Tracking and xConnect

Version:

The tracker is used on Sitecore Content Delivery servers to track a contact during a session. The tracker has its own data model which is converted into a format for xConnect by the XConnectDataAdapter:

With the tracker, you are able to:

Load contact facets from xConnect in read-only mode - changes to facets must be sent directly to xConnect
Trigger events - these are converted into xConnect events before session end
Save interaction facets - these are converted into an xConnect format on session end
Add additional identifiers to a contact
