Using my.token in Change Program Member Data New Value

[Vidhi_Kare]

Hi,

Hope everyone is doing well.

I just had a quick question if anyone has come across the scenario.

I am using Change Program Member Data in my Flow step and in new value, I used my.token value. I have created a score type token so I expected it to increment the value each time the member will run through the program. As it is doing for change score in flow step.

However, for Change Program Member Data , it is not working like a score token, is it because it is a string datatype field.

Please find screenshot of flowstep & token :

Any help will be appreciated.

Kind Reagrds,

Yes, Score tokens go with Score fields and Change Score.

Hi,

Thank you for reply. I appreciate it.

Is there a way to increment a value in Change Program Member Data in Flow step each time a member goes through the program.

Or If one of the person fields is holding the incremental value i.e. the score of a member,  then is it possible to use that field in New Value in Change Program Member Data so that it will also reflect the changed number. I think since it is string data type so it will just print the name and not the value inside the person field.

Kind Regards,

Vidhi

You've gotta use a Score. Even using a webhook won't work as a workaround, since it can't write back PMCFs.

Hi,

Just an update. I tried using one person field in New Value where type is Score but yes it is just printing the name which I understand why as the Program Member Field's type is String.

I was hoping if it was possible to use Score datatype filed for Program Member too, that would have resolved my issue.

Kind Regards,

Yeah... unfortunately not possible to create a PMCF with type of Score at this time.

I posted an idea a while ago to achieve just that: https://nation.marketo.com/t5/ideas/progrem-member-custom-score-fields/idi-p/309190
