Abandoned category campaigns - Importer setup

This page explains the technical setup required for your imported attributes in order to trigger abandoned category campaigns in Ometria.

The setup is only required if you were an Ometria customer before November 2019.

Custom importers

If you have a custom importer then you can use your existing attributes - as long as you tag them to your pages as described below.

You can also create new attributes by passing them to Ometria via our API.

How to create a new attribute

If you need to create a new attribute, you will need to use the push endpoint of our data API to set the type, id and label of the attribute. 

The following payload represents a single attribute being pushed to Ometria: 

```json
[
   {
     "@type": "attribute",
     "type": "category",
     "id": "fathers-day",
     "label": "Father’s day"
   }
]
```

The above attribute data could be submitted to Ometria via CURL using this command:

```bash

curl -X POST -H 'X-Ometria-Auth: YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"@type":"attribute","type":"category","id":"fathers-day","label":"Father’s day"}]' 'https://api.ometria.com/v2/push'

```

Tagging attributes to pages

Once you’ve created your attributes, the page attribute needs to be passed to the ‘init’ method of the Ometria JavaScript Interaction API as a pageData object for any page type.

For example:

ometria.init('homepage', pageData, "storeID");

The required pageData is a JSON object, in which you’ll need to specify an ‘attributes’ key containing a list of objects representing the “id” and “type” of each attribute for a given page:

• The “id” key is your unique identifier represented by a string.
• The “type” key is the attribute type represented by a string.

For example:

 { "attributes": [ { "id": "dresses", "type": "category" },
 { "id": "celebrations", "type": "category" } ] } 

Simply pass your desired attributes via the ‘init’ method as follows:

ometria.init("listing",
 { "attributes": [ { "id": "dresses", "type": "category" },
 { "id": "celebrations", "type": "category" } ] }, "storeID");

Shopify importer

Ometria supports the targeting of page visits for Shopify collections.

Update your liquid tags

We’ve added a new value to our Ometria script:

collection_handle: {{collection.handle|json}}

Follow the steps in the Shopify integration setup to update the Ometria JavaScript with the value above.

Here’s an example of the standard script - please check with your development agency if you have a custom Shopify integration:

<script> if (typeof ometria == 'undefined') window.ometria = {}; ometria.raw_data={ template:
{{template|json}}, cart_total:{{cart.total_price|json}},
 cart_count:{{cart.item_count|json}}, cart:[],
product_id:{{product.id|json}},
 search_count:{{search.results_count|json}},
 search_terms:{{search.terms|json}},
 collection_id:{{collection.id|json}},
 collection_count:{{collection.products_count|json}},
 collection_handle: {{collection.handle|json}},
 current_page:{{current_page|json}}, 
shop_currency:{{shop.currency|json}}, 
Customer_email:{{customer.email|json}} };
