When developing a Nodejs application for user service, it becomes necessary to store user email addresses within your database for a variety of purposes. These include sending welcome emails upon user sign-up, facilitating password reset emails when requested, or notifying users when they're mentioned in comments. Moreover, email addresses are commonly utilized for user authentication and authorization.
In many instances, users may wish to change their email addresses while using your application, driven by reasons like mistyped addresses during sign-up or personal email updates. In any case, it is vital to implement email address change tracking within your Nodejs application to stay continuously informed about such modifications and ensure your database remains up-to-date.
Fortunately, Palzin Track offers a robust solution to tackle this challenge. Palzin Track serves as a potent, real-time event tracking tool seamlessly compatible with a wide range of Nodejs applications. It simplifies the process of tracking significant events within your Nodejs application, allowing you to monitor user activities, their journeys, and more.
One prominent use case for Palzin Track involves the real-time event tracking of user email address changes in your Nodejs application. Additionally, you can choose to configure notification rules to alert you and your team when users modify their email addresses in your Nodejs application.
Furthermore, Palzin Track enables you to monitor user journeys and create a timeline that chronicles their actions, including email address history and other activities conducted within your application. This capability empowers you to maintain a constant watch over individual user activities, such as email address updates and other interactions occurring within your application.
Connect Palzin Track to NodeJs
Use the following code snippet to track when a user changes their email address in your NodeJs application. All you need to do is to replace the YOUR_API_TOKEN with your Palzin Track API token and update the project name to your project name.
Using NodeJs with Axios
var axios = require('axios');
var data = JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "profile",
"event": "Updated Email Address",
"description": "User updated their email address to [email protected]",
"icon": "ðŸ“",
"notify": true
});
var config = {
method: 'post',
url: 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
data : data
};
axios(config)
.then(function (response) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
Using NodeJs with Native
var https = require('follow-redirects').https;
var fs = require('fs');
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'hostname': 'palzin.live',
'path': '/api/v1/log',
'headers': {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
'maxRedirects': 20
};
var req = https.request(options, function (res) {
var chunks = \[\];
res.on("data", function (chunk) {
chunks.push(chunk);
});
res.on("end", function (chunk) {
var body = Buffer.concat(chunks);
console.log(body.toString());
});
res.on("error", function (error) {
console.error(error);
});
});
var postData = JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "profile",
"event": "Updated Email Address",
"description": "User updated their email address to [email protected]",
"icon": "ðŸ“",
"notify": true
});
req.write(postData);
req.end();
Using NodeJs with Request
var request = require('request');
var options = {
'method': 'POST',
'url': 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log',
'headers': {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
},
body: JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "profile",
"event": "Updated Email Address",
"description": "User updated their email address to [email protected]",
"icon": "ðŸ“",
"notify": true
})
};
request(options, function (error, response) {
if (error) throw new Error(error);
console.log(response.body);
});
Using NodeJs with Unirest
var unirest = require('unirest');
var req = unirest('POST', 'https://api.palzin.live/v1/log')
.headers({
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN'
})
.send(JSON.stringify({
"project": "my-project",
"channel": "profile",
"event": "Updated Email Address",
"description": "User updated their email address to [email protected]",
"icon": "ðŸ“",
"notify": true
}))
.end(function (res) {
if (res.error) throw new Error(res.error);
console.log(res.raw_body);
});
