Event-based integration

The event-based integration allows you to retrieve loaded placements and listen to the events that they emit.

The selection process exposes a method called Selection.on that allows you to subscribe to events emitted by any placement in the selection. Alternatively, each placement can be subscribed to separately after obtaining their instances from a promise returned by Selection.getPlacements method. This resolves with placements once the selection process finishes but before they are loaded on a page

Event types

Rokt supports various event types for users to subscribe to:

Event Title	Definition
OFFER_ENGAGEMENT	describes user engaging positively or negatively with an offer
POSITIVE_ENGAGEMENT	describes user engaging positively with an offer or catalog item
PLACEMENT_CLOSED	describes when a placement closes
PLACEMENT_INTERACTIVE	describes the moment when placement has been rendered and is interactable
PLACEMENT_READY	describes when the placement is ready to display but has not rendered content yet

Examples

// selectionconst selection: Selection;
// Listen for when the placement becomes interactive/ready to displayselection.on('PLACEMENT_INTERACTIVE').subscribe(() => {  // Logic to run after Placement has become interactive});
// Listen for when the placement iframe resizesselection.on('PLACEMENT_RESIZE').subscribe(function () {  // Logic to run after Placement resizes});
