Audiences: Attentive Targets Endpoint

This article outlines the technical details of how Daasity pushes data into Attentive using the Custom Attributes and Custom Events API endpoint using our Audiences product to enable sophisticated segmentation to be pushed into Attentive

Goals

After reading this article you should be able to understand how the Daasity platform using the Attentive APIs is able to update contact information and create events for subscribers in Attentive

Target Overview
