Creating achievements

Create an achievement to check if a customer has reached a defined target.

Feature access

Only admins have access to this feature.

You can create achievements in Talon.One via the Campaign Manager or via the Management API after you enable the achievements feature in your campaign.

To create an achievement:

1. On the left-side menu of your campaign, click Achievements > Create Achievement.

2. Select the type of achievement you want to create.

3. For one-time and recurring on expiration achievements, choose how the achievement starts, ends, or resets for your customers:

   • User action: The achievement ends or resets relative to when the customer started the achievement.

   • Fixed schedule: The achievement starts, ends, or resets for all customers following a fixed schedule.

     Examples: Achievement types and activation policies

     Achievement type	Activation policy	Achievement period	Achievement start date	User action	Achievement end date
     One-time	User action	1 day	N/A	10 October 2023, 09:30:45	11 October 2023, 09:30:45
     One-time	Fixed schedule	1 month	10 October 2023, 00:00:00	18 October 2023, 10:20:00	10 November 2023, 00:00:00
     Recurring on expiration	User action	3 months, last day of the month	N/A	10 October 2023, 09:30:45	31 January 2024, 23:59:59

4. In Name, enter a display name for the achievement.

   note

   When the campaign is running or after a customer makes progress in the achievement, you can change only the Achievement name and Description.

5. In API name, type an identifier for the achievement. It can be used for integration purposes.

6. (Optional) In Description, enter a description to help you identify the achievement.

7. In Target, enter the target value the customer must reach to complete the achievement.

8. (Optional) In one-time and recurring on expiration achievements, select End progress on achieving target to stop a customer's progress in an achievement after they reach the target.

9. For one-time user-action achievements, in Achievement period, define the period after which the achievement ends for each customer.

   tip

   • If you set the achievement period to 1 month, for example, you can select the Last day of the month checkbox for the achievement to end of reset on the last day of the month at 23:59:59.

10. For one-time fixed-schedule achievements, set the following options:

    • In Achievement start, set the achievement start date for all customers in the campaign. Individually, the achievement for each customer starts when the customer makes their first progress.
    • In Achievement end, set the achievement end date for all customers in the campaign.

11. For recurring user-action achievements, in Reset every, define the period after which the achievement ends and resets for each customer.

    tip

    • If you set the achievement period to 1 month, for example, you can select the Last day of the month checkbox for the achievement to end of reset on the last day of the month at 23:59:59.

12. For recurring fixed-schedule achievements, set the following options:
