# getTelemetryContext

This utility function simplifies correlation across Workleap's three telemetry platforms: LogRocket, Honeycomb and Mixpanel.

const telemetryContext = getTelemetryContext(options?: { identityCookieExpiration, identityCookieDomain, verbose });

• options: An optional object literal of options:
  • identityCookieExpiration: The wl-identity cookie expiration date.
  • identityCookieDomain: The wl-identity cookie domain.
  • verbose: Whether or not the utility function output verbose logs.

A TelemetryContext object containing two correlation ids:

• telemetryId: Identifies a single application load. It's primarily used to correlate Honeycomb traces with other telemetry platforms.
• deviceId: Identifies the user's device across sessions. This value is extracted from the shared wl-identity cookie, which is used across Workleap’s marketing sites and web applications.

If the wl-identity cookie doesn't exist, getTelemetryContext will generate a new deviceId and automatically set the wl-identity cookie.

const telemetryContext = getTelemetryContext({ identityCookieExpiration: new Date(Date.now() + 1 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000) });

import { getTelemetryContext } from "@workleap/telemetry";

const telemetryContext = getTelemetryContext({ identityCookieDomain: "acme.com" });
