Terms to Know

These terms can help you as you begin your journey on MoEngage.

Term Definition
Analytics

MoEngage Analytics helps you understand how users interact with your web and mobile apps. You can use it to track events and analyze trends to measure the performance of your app and campaigns.

API

MoEngage APIs provide a web service where you can send actions taken by your users directly through HTTPS, rather than through the mobile SDKs or the web SDK. This allows you to pass user data to MoEngage that is not tracked within your app or website. For more information, refer to API.

Campaign Approval Flow

Campaign approval allows Marketing teams to control or review the campaigns going live by implementing a creator-approver (maker-checker) approach. For more information, refer to Campaign Approval Workflow.

Engagement Channels

MoEngage offers various channels to reach your users with our campaigns:

Environment

Every MoEngage account for an app or web provides two different environments: TEST and LIVE. We support this with a single Workspace ID, (available under App Settings), which is your MoEngage identifier. 

Events

Events track the actions that users perform in your app or website. For example, launching an app, viewing a product, sharing a song, making a purchase, and so on.

FUP

Fair Usage Policy (FUP) is a set of guidelines and rules implemented to ensure all customers have equal and non-discriminatory access to MoEngage resources.

Key Metrics

Key metrics is a dashboard page that provides all important and necessary information for day-to-day use for marketers. A quick glance at the Key metrics page shows the usage, engagement, and performance metrics of the product. For more information, refer to Key Metrics.

Merlin AI

The powerful machine-learning engine of MoEngage adds intelligence to your orchestrations or powers your recommendations. It automatically maximizes campaign engagement by predicting and sending the right message at the right time.

MTU

Monthly Tracked Users (MTUs) are the total number of unique users for whom at least one event was tracked in a specified month. This is a key metric for billing. For more details on how MoEngage calculates MTUs, refer to Usage Details.

Recommendations

You can include your product catalogs in your campaigns using recommendations. For more information, refer to Recommendations.

Roles

MoEngage allows multiple team members to be added to the same account. There are 5 access roles (Admin, Manager, Marketer, Developer and Analyst) with different permissions. For more information, refer to Access Roles.

Team

A team is a group of MoEngage users using MoEngage Dashboard who collaborate on the same campaigns. These users can be from the same geography or from the same vertical within the enterprise. For more information, refer to Teams in MoEngage.

Triggers

Triggers are messages sent to the device when the user performs a trigger event. Messages are served in near real time. For more information, refer to Triggers.

User Profile

A user profile is a collection of all information associated with a user in MoEngage systems. A user profile may contain usage information (behavior), demographic information (age, physical attributes, language, family), psychological info (attitudes, beliefs, opinions), professional info (education, work experience), and so on. For more information, refer to User Profile.

All MoEngage AI products, which were previously referred to as Sherpa AI, are now known as Merlin AI.
