Error: Argument 'distinct_id' must not be blank.

Using Laravel 4.2.* I keep getting the above error, despite trying different ways of writing the code. Here is what I have:

            $result = Trakio::identify([
                'distinct_id' => Auth::user()->email,
                'properties' => [
                    'email' => Auth::user()->email,
                    'first_name' => Auth::user()->profile->first_name,
                    'last_name' => Auth::user()->profile->last_name,
                ],
            ]);
            Trakio::track('Logged In');

Based on the code in the package, it should keep the distinct_id set, but it doesn't appear to be. I have the token set in the config file, not sure if I need to put anything in the config array or not (it's empty as of now).

$result also shows success if I remove the track() call.

Any suggestions? Everything works just fine using JS implementation, of course its not as clean. :)

Thanks!

Hi Mike. Not sure what happened. Did you try contacting track.io? Maybe is a limitation of the api?

I did ... I wonder if I'm not configuring it right? Is there some code that needs to be on every page (I was always assuming that the service provider took care of that) -- I don't see the track-io snippet anywhere when running the package.

Liam did mention that they were having some backlog, but nothing that would have affected my account in that way. After switching to the traditional JS, I was able to see the events as expected.
