Create activity for anonymous user

Keith Murphy asked on March 28, 2014 10:33

So by adding code found here http://devnet.kentico.com/docs/onlinemarketingguide/index.html?internals_api_cm_examples_activities.htm to the GetMediaFile.aspx.cs file I've been able to create an activity for known users when the download something from the media library. I can not seem to figure out how best to do this to anonymous users. I assume I want to create a contact based on IP, but I can't seem to make it work. Do you have any code samples?

Hi Keith,

Thank you for your message.

You are free to create your own contacts and set their name as their IP as you mentioned.

Sample can be:

        ContactInfo newContact = new ContactInfo()
        {
            ContactLastName = "My New Contact",
            ContactFirstName = "My New Firstname",
            ContactSiteID = CMSContext.CurrentSiteID,
            ContactIsAnonymous = true
        };

        // Save the contact
        ContactInfoProvider.SetContactInfo(newContact);

Let me know if you have further questions.

Kind regards,

Richard Sustek
