Supported methods

Natero supports the following methods, as specified in the Segment Spec.

Group

Send Group calls to provide updated metadata about the account that a user is associated with. For example:

analytics.group('accountId123', {
  name: 'Example Inc.',
  description: 'Description of Example Inc.'
});

Segment sends Group calls to Natero as a group event.

Identify

Send Identify calls to update detail about a user. For example:

analytics.identify('userId123', {
  email: 'john.doe@example.com'
});

Segment sends Identify calls to Natero as an identify event.

Track

Send Track calls to capture user actions within your application as features within Natero. For example:

analytics.track('Login Button Clicked')

Segment sends Track calls to Natero as a track events.

Engage

You can send computed traits and audiences generated using Engage to this destination as a user property. To learn more about Engage, schedule a demo.

For user-property destinations, an identify call is sent to the destination for each user being added and removed. The property name is the snake_cased version of the audience name, with a true/false value to indicate membership. For example, when a user first completes an order in the last 30 days, Engage sends an Identify call with the property order_completed_last_30days: true. When the user no longer satisfies this condition (for example, it’s been more than 30 days since their last order), Engage sets that value to false.

When you first create an audience, Engage sends an Identify call for every user in that audience. Later audience syncs only send updates for users whose membership has changed since the last sync.

Real-time to batch destination sync frequency

Real-time audience syncs to Natero may take six or more hours for the initial sync to complete. Upon completion, a sync frequency of two to three hours is expected.

Settings

Segment lets you change these destination settings from the Segment app without having to touch any code.
