Components

User Property Name (Required)

The name of the user property.

Display Name

Because user properties are referenced by name in Snaps, the names cannot be edited and must be unique per bot. If you wish to have a name that is more user-friendly for demographics, consider using a display name.

Description

Create a description to help people understand what this user property is for.

Hide in Analytics

Checking this box will hide the user property and value breakdown from the 'Demographics' page in analytics.

User Property Type

A dropdown that allows you to select the data type you can set the user property as - the default is set to 'string'. There are 7 Javascript data types available: string, boolean, integer, float, set, time, date.

Value In

Value In is used if the user property type selected is 'set'. Set objects are collections of values that are unique in the Set's collection.

Add a new value by clicking the '+' and press enter after you have typed the value.
