Parameters (GET or POST)
Aliasing
This tells us that events done by User 12345 and events done by bob@bob.com were done by the same person. If you log events or properties to either ID, they all refer back to the same one person.
Calling alias is not reversible, and should be used with some caution.
There are only a handful of scenarios where it is appropriate to directly call alias:
You implement Sandstorm using more than one source of data: combining data from an external KM integration, server-side libraries, and/or our JavaScript library.
You are identifying people by their email address, and they update their email address within your app.
You change your tracking schema to identify people…say, from email address to username.
