Connect FullStory to your AI client to trigger telemetry from the backend. This lets you record events that happen outside the browser.

Short answer

How can I send backend events using my AI?

Your AI uses the FullStory MCP to call the create_event tool whenever a specific backend condition is met. This sends telemetry directly to your FullStory dashboard to enrich user sessions with server-side data. You'll see the breakdown of how this works below.

The results.

Where your data lands.

The AI handles the event creation so your telemetry stays accurate.

TELEMETRY

Enriched user sessions

The AI sends the event via create_event. Your FullStory dashboard now includes backend data alongside browser interactions.

ANALYSIS

Complete user journeys

Because the AI triggers these events, you can map server-side logic to specific user sessions without manual code changes.

AUDIT

Verified event logs

Every event triggered by your agent is logged in FullStory. You can verify exactly when the AI decided to fire a specific event.

HUMAN

Manual review needed

The AI won't change your existing FullStory configuration. You still need to check your dashboard to confirm the data looks right.

The workflow

What your AI does when an event is triggered.

The AI acts as the bridge between your logic and your telemetry provider.

  1. Identify the trigger

    Your agent recognizes a specific state or user action that requires a backend event.

    create_event

  2. Format the payload

    The AI structures the event properties and user identifiers to match your FullStory schema.

    create_event

  3. Execute the event

    The AI calls the specific tool to push the data to your FullStory account.

    create_event

  4. Confirm delivery

    The AI verifies the tool execution was successful before moving to the next task.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI delete existing FullStory events?

    No. The AI only has the ability to create new events.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my FullStory dashboard settings?

    No. The AI can only send data to the dashboard, not modify your account configuration or settings.

  • 03

    Does the AI need my FullStory password?

    No. You connect via the Vinkius platform, which keeps your login credentials encrypted and secure.

  • 04

    Can I send multiple properties with one event?

    Yes. You can instruct the AI to include various properties in the event payload.

  • 05

    Can the AI capture mouse movements?

    No. This MCP is for backend telemetry. Mouse movements and browser-side interactions are captured by the standard FullStory browser script.
