Explanation:

The first two "runInteraction" lines will simply "include" the class files you already uploaded. Make sure your have used the correct interaction names. You will need to put both of these lines on any page, or interaction, that you will be calling the class.

 

//create object
$analytics = new Event(Config::$ANALYTICS_COLLECTOR);

This line will simply create the $analytics object, using the details from the the Config.class.php file. You don't need to modify this line.


//register login event with username, returns saved event with unique id
$response = $analytics->log("Login", array("username" => "johnsmith", 
"group" => "Inspector"));
