identifyAnonymous()

The identifyAnonymous() method works similarly to usertour.identify(), but automatically generates and manages a unique ID for anonymous users. This ID is stored in the user’s localStorage and persists across page reloads.

Important: Only use this method for unauthenticated users. For signed-in users, use usertour.identify() with their actual user ID.

​

Parameters

​

Returns

A Promise that resolves when the identification is complete.

​

Example

// Identify an anonymous user with custom attributes
usertour.identifyAnonymous({
  last_visited: '2024-03-20T08:30:00.000Z',
  referrer: 'google.com'
});

​

Notes

• The generated ID persists in localStorage until cleared
• Use this method only for public pages where users aren’t logged in
