Using Collected Data in Follow-Up Messages | Tarjeeh.ai
One of the most powerful features of Tarjeeh.ai is the ability to personalize your chatbot messages based on collected user data. By using custom fields, you can store subscriber-specific information like name, email, phone number, or any other detail and then dynamically use those data points in your follow-up messages.
This guide walks you through how to create custom fields in Tarjeeh.ai and use those fields in personalized WhatsApp messages within chatbot flows.
What Are Custom Fields and Why Use Them?
Custom fields in Tarjeeh.ai are user-defined data placeholders that let you collect and reuse subscriber information throughout your chatbot journey. These fields help you:
- Personalize messages with names, emails, or preferences.
- Store collected information for future campaigns or segmentation.
- Create advanced automation using dynamic conditions and content.
- Improve engagement and conversion by making conversations feel more human.
Step-by-Step Guide to Using Custom Field Data in Follow-Up Messages
🔹 Step 1: Access WhatsApp Subscriber Manager
Go to Subscriber Manager → WhatsApp Subscriber from your Tarjeeh.ai sidebar.
Click the Manage button → Select Manage Custom Fields.
🔹 Step 2: Create a New Custom Field
Click on the Create button to add a new field.
- Custom Field Name: Enter a unique identifier (e.g., full_name).
- Reply Type: Choose the appropriate format (Text, Email, Phone, Number, URL).
Then click Save.
🔹 Step 3: Insert Custom Fields into Your Message Flow
Open your chatbot flow and add or edit a message block. In the message configuration window:
- Click on the Custom → Field Name
- Insert any of your created custom fields using the syntax: #field_name#.
Example message:
Your data is:
Name: #full_name#
Phone: #User phn num#
Email: #User Email#
Address: #User Address#
This will dynamically insert each user’s data into the message.
Tips for Using Custom Field Data Effectively
- Always validate input: When collecting user input, use reply types like Email and Phone to ensure proper formatting.
- Use meaningful field names: Keep them short, lowercase, and descriptive (e.g., user_email, city).
- Test your flow: Preview the message with dummy data to confirm correct replacement.
- Combine with conditions: Use “Condition” blocks to check if a user has a value stored and branch logic accordingly.
- Avoid redundant questions: If a field is already populated, skip that step for returning users.
