com.segment.analytics.messages.AliasMessage

All Implemented Interfaces:

Message

public abstract class AliasMessage
extends Object
implements Message

The alias message is used to merge two user identities, effectively connecting two sets of user data as one. This is an advanced method, but it is required to manage user identities successfully in some of our integrations.

Use builder(java.lang.String) to construct your own instances.
