Segment.com Integration
LiveIntent’s integration with Segment enables you to deliver audiences created in Personas to LiveIntent for people-based marketing across email and web channels. The integration simplifies and automates the process for delivering audiences to LiveIntent’s platform, allowing you to bypass inserting new code and manual file uploads. You can find this same technical documentation also on Segment’s partner catalog page.
Overview
This LiveIntent destination supports audiences generated using Segment Personas as a user property. To use this destination, you will need to have the Segment’s Business Tier plan which gives you access to Personas. The Segment Personas integration with LiveIntent uses the Event destination type. Segment customers can send user data created in Personas to LiveIntent for activation.
If you don’t have access to Personas but still want to send data to LiveIntent, you can use the Page, Screen, Track, Group, and Identify method calls. In this case, LiveIntent lets you build the LiveIntent Dynamic audiences based on these calls. For more information about sending your data through the method calls, please reach out to your LiveIntent customer success representative.
