      Use Cases

      Sending your website and app data from mParticle to Insider helps you leverage a variety of use cases:

      • Triggering Journeys

      You can track user behavior such as cart abandonment, purchase, etc. to trigger journeys with Insider’s Architect products, and target users across different channels such as website, web push, email, etc.

      • Personalizing user experience

      You can leverage the comprehensive user information such as name, age, city, country, etc. that is passed by leveraging native integration with mParticle, and deliver personalized user experiences and messaging across channels.

      2. Click the Output Integration Type and start configuring Insider.

      3. Place your Insider account name, ID and upsert API key into the configuration settings.

      4. After saving the configuration settings, connect your desired input to your Insider output.

      5. Select your Insider configuration and activate your integration.

      User Identification

      By default, Insider gets email, phone number and uuid (mParticle customer_id) and mpID as identifiers. You can easily change it via your identity resolution settings from Identity Resolution Management page. Insider directly collects data as an identifier if the attribute sent by mParticle is selected as an identifier.

      Event and Attribute Sync

      Inisder can get all the events and attribute that are sent from mParticle over to Insider. By default, some of the events and attributes are mapped when syncing data from mParticle. All other events and attributes that are not in the below tables are collected as custom event or attributes from mParticle to Insider.
