Segment is a leading customer data platform (CDP). 1Flow’s Web (Actions) Destination integration with Segment allows you to automatically stream events and user data you’re already tracking into 1Flow. This allows you to reach out to the right users at the right time, without extra engineering efforts.
When you use the Actions destination, Segment loads the 1Flow SDK for you. This means you do not need to make any code changes to your website or web application in order to start using 1Flow to collect insights. All the events and user attributes that you’re sending to Segment will be available for use in 1Flow, too.
If you use this integration, do not install 1Flow’s JavaScript SDK separately into the code base, since Segment SDK will automatically load the SDK for you already.
