Hi,

Good article, I wanted to Add multiple user attributes when the user opts/registers for push notification so that i can use it in the Segmentation.

I see that i can create User attributes (variables) in the KPNS console (Menu --> Settings --> Configuration --> User Attributes)..

But i cant find any Client side API to send these variables - Would you be able to help ?

Thanks

Have you looked into this API?

@Rose Undewwood​ Yes, this API looks like Creating a Audience Attribute dynamically (similar to UI function).

What i wanted to achieve is how to use this Attribute to get/store the values for every user, e.g. User preferred news category (or) Age. So that i can use it in my segments.

Once you create an attribute and mark it as required, every time that you create a user this data will need to be provided. So if you would like to associate an attribute like age:

  1. Create an attribute called as "age" and mark it as required.
  2. Invoke the create API and provide the age data using the API like below. This will create an user with the age.
