When developing a website or application with Swift, it’s common to require users to sign up for an account to access our service. However, this can introduce friction and make it harder for users to engage with our product. That’s why it’s important to track user activity and monitor how many users drop off during the signup process.
LogHive simplifies this process by allowing you to track user registration events directly within your Swift code. By monitoring these events, you can gain insights into how users interact with your product and improve its performance. With LogHive, you can focus on building a seamless user experience while still collecting valuable data to help grow your business.
How it works in Swift
LogHive provides a simple REST API that you can use to push events and errors to the LogHive service. You can organize your events into projects and groups to keep them organized and easily searchable. Once an event is pushed to LogHive, it is processed and can be viewed in the event stream or dashboard.
With just a few lines of Swift-code, you can start pushing events to LogHive and receiving push notifications for your application’s events and errors.
let url = URL(string: "https://api.loghive.app/v1/event/add")!
var request = URLRequest(url: url)
request.httpMethod = "POST"
request.addValue("YourPersonalApiKey", forHTTPHeaderField: "ApiKey")
request.addValue("application/json", forHTTPHeaderField: "Content-Type")
let json: [String: Any] = [
"project": "yourprojectname",
"group": "User",
"event": "New User",
"description": "your-description",
"notify": false
]
let jsonData = try! JSONSerialization.data(withJSONObject: json, options: [])
request.httpBody = jsonData
let task = URLSession.shared.dataTask(with: request) { data, response, error in
if let error = error {
print("Error: \(error)")
return
}
guard let response = response as? HTTPURLResponse,
(200...299).contains(response.statusCode) else {
print("Server error")
return
}
if let data = data,
let jsonString = String(data: data, encoding: .utf8) {
print("Response: \(jsonString)")
}
}
task.resume()
If an error occurs while creating an event, you will receive an Error object in return.
{'StatusCode': 400, 'Message': 'missing group name'}

Receive Push Notifications
To receive push notifications, you simply need to install the LogHive Android app (Playstore) or use LogHive through the web application and allow notifications.
Add an element to your project dashboard
In addition to push notifications, LogHive allows you to display captured events in a dashboard with various elements. With just a few clicks, you can display the events already pushed in the dashboard.
In conclusion, tracking user activity and the signup process is essential when building a website or application with Swift. This helps us understand how our visitors interact with our service and identify any issues they may encounter. With LogHive, developers can easily track user events such as registration directly within their Swift code. This allows for better monitoring of user behavior and provides valuable insights for improving the overall performance of the product.
