Javascript Callbacks

iAdvize provides Javascript callbacks functions that can be used to perform actions on specific events.

Please be advised that on Q4 of 2019 iAdvize will deliver a new Javascript SDK containing much more features. Current callbacks will be depreciated but we will insure a smooth transition for existing integrations.

How to use callbacks

To execute custom code during an iAdvize callback function you have to define a var iAdvizeCallbacks; variable that will contain the callbacks you want to use. You must declare that variable before iAdvize tracking code.

Each callback function has a obj variable passed as a parameter that could contain some extra information about iAdvize elements.

In the example we want to track Google Analytics events when a chat or a call starts / ends :

var iAdvizeCallbacks = {
  //iAdvize callback functions are listed here
  onChatStarted: function(obj){
    // Chat session starts
    _gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'iAdvize', 'Chat Start', obj.startedBy]);
  },
  onChatEnded: function(obj){
    // Chat session ends
    _gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'iAdvize', 'Chat End', obj.startedBy]);
  },
  onCallStarted: function(obj){
    // Call session starts
    _gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'iAdvize', 'Call Start']);
  },
  onCallEnded: function(obj){
    // Call session ends
    _gaq.push(['_trackEvent', 'iAdvize', 'Call End']);
  }
};
//Put you iAdvize tracking code below...
