Recurly

Recurly is a subscription management and billing platform. The Recurly integrated platform simplifies the automation of the subscription lifecycle at scale by enabling teams to manage and optimize the subscriber experience—from testing new plans, offers, and promotions to managing payment methods, integrations, and insights.

This integration is maintained by Recurly.

About the integration

The integration between Recurly and Braze simplifies the process of sharing subscription data with Braze, enabling targeted communication with customers.

• Leverage Recurly subscription lifecycle events (for example, subscription renewals, pauses, or cancels) in Braze to trigger personalized campaigns and communications.
• Leverage Recurly subscription data (for example, subscription plans, add-ons, or status) to create and manage Braze users, segments, and Canvases to execute cohort-specific campaigns and communications.
• Send Recurly data directly to Braze, enabling additional messaging use cases and reducing developmental overhead costs.

Additional details around using Recurly with Braze can be found in the Recurly Docs.

Prerequisites

Integration

Before you begin, make sure you have active accounts on both Braze and Recurly.

Connect Recurly to Braze

1. In Recurly, go to Integrations > Braze. When first navigating to the Braze integration configuration page in Recurly, the interface will prompt you to connect the two systems.

2. Provide the following credentials:

• Instance URL: The Braze REST endpoint of the instance you are provisioned to.
• API Key (Identifier): The Braze REST API key that Recurly should use when sending requests to Braze.

Remember to copy the URL of your Braze instance. For example, your URL might look like:

1
<https://dashboard-03.braze.com/dashboard/app_usage?locale=en>

3. After you enter your credentials, click Connect.

Using this integration

Supported identifiers

Recurly uses an account’s account_code as the external_id in Braze. Because of this, the account_code of your Recurly accounts should correspond with your Braze user’s external_id.

Custom events

For effective customer engagement, you must configure custom events in Braze to receive events triggered by Recurly. Ensure to include each event from Recurly for thorough data integration. These events can also be tracked within Braze analytics. Once configured, these custom events can be used to segment users or personalize messaging.

Batching and rate limiting

Because Recurly uses the Braze /users/track endpoint, the integration is subject to standard Braze rate limits of 50,000 requests per minute.

특정 구독 수명 주기 이벤트를 반복적으로 일괄 처리하여 Braze에 대한 단일 API 호출로 처리하여 요청 횟수를 줄입니다.

• 단일 요청으로 동시에 생성된 여러 구독을 반복적으로 일괄 처리하여 전송합니다.
• 계정에 대한 여러 개의 동시 갱신을 하나의 요청으로 반복적으로 일괄 처리합니다.
• 동일한 모델 구독 수명 주기 이벤트를 한 번의 요청으로 반복적으로 전송합니다. 예를 들어, 결제와 함께 새로 생성된 인보이스는 Recurly Invoice Created 및 Recurly Successful Payment 커스텀 이벤트가 모두 포함된 하나의 API 요청을 생성합니다.

Batches are sent to Braze in groups of up to 75 events at a time. For example, if 100 subscriptions were created at once, Recurly would make two API requests to Braze. See batching User Track requests for details.
