I have the browser id of the guest in Sitecore CDP
and Personalize
, but I want to update the guest using the REST APIs
. To update the guest using the REST APIs
I require the guest ref. Is there a way to get the guess ref using the browser id?
1 Answer
To get the guest ref using the id you can:
Use the JavaScript Library
Boxever.browserShow(Boxever.browser_id,Boxever.client_key,function(data){
console.log(data.customer.ref);
}, 'json');
or
Use the REST Locate endpoint
You can use the Guest REST API to perform the locate guests function to return guests using their email address or other identifying information. After you perform the locate guests function, you can use the guestRef included in the response to retrieve the full guest record.
$ curl -H "Accept: application/json" \
"https://{apiEndpoint}/v2/guests?email=jack.smith@boxever.com"

Use a Full Stack Interactive Experience
Create a Full Stack Interactive Experience that given the Browser Id returns the guest ref.
Full Stack Interactive experiences are available as part of Sitecore Personalize
. Therefore for organizations with Sitecore CDP only, this solution is not available.
