      Note: If the selected date(s) doesn't exist in the month specified (as it is a shorter month), a campaign will be sent on the last date. (For example, if the 30th and 31st are selected and the month is February, one campaign would be sent on the 28th).

When will event triggered campaigns be sent?

The campaign will be sent only when:

  • The event property/attribute which is being used to create these types of triggers (like the flight_time example), is in a valid date-time format. If it is not in date-time format, the string should have data in one of the supported formats. If the selected attributes do not contain data in any of these formats, the campaign won't be sent to your users. 
  • The date/time value from the attribute is greater than the time at which the trigger condition is fulfilled.
  • The date/time value from the attribute is less than 30 Days + the time at which the trigger condition is fulfilled e.g. If your trigger condition is fulfilled at date D, your notification will be sent only when the attribute value is less than D+30.
  • The intelligent delay optimization (With Delay) does not work for campaigns sent on relative timing.

Conversion Goals

You can add conversion goals to track the business metrics for your campaigns. You can track a maximum of five conversion goals. You can choose any app event as a conversion goal activity and set more than one conversion goal. The first goal will be treated as a primary goal.

For example, if you want to track the number of customers who have purchased an iPhone after your campaign was sent. (Event: Purchase event, Product: iPhone). Your conversion goal setup might be similar to the following image:

ConVErsionGoals.png

With multiple conversion goals, you can track more than one business metric or visualize a funnel for your user actions. For example, if you want to check the following, you can do so with multiple conversion goals.

  • How many users have viewed the product page?
  • How many of them added that product to the cart?
  • How many of them made a successful order?
arrow_drop_down Tracking Revenue Performance (Optional)

With MoEngage, you can track the revenue generated by your campaigns. For example, you can track the revenue generated by your product after sending a communication. To track revenue performance, enable the Revenue performance toggle for the conversion goal for which you want to track the revenue.

In the example here, to track revenue for orderSuccessful events, you must enable the Revenue performance toggle.

TrackingRevenuePerformance.png
After choosing the goal, you can select the numeric attribute that captures the order's total monetary value. In this example, cartValue contains the total order value. You can choose the currency in which your monetary value is being reported. RevenuePerformance.png
Set Attribution window: You can set an attribution window (a time period or window that is calculated since the user has received/clicked the campaign, for which you want to attribute the conversion goals to a specific campaign.) By default, it is set for 36 hours while the maximum attribution window can be set up to 10 days. In the example below, the attribution window is set to 10 days. attribution window.png
