# @current_user is your logged-in user object
# @current_account is your account object

Analytics.track(
  user_id: @current_user.id.to_s, 
  event: name, 
  properties: {
    account: {
      name: @current_account.name,
      id: @current_account.id.to_s,
      license_mrr: @current_account.monthly_rate.to_i, # optional
      license_status: @current_account.status # optional
    }
  },
  context: {
    traits: {
      email: @current_user.email,
      name: @current_user.name,
      created_at: @current_user.created_at.to_i
    }
  })
  
# example with hard-coded values

Analytics.track(
  user_id: "123", 
  event: "deleted-thing", 
  properties: {
    account: {
      id: "55534",
      name: "Preact",
      license_status: "paying", # optional
      license_mrr: 499 # optional
    }
  },
  context: {
    traits: {
      email: "[email protected]",
      name: "Christopher Gooley",
      created_at: 383904000
    }
  })

The Account data is sent as part of the Event Properties section (because events are associated with accounts directly).

The Person data is sent as part of the Context Traits (because these are tied to the person directly)

Thanks. That's useful. I suggest posting it on your website because it would definitely save your future customers a lot of development time.
