Profile Store API (deprecated)

❗️

Deprecated

Visitor Intelligence and Profile Store are deprecated and no longer supported. For migration options to Optimizely Data Platform (ODP), contact your sales representative or customer success manager.

See Remove dependencies on Visitor Intelligence and Profile Store.

The Optimizely Profile Store API is separated from the Tracking API so that it has independent processing loads.

Note

Optimizely ships the API with Swagger documentation. Append /swagger to the root URL to access swagger documentation and test functionality. However, not all APIs are available for testing in production.

Tracking is based on the following concepts:

• Track events – Data about user behaviors that the installed Optimizely Tracking package automatically collects, such as visiting a page, clicking a link, and so on. From time-to-time, track event analyzes and consolidates the data into a profile.
• Profiles – Data about a site visitor or customer aggregate of track events in a scope. You can view profile data in Optimizely Visitor Intelligence or with the Profile Store API.
• Segments – A collection of profiles that match a conditions (using filter or query), such as visitors that previously responded to a campaign.
• Scope – Scope is a way of grouping Profile Store data to separate user interaction tracking based on for example brands or markets.

You can use HttpClient or a third-party REST client combined with a JSON library, to make calls to the Profile Store API.
