Sby Segment
Track an event
Records one action a user took, such as Signed Up, with its properties and routes it to the source's destinations.
Description
Send `event`, `userId` or `anonymousId`, and optional `properties`; a request can be up to 32 KB. Segment deduplicates on `messageId`, so give every event a unique one under 100 characters. `SEGMENT_API_KEY` holds the base64 of the source's write key followed by a colon.
