Payload Supported Data Types

Supported Data Types

• string – (type=string), will be represented as textbox in Send Experience UI if inputRequired = true. User could enter anything in such a text box. (inputRequired could be true/false)
• number – (type=number), will be represented as textbox in Send Experience UI if inputRequired = true. Such text box will accept only numbers and decimal point as valid input. (inputRequired could be true/false)
• boolean – (type=boolean) If inputRequired = true will be represented as toggle button (Yes/No) in Send Experience UI (inputRequired could be true/false)

Note: SDK supports only true/false. If developer’s app support only yes/no, or 1/0, then he/she needs to use the “string” data type. Even though UI would show Yes/No toggle button, but we will send true/false to SDK. Please note that true or false values should be entered without quotes. However, if user wants to force marketer to enter the value, he/she could enter empty string “” only when the inputRequired is true.

• object – (type=object) – NO Send Experience UI – pass through only ( data need to be escaped so that it doesn’t break JSON syntax – see example above – inputRequired is false only)
• datetime – (type=datetime) – format date/time as a String using ISO-18601 (inputRequired should be false) Datetime format in ISO-18601 is:
