CLI — Visitors

Get details for a unique visitor from the terminal. Works with both dft_ account tokens and df_ website API keys.

The visitors commands map to List visitors and Get visitor data:

GET /api/v1/visitors
GET /api/v1/visitors/{datafast_visitor_id}

Search visitors

# People who visited /pricing in the last 30 days
datafast visitors list --visited-page /pricing --period last30d

# People who read docs and completed signup
datafast visitors list --visited-page-contains /docs --completed-goal signup --period last30d

# Mobile visitors from Google in France
datafast visitors list --device mobile --referrer Google --country France --period last30d

# Customers from a launch campaign
datafast visitors list --utm-campaign launch --is-customer --period last30d

Get visitor details

datafast visitors get <datafast_visitor_id>
datafast visitors get <datafast_visitor_id> --website <websiteId>

With a dft_ account token, omit --website to choose from your websites interactively. With a df_ website API key, the website is already scoped.

The response includes:

Visitor identity data such as country, browser, OS, device, URL params, and ad click IDs
Visitor activity such as first visit, last visit, visit count, page views, visited pages, and completed custom goals
Identify profile data such as profile.userId, profile.metadata, and profile.identifiedAt when available. See user identification to connect anonymous visitors to your users.
Prediction data when conversion metrics are available

Visitor drilldown use cases

# "Show me who visited /pricing in the last 30 days"
datafast visitors list --visited-page /pricing --period last30d

# "Show me who read docs and then signed up"
datafast visitors list --visited-page-contains /docs --completed-goal signup --period last30d

# "Show me customers from a launch campaign"
datafast visitors list --utm-campaign launch --is-customer --period last30d

# "Show me who churned today"
datafast visitors list --completed-goal subscription_ended --period today

# Then fetch full identity, activity, profile, and prediction data
datafast visitors get <datafast_visitor_id>

Payment-provider goals such as payment, free_trial, and subscription_ended are tracked automatically when you connect a payment provider. See custom goals for the full reserved list.

When you set up revenue attribution with a payment provider, DataFast can map SaaS lifecycle events back to visitors. This lets you ask questions like "who started a trial today?", "who subscribed?", or "who churned today?", then use Identify data from visitors get to see the user ID, email, name, or other profile metadata.

Use --json for compact output:

datafast --json visitors get <datafast_visitor_id>
