualifiedSegments()
,SetQualifiedSegments()
,FetchQualifiedSegments()
,FetchQualifiedSegmentsAsync()
, andIsQualifiedFor()
methods.
Properties
The following table shows attributes for the OptimizelyUserContext
object:
Attribute | Type | Comment |
---|---|---|
UserID | String | The ID of the user |
(optional) Attributes | Map | A map of custom key-value pairs specifying attributes for the user that are used for audience targeting. You can pass the map with the user ID when you create the user. |
Methods
The following table shows methods for the OptimizelyUserContext
object:
Method | Comment |
---|---|
SetAttribute | Pass a custom user attribute as a key-value pair to the user context. |
GetUserAttributes | Get attributes for the user |
Decide | Returns a decision result for a flag key for a user. The decision result is returned in an OptimizelyDecision object and contains all data required to deliver the flag rule. See Decide methods |
DecideAll | Returns decisions for all active (unarchived) flags for a user. See Decide methods |
DecideForKeys | Returns a map of flag decisions for specified flag keys. See Decide methods |
TrackEvent | See Track Event |
SetForcedDecision | Forces a user into a specific variation. See Set Forced Decision |
GetForcedDecision | Returns what variation the user was forced into. See Get Forced Decision |
RemoveForcedDecision | Removes a user from a specific forced variation. See Remove Forced Decision |
RemoveAllForcedDecisions | Removes a user from all forced variations. See Remove All Forced Decisions |
FetchQualifiedSegments ** | Fetch all Optimizely Data Platform (ODP) real-time segments for which the user context qualified. See Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation segment qualification methods for the Go SDK. |
FetchQualifiedSegmentsAsync ** | Fetch all ODP real-time segments that the user context qualified for asynchronously. See Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation segment qualification methods for the Go SDK. |
IsQualifiedFor ** | Check if the user context qualifies for a given ODP real-time segment. See Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation segment qualification methods for the Go SDK. |
** Requires Real-Time Segments for Feature Experimentation.
