Include data fields in a persona rule

Describes the data fields you can include in a persona rule in Optimizely Configured Commerce.

A persona is built on the user and customer characteristics that you add to a persona rule. You select these characteristics from groups of similar characteristics like the data fields on the Customer screen. You can also use characteristics outside of the Admin Console like the shopper's location. The groups of similar characteristics appear in the Criteria Type drop down field in the Rule Manager. When you choose a Criteria Type the remaining fields in the Rule Manager are updated to display only the fields you need to complete for that Criteria Type. The following tables list each Criteria Type and the data fields that must be completed to build the persona rule.
