The PageSenseAppID is available under each app created.
By default we will collect user info as anonymous names, but if you want to fetch the user’s first name, you can do so by adding the following code:
let userPropertiesDictionary = ["firstname":"firstname","lastname":"lastname","email":"email"]
PageSense.trackUser(userProfile : userPropertiesDictionary)
When the above code is used, by default, we only retrieve the first name of a user.
