Events

The Selektable SDK communicates with the widget iframe using the browser’s postMessage API.

You don’t need to handle these events directly. The SDK manages them automatically. This reference is for debugging purposes.

Key events

The SDK handles several categories of events between your page and the widget:

Category	Description
Lifecycle	Widget loading, opening, and closing
Product data	Sending product information to the widget
Cart actions	Add to cart, view cart, and checkout interactions
Identity	Passing visitor identity to the widget

You can listen for when a customer closes the widget, for example to trigger analytics:

window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {
  if (
    event.data &&
    event.data.type === 'widget:modal-close'
  ) {
    // Customer closed the widget
    console.log('Widget closed');
  }
});

Security

The SDK validates the origin and structure of all incoming messages. Messages from untrusted sources are silently ignored.
