How to set custom metadata on feedback

Custom metadata allows you to attach additional information to feedback submissions that Feedbucket doesn't capture automatically. This feature is ideal for tracking specific data points with each feedback entry, such as the userID of the person submitting feedback.

You need to be on our Business Plan to use custom metadata

Custom metadata is configured in the window.feedbucketConfig object on your website. Feedbucket reads these values at submission time, which means you can dynamically update the metadata as needed before feedback is submitted.

<script>
    window.feedbucketConfig = {
        meta: {
            userId: 1337,
            profileUrl: "https://myapp.com/1337" // Will show as a link when it starts with http:// or https://
        }
    }
</script>

The custom metadata can then be seen in the Feedbucket admin panel for the feedback. Please note that currently we do not show the custom metadata in the widget or pass it along to the integrations.
