Getting Started

Before you start, make sure Evergage supports the source type and connection mode you’ve chosen to implement. You can learn more about connection modes here.

1. From the Segment web app, click Catalog.
2. Search for “Evergage” in the Catalog, select it, and choose which of your sources to connect the destination to.
3. Enter your Evergage Account Key (this is the subdomain you use to login to Evergage with; if your account is “testaccount.evergage.com”, then use “testaccount”);
4. Finally, enter the name of the Evergage Dataset you want data to flow to (by default this is “engage”);

Identify

If you’re not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the Identify method does. An example call would look like:

analytics.identify('userId123', {
  name: 'John Doe',
  email: 'john.doe@example.com'
});

A userId is required on all identify calls sent to . When you call identify Segment will call both setUser and setUserField in the Evergage library to insert both the userId and corresponding user traits into .

Group

If you’re not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the Group method does. An example call would look like:

analytics.group('companyId123', {
  name: 'Segment'
});

A groupId is required on all group calls sent to . When you call group Segment will call both setCompany and setAccountField in the Evergage library to insert both the groupId and corresponding group traits into .

Track

If you’re not familiar with the Segment Specs, take a look to understand what the Track method does. An example call would look like:

analytics.track('Email Opened', {
  name: 'John Doe',
  email: 'john.doe@example.com'
});

When you call track Segment triggers trackAction in Evergage and will pass any properties with the event.

Settings

Segment lets you change these destination settings from the Segment app without having to touch any code.
