Custom user properties
Custom user properties are custom fields that allow you to collect information about your users, through Cohort campaigns. These user properties can enrich your database and customize campaign targeting (text, number, boolean, date…). The values of these fields can also be sent and/or retrieved from your database. Once a new custom user property is created, it becomes available on every user record in Cohort. You can add them in challenge campaigns with Cohort form action for example.
