 ```javascript
 var visitor = ua('UA-XXXX-XX', {uid: 'as8eknlll'});
 ```
+If you want to only use `uid` to identify user and not using the clientID, just include the options `identifyByUserId: true`. This is useful for those who mainly track user base on UserId.
+```javascript
+var visitor = ua('UA-XXXX-XX', {uid: 'as8eknlll', identifyByUserId: true});
