What are Extraction Attributes?
Extraction Attributes allow you to pull specific values from unstructured payload data coming from your connections. Instead of needing to adjust your data pipeline to capture new parameters, you can create an attribute that extracts exactly what you need.
This is particularly useful when you're working with integrations that send dynamic, variable data—like form responses, custom URL parameters, or other flexible fields that change based on user input or campaign configuration.
Accessing Extraction Attributes
To create an Extraction Attribute:
Navigate to the Attributes section in adtribute
Click Create New Attribute
Select Extraction as the configuration type
Prerequisites: The relevant connection must already be set up in adtribute. Extraction Attributes are only available for specific definitions where unstructured data exists and can be meaningfully extracted.
Setting Up an Extraction Attribute
Follow these steps to configure your Extraction Attribute:
Select the relevant aggregation type
Select the relevant data type
Set configuration type to Extraction
Select the customized definition - Choose which integration or data source contains the parameter you want to extract
Provide the extraction key - Enter the specific key or field name that identifies the value you want to extract
The key you provide tells adtribute exactly which piece of data to pull from the unstructured payload. When unsure about which customized definition or key to select, let us know and we will assist you.
Important Considerations
Extraction Attributes are only available for select definitions where unstructured data exists
The extraction key must exactly match the field name in the source data
If the key doesn't exist in a particular payload, the attribute will return no value for that record
