Updated 2 years ago

You can append a tag to an existing customer.

In order to remove a tag, use Untag customer method. If you want to update some other customer attributes, use Update customer method.

➡️ Request

URL https://api.helpcrunch.com/v1/customers/<customer_id>/tags
Method PUT
Headers Authorization: Bearer <your_api_key>

<customer_id> is the identifier for the customer as given by HelpCrunch. It is required for this method and looks like a combination of numbers, for example 1568834.

Request Body Example

{
    "tags": [
        {
            "name": "Lead",
            "color": "#ccc"
        },
        {
            "name": "Black Friday"
        },
        {
            "name": "PPC"
        }
    ]
}


Tips

  • If you specify a non-existing tag, it will be automatically created, added to your account and appended to the customer.
  • You can assign any CSS color to the tag. If you don't specify it, the default #c377e0 color will be applied.
