Dynamic customer tags have to be set up under Field mapping. If you’ve created a campaign with a survey element, you should see the name of the survey listed under OptiMonk input fields. Here, simply select Customer tags from the dropdown. By doing that, survey elements will be converted automatically into Shopify customer tags. Please note that only NEW subscribers will receive a tag based on which survey element they have chosen.

9) To finish the setup, click on Done


2. How to test your Dynamic customer tags before activating your campaign?

1) If you would like to test how your Dynamic customer tags work before activating your campaign, you can do that in Live Preview. Go back to Editor and click on Preview.

4. Thinks to keep in mind when using Dynamic Customer Tags

❗️ Please note Dynamic Customer Tags will only work for NEW subscribers! This means that if you already got someone's contact in Shopify, they will not receive a tag, but if you have a NEW subscriber, they will be transferred to Shopify along with the tag based on which survey element they have chosen.
