As you build out your marketing ecosystem, you'll need to incorporate web tracking capabilities into your website. Higher Logic Thrive Marketing Professional (Thrive Marketing Professional) web tracking provides you these insights as known visitors come to your website, spend some time, and interact with the pages. Inserting interaction tracking JavaScript at key points on your web pages will allow you to do extremely narrow targeting based on the behaviors that the people you communicate with are exhibiting.
Data is sent from Thrive Marketing Professional once a day. In the event your iMIS bridge is temporarily down, the writebacks will be queued and subsequently sent when the bridge is functioning. This can be a significant amount of data, so make sure that you have a good business case and a plan to harvest insights from this data.
NOTE: If you don't have web tracking enabled, create a case for assistance.
User-defined table structure
You must create a user-defined table to work with this writeback. See User-Defined Tables to learn the initial steps to create a user-defined table.
IMPORTANT: The user-defined table is required in iMIS in order for these writebacks to properly function. If the writeback feature is activated but the required table does not exist or is incorrectly formatted, the writeback will be disabled in Thrive Marketing Professional in order to prevent issues with the connection to iMIS.
Below is the table structure for the INFORMZ_WEB_TRACK table.
WARNING: Name the tables and columns (fields) using the exact names and data types indicated below. If the names are not identical, the writeback will fail.
