# Event

The URL for your endpoint is available in [our app dashboard](https://app.edgetag.io/).

### User

When sending events, make sure that you handle the user correctly. You have two options for connecting a user.

#### Via EdgeTag ID

If you have the option, it's preferred to store our EdgeTag ID (you can use our `getUserId` function) from the browser into your own system database. This way, when you send events from your system to EdgeTag, you will include them in the request headers  as  `EdgeTagUserId`.

<pre class="language-bash" data-title="With EdgeTag ID" data-overflow="wrap"><code class="lang-bash">curl --request POST \
  --url https://abc.domain.com/tag \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
<strong>  --header 'EdgeTagUserId: 138fffcd-ee39-4fd1-b5b5-760f07454407-1662025231518' \
</strong>  --data '{

		]
	},

#### Via Email

If you only have an email, there's nothing to worry about. We can integrate the browser (online) with your offline system. Make sure that you provide an email in the payload through `userEmail` key.

<pre class="language-bash" data-title="With Email" data-overflow="wrap"><code class="lang-bash">curl --request POST \
  --url https://abc.domain.com/tag \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \

### Sending Event

If you are sending standard events, please ensure that you follow our [standard events documentation](/overview/standard-events.md).

When consent is enabled, ensure that you include it in the request as well; see the examples above (`storage` key).

The Event ID should be unique to prevent signal loss.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.edgetag.io/implementation/http/event.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
