Learn about the types of attributes that identify visitors based on their shared behaviors. For example, completing a form or going to a specific webpage.

About visitor and journey attributes

When you create segments or outcomes, you define visitor and journey attributes:

  • Visitor attributes are characteristics that all the visitors in the group share. Examples of visitor attributes are visitors who use Chrome and visitors from Canada.
  • Journey attributes are actions on your website that all the visitors in the group have taken. Examples include completing a form or going to a specific webpage.
Important
When you create a segment or outcome, you can specify any combination of visitor attributes and visitor journeys for a segment. The more of these conditions you define, the more specific the segment, and the fewer number of visitors who belong to it.

You must specify at least one visitor attribute or visitor journey per segment or outcome.

You complete the same process of defining visitor attributes and visitor journeys when you create both segments and outcomes. However, visitor attributes and visitor journeys are not shared across segments and outcomes.

Visitor attributes

Visitor attributes identify visitors based on characteristics like location, browser, device type, and so on.

Tip
If you want to match based on a non-numeric criteria, such as the name of a browser, select the like or not like operator.

Types of visitor attributes

Important
The system doesn't validate free form text. If you misspell a value, the segment doesn't trigger. For example, typing "moble" instead of "mobile" as the device category.

Journey attributes

Important
 
  • The system doesn't validate free form text. If you misspell a value, the segment doesn't trigger. For example, typing "ACB Retailer" when the page title is "ABC Retailer".
  • When specifying time for a custom web event, include milliseconds.
  • When specifying numeric values for a custom web event, only numeric relational operators are available. For example, say you have a custom event called "CartValue" and you want to target all customers who have a cart value of $100 or more. You would select the "greater than or equal to" operator and type 100 in the value box. Note: You can include decimal points but not the currency symbol.

Campaign attributes

Some visitor attributes are campaign attributes because they track activity for specific campaigns. These attributes work with UTM parameters, which are added into page URLs by analytics tools such as Google Analytics, so that you can analyze website activity using campaign information. The following table describes the available campaign attributes in Genesys Predictive Engagement

For more information about Google Analytics, see Custom campaigns.

Attribute name UTM parameter name as it appears in a webpage URL or search string
Campaign source 'utm_source'
Campaign medium 'utm_medium'
Campaign name 'utm_campaign'
Campaign term 'utm_term'
Campaign click ID 'gclid'
Campaign network 'network'
