The experience.js segment plugin utilizes the track API, which records all actions your user performs along with the properties that describe the action performed by the user.
Each action is called an event, and these events have names and properties. The properties can be defined by you, and it is optional but if you need to get a clearer picture of the user, it is important.of
{
"type": "track",
"event": "User Registered",
"properties": {}
}
Furthermore, the
categoryPropertyTemplate is a templated optional property that can be attached to the event to give a clearer picture of what component is viewed or the event took place on your interface.The
audienceProperty is also a templated optional property that adds further information about the audience for the personalized component,Segment is also a source of customer data. Have a look at the Customer Data section to learn more about how to leverage your data from Segment within Ninetailed.
