Available effects

Define effects in the Rule Builder. They are triggered when all (or at least one) of the conditions of a rule are valid, following the logic WHEN this happens THEN do that.

Example

You can trigger effects to display a notification, apply a discount to your customer's session or create a referral code.

This page lists the available effects. Once you have added effects to your rules via the Campaign Manager, the rest of the workflow happens via the Integration API.

Note for technical users

The effects triggered by Talon.One are returned to your Application, such as your ecommerce website, and it is up to you and your development team to decide how to apply them.

Learn how to process effects in the Developer Docs and see the JSON structure of each of them on thea API effects page.

The available effects appear sorted by these categories:

Most of the effects are always available, but some are only available when you enable specific features in your campaign.
