Sender Identity in PulseGrid

Understand identifier_id and identifier_label and how PulseGrid uses them to identify who sent a message.

Text

Overview

PulseGrid uses sender identity fields to keep realtime events meaningful across many different client platforms. The two most important identity fields are: - identifier_id - identifier_label

Setup

Use identifier_id as the stable machine-level identity. Use identifier_label as the human-friendly display label.

Code example

Sender Identity in PulseGrid
Example sender identity:
identifier_id: user_123
identifier_label: Kwandile

Or:
identifier_id: driver_88
identifier_label: Driver Themba

Or:
identifier_id: bot_support
identifier_label: Support Bot

Notes

identifier_id should normally be stable and app-defined. identifier_label should normally be friendly and display-oriented.
