Feature request

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Please describe.

When using Segment on the frontend, many frontend and person properties are included with events, however, feature flag data is not included, prompting users to have to manually send that data with something like:

analytics.track("user signed up", {
    plan: "Pro Annual",
    accountType: "Premium",
    $feature/feature-flag-key: 'variant-key' // Add your feature flag info here
});

Describe the solution you'd like

Include feature flag data with Segment events when run on the frontend.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Manually sending the feature flag variant which requires one of the following:

  • Running segment alongside the Web SDK (some users may not want to do this)
  • Calling the /decide endpoint to get the flag data (additional API calls)
