External events - conversion tracking

[Jaarson]

Is there a way to capture external events?

For example, Lemon Squeezy sends me a webhook when a purchase is made. I can handle that webhook and send a custom event to Umami via API, but I think I might lose some data, such as the sessionID, right?

While the visitor is still on my website, I can pass any data to the Lemon Squeezy checkout, which then will be passed back in the webhook. However, can I obtain the user's sessionID somehow?

This is important for conversion tracking and I currently can't collect data about who (user or session) made a purchase.

Any ideas? 🙏

Idea: I could calculate sessionId manually on my end, using the code as below, and pass it to Lemon Squeezy or any other external place?

umami/src/lib/session.ts

Line 70 in 88da20e

const sessionId = uuid(websiteId, hostname, ip, userAgent);
