About app tags in the Mobile Apps Library

• Tags are created under an App in the Mobile Apps Library and are the pieces of code responsible for triggering a study in your app.

• The piece of code that you add to your app is unique and always corresponds to the same tag.
• Each Tag can be associated with one study/segment combination at a time.
• In the Mobile Apps Library, you can associate a tag to a different study according to your needs.

Add a tag to an app

• A single Tag with the Start Method “Start App” is created by default in every App.
• This Tag can't be deleted.
• Tags won't trigger a study unless you associate a study/segment with it and both the study and segment are live.

1. Click your Username in the top right corner.
2. Select Account Settings.
