Create an Interaction type

Learn how to create an interaction type in the Data Modeler.

This feature is available only in tenants provisioned for Reltio Intelligent 360.

Interaction is an action that involves one or more entities and generates recordable effect that can be logged as data. For example, an individual can send an email to others, or an organization can place a purchase order.

You can define different types of interactions and their taxonomies in the Business configuration of your Reltio tenant. This helps you model and manage how different entities engage.

Using the Data Modeler, you can:

Create and manage interaction definitions and related objects.
View and manage individual interaction components.
Define interaction type properties such as URI, label, and description.
Add mandatory member types to represent key participants in an interaction.

To create new Interaction types:

Navigate to Data Modeler > Interaction types
Select + CREATE NEW
Enter the following details:
Name
Enter a name that will display in the URI
Display Name
Name displayed in the MDM UI (Hub)
Add + Member Types (mandatory) and enter:

Create and edit interaction type attributes

Select SAVE AND ADD ATTRIBUTES to add attributes to your Interaction types.
1. Enter the Name, Display name and Description of the interaction type attribute.
2. From the Data type dropdown, select the data type of the attribute.
3. Enable the Faceted toggle if you want to include this attribute in the Faceted search.
4. Enable the Grouping attribute toggle if you want to view interactions in the profile grouped by this attribute. For more information about grouping attributes, see Append interactions using Groupkeys.
  
  Note: You can select only one attribute as the grouping attribute. If you select this toggle key for an attribute when a grouping attribute already exists, you will receive a message notifying the same and asking if you want to replace this attribute as the grouping attribute.
Select SAVE to save the member types.
Select SAVE AND ADD ANOTHER to add multiple attributes to the interaction type.

Create more Interactive type attributes

Select an Interaction type (row).
Select CREATE NEW.
Return to step 7 and repeat subsequent steps until you've added all Interaction type attributes.

After you create and save the interaction type attributes in the Data Modeler they become part of your tenant's configuration.
