User Context

The user context is a crucial component in VWO's Feature Management and Experimentation SDK. It provides information about the current user, which is used for targeting and segmentation.

Usage

When calling methods like get_flag(), you need to provide a user context:

user_context = {
    id: 'user_id'
}

get_flag_response = vwo_instance.get_flag('feature_key', user_context)

Paramter	Type	Description
id Required	String	Unique user ID for the current user. 'id' is the only required property in userContext. This ID should be a unique identifier for the current user which you need to pass to VWO. Read more here .
userAgent Optional	String	The userAgent object for the current user, can be used for targeting & segmentation.
ipAddress Optional	String	IP Address of the current user, can be used for targeting & segmentation.
customVariables Optional	hash	Any additional details of the current user that you want to push to VWO can be added here as key-value pairs, can be used for targeting & pre-segmentation.

The userId is required for all SDK calls. Other properties are optional but can be used for more precise targeting and segmentation.
