Important note on using segment, deployed on frontend.When you primarily use Segment's Analytics.js on the frontend, you might experience missing data because of ad blockers (e.g. uBlock Origin). If the data doesn't reach Segment, journy.io can obviously not receive it neither, and thus won't be able to process your data in a meaningful way. To solve this, you can setup a proxy domain (see https://segment.com/docs/connections/sources/catalog/libraries/website/javascript/custom-proxy/) or move calls to the backend. |

Review source settings
Going to your Connection→Segment settings, you can choose source settings tab:
(Optionally, depending on manual or automatic setup) See you API key. Pressing on it will copy it to the clipboard.
'Ignore event metadata keys': Fill in the metadata key names that you want to ignore throughout journy.io. An event (e.g. 'Submit form') kan have metadata (e.g. your-message). Sometimes companies add things such as AccountID or UserID which doesn't have any use, as journy.io already collects those IDs. To avoid misleading metadata with ID data, you can enter those names here and they will not be tracked by journy.io
