How to create a dynamic attribute?

Introduction

Welcome! This article will provide you with a simple step-by-step guide to creating a dynamic attribute in the EB control panel. 

What is a dynamic attribute? It's an attribute which will allow you to score the activities we're tracking on your own. Then, you can use them in your Custom Scoring. 

 

Prerequisites

Before we start, make sure you have access to the XO control panel. If you do not have access you can request access by clicking here or choosing “I/my colleague require access to an Attraqt service” from the use case drop down on the “Submit a request” page in the Support Centre. For security reasons we require access for 3rd parties to be requested by a member of the organisation to whos control panel access is being requested for. This is to ensure the individual has the organisations permission to access the control panel. 

 

Scenario

We will base the scenario on a specific example, using a XO demo account.

Here, our brand would like to push their best sellers, which correspond to the purchases of the last 15 days.

 

Step 1

Firstly, go to the attribute dynamic space:

 

Step 2 

Then, define a name for your dynamic attribute. Enter your activity and the number of days:

 

You can make a dynamic attribute on all the activities we're already tracking.

 

Step 3

All our activities are recomputed during the night, therefore your dynamic attribute will be applied the morning following its creation. 

 

Step 4

Once published, you can go to your item list and check that your attribute has been applied to your items. 

In this example, the attribute "metrics" is displayed on an item has been purchase two times in the last 15 days.
