Adding Client-Side Properties to Server-Side Tracking
Is it possible to add properties tracked on the client side to the server-side such as screen height and screen width? kapa.ai
Yes, it is possible to add client-side properties like screen height and screen width to server-side tracking in Mixpanel. This can be achieved through a few different approaches:1. Manual Tracking: You can manually pass client-side properties to your server and then include them in your server-side tracking calls to Mixpanel. This requires you to send these properties from the client to your server with each request.2. User Agent Parsing: For properties like screen dimensions, you can parse the User-Agent string on the server side. Many server frameworks provide access to this information. As mentioned in the Server-Side Best Practices documentation: ``` Mixpanel's Web and Mobile SDKs parse
User-Agentinto a set of properties about the user's browser, device, and OS. This doesn't happen automatically with server-side tracking, but it's easy to add these properties yourself.kapa.ai is still learning and improving, please let me know how I did by reacting below.
