Create event type
Create an event type for the Timeline Series Config tool.
About this task
Events types reflect the kind of data you expect to appear in one of the SessionM activity logs. Customer data is perhaps the most common and can be related to events transpiring in a few different respects - engagement (or activity), location and purchase.
