Export Audiences
Exporting Lytics audiences to Klaviyo allows you to enhance your Klaviyo user base with new users or update existing users with cross-channel data from Lytics.
Integration Details
- Implementation Type: Server-side Integration.
- Implementation Technique: REST API Integration - Audience Trigger Integration
- Frequency: Real-time Integration with an optional one-time Backfill of the audience after job setup.
- Resulting data: Lytics users that are members of the selected audiences are exported to Klaviyo and added to the selected list. Lytics users can be exported to an existing list or a new list. Only known users (with an email) are exported.
This integration utilizes the Klaviyo API to send users to a list in Klaviyo. Once the export is started, the job will:
- Check if an existing list was selected. If not, create a new list with the name provided in the configuration. If no name is provided, create a new list with the name format
Lytics {Date}. - Run a backfill by creating or updating existing users in Klaviyo. Users will be subscribed to a list by default. Otherwise, users are force added to a list.
- After a backfill, the job will receive real-time updates when a user enters or exits the audience.
- For each user entering the selected audience(s), the job will create or update the user in Klaviyo and by default subcribe the user or force add the user to the Klaviyo list. Only known users with valid email identifiers are included in the export.
- For each user exiting the selected audience(s), the job will remove the user from the selected list.
Larger audiences may take a few days to be completely added to a list due to Klaviyo API limitations.
