Attributes from Stripe metadata

For customers using Stripe, we automatically pull in any metadata that you add to your customers in your Stripe account.

Adding attributes using Zapier 

Zapier is a platform which enables you to connect the services you use together, save time, and get more value from your data.

Our Zapier integration allows you to connect ChartMogul with 500+ apps on the Zapier platform like HubSpot, Pipedrive, Intercom, Close.io, and more. You can enrich your customer information with Sales, Marketing and Customer Success metadata from the other services you use, allowing for rich segmentation features. You can get started by using one of our shared zaps, or building your own. 

Adding attributes using the Enrichment API 

You can send custom attributes from any tool that you use for marketing, CRM, or even your own database.

For step-by-step instructions on how to push custom attributes to ChartMogul via the API, please read this tutorial.

If you have suggestions for specific integrations or would like to tell us how you used our Enrichment API, we'd love to hear from you at support@chartmogul.com.

Adding attributes from a Google sheet

The ChartMogul Google Sheets app allows you to add attributes to your customers directly from Google Sheets.

Learn more about importing custom attributes from a Google Sheet.

Adding attributes via UI

Custom attributes can be added via UI in the Custom attributes manager. In order to add a custom attribute via UI, head to Data Platform > Custom attributes and click on the + new custom attribute. Clicking on the button will open a modal asking to specify the Name and the Data type of the custom attribute.

Editing attributes 

You can edit an existing attribute from a customer's profile page by clicking on Edit next to the attribute you want to change. 

Managing custom attributes 

To manage your attributes please head to Data platform > Custom attributes 

In the attributes manager you can see the following data: 

• Name of attribute 
• Data type 
• # of customers using the attribute 
• When the attribute was last updated 
• Who updated the attribute last

You can retire an attribute you don't want to use any longer by clicking on the Archive button on the right. This will remove the attribute from the customer profile page as well as the segmentation filter. Archived attributes will be moved to the bottom of the list. 

You can revive a retired attribute by clicking on the Unarchive button.
