# Customer.io Hello World

## Overview
Create a minimal working Customer.io example that identifies a user and triggers an event.

## Prerequisites
- Completed `customerio-install-auth` skill
- Customer.io SDK installed
- Valid Site ID and API Key configured

## Instructions

### Step 1: Create Basic Integration
### Step 2: Run the Example
### Step 3: Verify in Dashboard

For detailed implementation code and configurations, load the reference guide:
`Read(${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/implementation-guide.md)`
1. Go to Customer.io dashboard
2. Navigate to People section
3. Search for "user-123" or "hello@example.com"
4. Verify user profile shows attributes
5. Check Activity tab for "hello_world" event

## Output
- User created/updated in Customer.io
- Event recorded in user's activity log
- Console output confirming success

## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Invalid credentials | Verify Site ID and API Key |
| 400 Bad Request | Invalid data format | Check attribute names and types |
| User not found | Identify not called | Always identify before tracking events |
| Event not showing | Dashboard delay | Wait 1-2 minutes and refresh |
