Identify (Sync User Profile)

identify-sync-user-profile page anchor

Use Identify calls to sync user profile data to Taguchi. When configuring mappings in the destination setup:

  1. Select Sync User Profile.
  2. Define the Event type as Identify.

Segment maps user traits to corresponding Taguchi fields, sending them to Taguchi as a subscriber profile.


Use Track calls to sync event data to Taguchi. When configuring mappings in the destination setup:

  1. Select Sync Event.
  2. Define the Event type as Track.

Segment maps user actions to corresponding Taguchi fields, sending them to Taguchi as subscriber events.


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(link takes you to an external page).

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.


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