The ID stitcher model maps and unifies all the specified identifiers across inputs. It tracks the user journey uniquely across all the data sources and stitches them together to a rudder_id.

You can define an ID stitcher in the pb_project.yaml file:

models:
    - name: model_name
      model_type: `id_stitcher`
      model_spec:
          entity_key: entity_name
          materialization:
              run_type: discrete/incremental
          incremental_timedelta: 12h
          edge_sources:
              - from: path/to_inputs_table
              - from: path/to_inputs_table
FieldDescription
nameModel name.
model_typeModel type - set this parameter to id_stitcher to implement an ID stitcher.
model_specDefines the model configuration.
entity_keySpecifies the entity to stitch.
run_typeRun type - set this parameter to discrete or incremental (default).
incremental_timedeltaSets the time lack when run_type is set to incremental.
edge_sourcesList of inputs from inputs.yaml and sql-models.yaml used for identity stitching.

Example

models:
    - name: user_id_stitcher
      model_type: id_stitcher
      model_spec:
          entity_key: user
          materialization:
              run_type: incremental
          incremental_timedelta: 12h
          edge_sources:
              - from: inputs/rsIdentifies
              - from: inputs/rsTracks
