Brief Overview
In addition to automatic Triggers (Static and Happy Moment), Campaigns can be triggered by a unique API call integrated to the app.
The API trigger is useful for activating Campaigns by an action performed in your app, such as a button tap or a screen transition. For example, if there is nothing in the app to key a segment off of, you can set an API trigger to precisely determine the moment when a Campaign will start.
Steps For Enabling the API Trigger in the Mobile Console
The API trigger requires setting a key by which the Campaign will start, which can be done by clicking on the Advanced button next to the trigger setting in the Campaign Wizard’s EDIT AUDIENCE tab.
- Click Advanced:
- Toggle API trigger on and enter API key:
