Connection Mode	Web	Mobile	Server
Device mode	-	-	-
Cloud mode	Supported	Supported	Supported

Once you have confirmed that the source platform supports sending events to Candu, follow these steps:

• From your RudderStack dashboard, add the source. Then, from the list of destinations, select Candu.

Connection settings

To successfully configure Candu as a destination, you will need to configure the following settings:

• API Key: Your API Key is the unique key generated against your Candu account. You can find it under the Settings > Workspaces > Access Keys section of your Candu account. Refer to the FAQ section for more details.

Identify

The identify call lets you capture the details of a visiting user along with any associated traits such as their name, email address, etc.

A sample identify call is shown below:

rudderanalytics.identify("webUser01", {
  email: "[e-mail]",
  firstName: "Name",
  lastName: "LastName",
  phoneNumber: "22222222",
  dateOfBirth: "xxxx-xx-xx",
  custom_fields: {
    key1: "value1",
    key2: "value2",
  },
});
}

Track

The track call lets you capture user events along with the properties associated with them.

A sample track call is shown below:

rudderanalytics.track('Promotion Clicked', {
  promotion_id: 'promo1',
  creative: 'banner1',
  name: 'sale',
  position: 'home_top'
});

When sending events to Candu, make an identify call before the track call. This ensures that no duplicate user identities are created in the Candu platform.
