# Snowplow schemas
This page provides Snowplow schema reference for GitLab events.
## `gitlab_standard`
We are including the [`gitlab_standard` schema](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/iglu/-/blob/master/public/schemas/com.gitlab/gitlab_standard/jsonschema/) for structured events and page views.
The [`StandardContext`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/lib/gitlab/tracking/standard_context.rb)
class represents this schema in the application. Some properties are
[automatically populated for frontend events](implementation.md#snowplow-javascript-frontend-tracking),
and can be [provided manually for backend events](implementation.md#implement-ruby-backend-tracking).
| Field Name | Required | Default value | Type | Description |
|----------------|:-------------------:|-----------------------|--|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `project_id` | **{dotted-circle}** | Current project ID * | integer | |
| `namespace_id` | **{dotted-circle}** | Current group/namespace ID * | integer | |
| `user_id` | **{dotted-circle}** | Current user ID * | integer | User database record ID attribute. This value undergoes a pseudonymization process at the collector level. |
| `context_generated_at` | **{dotted-circle}** | Current timestamp | string (date time format) | Timestamp indicating when context was generated. |
| `environment` | **{check-circle}** | Current environment | string (max 32 chars) | Name of the source environment, such as `production` or `staging` |
| `source` | **{check-circle}** | Event source | string (max 32 chars) | Name of the source application, such as `gitlab-rails` or `gitlab-javascript` |
| `plan` | **{dotted-circle}** | Current namespace plan * | string (max 32 chars) | Name of the plan for the namespace, such as `free`, `premium`, or `ultimate`. Automatically picked from the `namespace`. |
| `google_analytics_id` | **{dotted-circle}** | GA ID value * | string (max 32 chars) | Google Analytics ID, present when set from our marketing sites. |
| `extra` | **{dotted-circle}** | | JSON | Any additional data associated with the event, in the form of key-value pairs |
_\* Default value present for frontend events only_
## Default Schema
Frontend events include a [web-specific schema](https://docs.snowplowanalytics.com/docs/understanding-your-pipeline/canonical-event/#Web-specific_fields) provided by Snowplow.
All URLs are pseudonymized. The entity identifier [replaces](https://docs.snowplowanalytics.com/docs/collecting-data/collecting-from-own-applications/javascript-trackers/javascript-tracker/javascript-tracker-v2/tracker-setup/other-parameters-2/#Setting_a_custom_page_URL_and_referrer_URL) personally identifiable
information (PII). PII includes usernames, group, and project names.
Page titles are hardcoded as `GitLab` for the same reason.
