Value Suggestions is a small but very useful feature for MoEngage dashboard users. Value suggestions are the exact values present in an event attribute or user attribute, which are shown to the users while creating segments or performing any analysis, so users don't have to remember long attribute names and can directly select the value from the suggested ones.

Example - User is selecting the campaign name as event property, MoEngage dashboard displays the list of campaigns. If the list is long, type the value and shorten the suggested list.

Evaluation Criteria

Which event or user properties can have Value Suggestions?

All event attributes and user attributes will have value suggestions if they qualify for the below condition - 

1. Suggestions are shown only for string values. Suggestions are not available for numeric and date values. Boolean values will have a default true or false selection dropdown.

2. For event attributes, suggestions are only generated for events that were received less than 10 million times on the last day.

3. For user attributes, suggestions will be generated irrespective of the number of times that are received.

4. Suggestions are only generated for an attribute if the cardinality (unique value) is less than 10,000.
5. The character length of the value is should not be more than 100 characters.

If the above conditions are not satisfied, suggestions for that attribute will not be generated. Also, suggestions are only available for the last 3 day's data. 

If a user has selected the condition as "In the following", she can select multiple values.

Users should see the results/suggestions as soon as they focus on the input field. The response time is less than 0.5 seconds. MoEngage will show the top 30 values in the list by default, 8-10 being visible upfront. Enter the first few characters of the value you wish to search and get the list of values. If the list is still long then enter more characters until you find your desired value.
