What are user properties (also referred to as “contact properties”) and their data types?

User properties are additional information about the contacts allowing you to personalize your communication. For example, first name, gender, age, etc

User properties can also have a data type associated with them on the basis of the value they hold. For example, age can be of data type number, first_name can be of data type string and any other property can be of data type boolean. 

We currently support string, number, boolean, and datetime data type values for user properties. Please refer to this article if you are looking to import datetime values for user properties

What are the default user properties and their data types in Mailmodo?

The below-mentioned properties will be made available by default in Mailmodo and their data type is predefined as below

Now, you can send a contact’s created date, last open, and last click date in any system to us via the addToList API making migration to Mailmodo a bit simpler

What are custom user properties in Mailmodo and how will their data types be determined?

Any other property that you create apart from the default properties will be custom properties

The data type of these properties can be assigned during creation using the dashboard

If the property is sent via API or synced via 3rd party integrations, then the data type will be inferred from the value of the first instance of the property 

How to create and update user properties?

We’ll update the value of all the properties whenever you upload the values for any of the existing properties

When you integrate with Shopify, HubSpot, Salesforce, Mixpanel, and Segment.io, we’ll automatically map their contact properties to respective default properties in Mailmodo

How to import date time values for the user properties?

Identifiers are unique values that represent contacts. In Mailmodo, every contact in the system is uniquely identified using the email address of that contact. You identify, add, and update contacts using their identifiers by importing contacts in the system via API, CSVs, manually or by integrating other apps.

1. In case the email address is not provided, the contact is completely ignored.

2. Once the email address is assigned to a contact in the system, it cannot be changed, updated or duplicated to a new one in the existing contact. If a user wants to change the email address of a contact, they will have to create a new contact altogether.

3.The variable used to represent emails associated with contacts is ‘email’.

Emails are used as identifiers in Mailmodo to track contacts before they convert to customers.
