Methods

addAllExperimentIds(Iterable<String> values)

public UserEvent.Builder addAllExperimentIds(Iterable<String> values)

A list of identifiers for the independent experiment groups this user event belongs to. This is used to distinguish between user events associated with different experiment setups (e.g. using Retail API, using different recommendation models).

repeated string experiment_ids = 4;

Parameter
NameDescription
valuesIterable<String>

The experimentIds to add.

Returns
TypeDescription
UserEvent.Builder

This builder for chaining.

addAllPageCategories(Iterable<String> values)

public UserEvent.Builder addAllPageCategories(Iterable<String> values)

The categories associated with a category page. To represent full path of category, use '>' sign to separate different hierarchies. If '>' is part of the category name, please replace it with other character(s). Category pages include special pages such as sales or promotions. For instance, a special sale page may have the category hierarchy: "pageCategories" : ["Sales > 2017 Black Friday Deals"]. Required for category-page-view events. At least one of search_query or page_categories is required for search events. Other event types should not set this field. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned.

UserEvent.Builder

clearVisitorId()

public UserEvent.Builder clearVisitorId()

Required. A unique identifier for tracking visitors. For example, this could be implemented with an HTTP cookie, which should be able to uniquely identify a visitor on a single device. This unique identifier should not change if the visitor log in/out of the website. Don't set the field to the same fixed ID for different users. This mixes the event history of those users together, which results in degraded model quality. The field must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 128 characters. Otherwise, an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned. The field should not contain PII or user-data. We recommend to use Google Analytics Client ID for this field.

containsAttributes(String key)

public boolean containsAttributes(String key)

Extra user event features to include in the recommendation model. If you provide custom attributes for ingested user events, also include them in the user events that you associate with prediction requests. Custom attribute formatting must be consistent between imported events and events provided with prediction requests. This lets the Retail API use those custom attributes when training models and serving predictions, which helps improve recommendation quality. This field needs to pass all below criteria, otherwise an INVALID_ARGUMENT error is returned:

  • The key must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 5,000 characters.
  • For text attributes, at most 400 values are allowed. Empty values are not allowed. Each value must be a UTF-8 encoded string with a length limit of 256 characters.
  • For number attributes, at most 400 values are allowed. For product recommendations, an example of extra user information is traffic_channel, which is how a user arrives at the site. Users can arrive at the site by coming to the site directly, coming through Google search, or in other ways.
