Integrate Einstein Recommendations and Collect API
Analytic Attribution
Einstein Recommendations analytics uses a unique identifier to attribute collected analytics to a specific user. By default, the SDK uses the contact key as this identifier, called the PIID. Your app can explicitly set this value. Review setPiIdentifier and setUseLegacyPiIdentifier for details and configuration information.
If the PIID isn’t set or is null and the SDK is configured to use the Legacy PI identifier, the SDK sends the contact key as the PIID.
Example: Analytic Attribution
