Event properties function as fields within an event. Prior to creating an event, it is necessary to establish the corresponding properties. This topic provides guidance on adding properties to events.
Explanation of the relationship between events and properties
Consider the Shopping Mall Checkout Page > Pay Now event, with the event code defined as mall_pay_click. Properties such as order ID (order_id), total price (total_price), delivery city (delivery_city), payment method (pay_way), and payment success status (is_pay_success) can be associated with this event.
Create event properties
Navigate to the Dataphin home page, select Tag > Event Center from the top menu bar.
From the left-side navigation pane, choose Event Center > Property Management.
On the Property Management page, click Add Property.
In the Add Property dialog box, fill in the necessary details for the property.
