Beacon Globals

Beacon Config

In addition to providing globals, a config object can be provided as the second parameter.

import { Beacon } from '@searchspring/beacon';

// Initialize Beacon with globals and config
const beacon = new Beacon(
    { siteId: 'abc123', currency: { code: 'USD' } },
    { mode: 'development' }
);

This section lists all available events and their corresponding schemas names provided to the data object. Refer to the API reference for data payloads and examples for each event.
