Personalization with Metavariables
Send information from your own database to the bot for a personalized experience.
Available on: Core | Advanced | Pro
Overview
Create a seamless personalized experience by passing customer information you already have to the bot — reducing customer effort and making the experience better.
For example, when someone is logged in to their account and accesses Ada on your site or in your app, you can pass information such as their name, email address, phone number, or account type from your database to the bot.
This is done with the help of metavariables.
Once set, your bot can greet people with a personalized “Hello first_name” instead of “Hello”. When it comes to a handoff to customer support, your logged-in customers won’t need to type their information again because the bot already knows it via the passed metafields!
