5. Integration Data

The Privy to ReSci integration takes just a few minutes to set up, and allows seamless transfer of captured email data from Privy to ReSci for use in your email campaigns.

This supports specialized fields such as registration_source, birthday, and even custom attributes for proper tracking, and allows you to use the instant transactional Welcome stage inside of Cortex.

Installing the Privy Plugin

1. Navigate to the Integrations Center in Cortex by navigating to "Cortex" and then "Integrations."
   
2. Search for "Privy" or click on the Privy plugin to open the Privy plugin page.
   
3. Click Install and wait for for the plugin to complete installation.
   
4. Once installed, click Generate a new key under the "API KEY" section and use this key to enter into Privy – this will be used to enable the integration and for authentication.
   

Enabling the integration 

Step 1: Enabling the Privy Integration

1. Go to your Linked accounts page and click on Integrations.
2. Click on "Retention Science."
   
3. Enter in the API Key you generated in the Privy Plugin from the Integrations Center in Cortex.
   

Step 2: Enable the Privy x ReSci integration at the campaign level

1. Each campaign should have Sync enabled by default. Click on the Campaign you'd like to enable the integration for (this creates users in Cortex after form submission and triggers our Welcome Stage email).
   
2. Click the "Automation" Tab and then click + New Rule.
   
3. Select your linked Retention Science account and select the list "All Users."
4. Click Save.
   
5. Thats it! Just repeat for any campaign that you want to be synced directly to ReSci.

Adding JavaScript to Privy

To optimize our user tracking for visitors to your site, we add a layer of JavaScript on top of the Privy capture forms. Please see below for the instructions on this process:

1. Navigate to the "Integrations" page under your account settings (top right nav).
   
2. Click on Customizations on the left hand menu under "Business Settings."
   
3. Under the "Custom Javascript" section, copy and paste the below code snippet into the "Conversion Pixel" section (see above screenshot for reference):

   <!-- RetentionScience start -->
   <script type="text/javascript">
   (function() {
    var rScix = document.createElement('script');
    rScix.type = 'text/javascript';
    rScix.async = true;
    rScix.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://' : 'http://') + 'd1stxfv94hrhia.cloudfront.net/waves/v3/w.js';
    (document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0] || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]).appendChild(rScix);
    })();
   
   window._rsq = window._rsq || [];
    window._rsq.push(['_setSiteId', 'site_id']); // replace site_id with your static Site ID
    window._rsq.push(['_enableOnsite']);
   
   window._rsq.push(['_setUserEmail', '{{ contact.email }}']);
   window._rsq.push(['_setAction', 'email_entered']);
   window._rsq.push(['_track']);
   </script>
   <!-- RetentionScience end -->

4. Click Save Changes at the bottom of the page and you're done!

Integration Data

Privy allows you to create configurable fields on the campaign. We support the standard user attributes that match our user schema in addition to custom attributes that have been set up for your account.

Standard Attributes

Please see below for the default attributes we support:

Custom Attributes

1. Email help@retentionscience.com to ensure your custom attributes are configured for your account.
2. Once these custom attributes are configured for your account, they will appear as filters automatically in Smart Segments  under "Custom Features."
