Enrichment

Enrichment of Collection Entries

Objects stored inside collections can be embedded inside activities or user objects. This allows you to integrate with Stream without building a complex integration with another database. Stream’s collections can be used as your data source for data enrichment.

// first we add our object to the food collection
var collectionData = new Dictionary<string, object>();
collectionData.Add("name", "Cheese Burger");
collectionData.Add("ingredients", new[] { "cheese", "burger", "bread", "lettuce", "tomato" });
var cheeseBurger = await client.Collections.AddAsync("food", collectionData, "123");

// the object returned by .add can be embedded directly inside of an activity
var activity = new Activity("jim", "grill", cheeseBurger.Ref("food"));
await userFeed.AddActivityAsync(activity);

// if we now read the feed, the activity we just added will include the entire full object
await userFeed.GetEnrichedFlatActivitiesAsync();
