Track user signup events via cURL

When we are building a website or application with cURL, we often require our users to sign up for an account before they can access or use our service. This is a common requirement for many services as it allows us to track usage more efficiently, monitor growth, and avoid abuse.

Unfortunately, this process has certain downsides, such as introducing additional friction to our service and making the users go through extra steps before accessing our service.

Thus, tracking user activity when visiting our service and tracking how many go through the signup process and drop off before they use our service is essential. By monitoring the signup process, we can better understand how our visitors interact with our cURL service and find and fix any issues they may encounter.

LogSnag makes it easy to track events such as user registration directly within your cURL code. As a result, it helps you better understand how your users interact with your product and how your product is performing.

Setting up your account

Setting up LogSnag with cURL is very simple!

1. Create a free LogSnag account.
2. Create a new project on your dashboard.
3. Copy your API token from the settings page.

cURL code snippets

Once your LogSnag account is set up, you can use the following code snippets to track user signup events. Just replace the YOUR_API_TOKEN with your LogSnag API token and update your project name.
