You can transfer contact activity data using different methods depending on your pricing plan.

Basic Functionality

Important

If you can’t find an export option in the interface of your platform, contact their support.

To transfer contact activity via API, use the Add/update contacts API method for uploading your mobile token base, and the Generate past events method for historical event data. More >

The disadvantage is that it’s impossible to consider all touchpoints, identify the categories of links that generated clicks, set date ranges, and summarize the number of responses.

Growth and Enterprise

When subscribed to the Growth or Enterprise plan, you can transfer the following additional data:

  • All open dates;
  • Clicks by links and categories;
  • Transactions from campaigns;
  • Any other statuses and actions of users.

In addition, you can connect external data sources and additional tables with data on each subscriber.

To do this, export data from ESP in multiple tables (separate list of open dates, list of feedback dates, list of unsubscribe dates, etc.), put them into tables, add additional fields and attributes, import them to the external database of BigQuery or PostgreSQL, and set up connectors between identifiers of subscribers, campaign and content.

The advantage of this method is that you can do advanced segmentation and build segments based on all events of the subscriber's life cycle.

The disadvantage is that this method is more complex. You may need help from specialists so that you can set up import and connectors between identifiers.

You also need data about all their interactions with your company both online and offline: past purchases, search history and page views, etc. To transfer this data to Reteno, use the following ways:
