Post Data from an Unauthenticated Server-to-Server Connection

Use the POST method to send event data through an unauthenticated server-to-server connection. Use an unauthenticated server-to-server connection when your server already collects engagement data that you want to forward to Data Cloud and you don’t require an authenticated connection.

URI: /web/events/{appSourceId}.

Retrieve the {appSourceId} after you create a web or mobile connection in Data Cloud. Mobile connections provide the {appSourceId} during setup. For web connections, you can find it in the JavaScript tag, for example: https://cdn.360a.salesforce.com/beacon/c360a/{appSourceId}/scripts/c360a.min.js.
