For ingesting your Iterable records and sending them to your warehouse destinations via RudderStack, refer to the Iterable Cloud Extract documentation.

Iterable is a popular growth marketing platform that lets you maximize customer interaction and improve your customers' overall LTV (Life Time Value).

How RudderStack creates the event payload

This section details how RudderStack receives the data from the Iterable source platform and creates the resulting payload.

A sample payload sent by Iterable is shown below:

{
  "email": "docs@iterable.com",
  "userId": "1",
  "eventName": "hostedUnsubscribeClick",
  "dataFields": {
    "country": "United States",
    "city": "San Jose",
    "campaignId": 1074721,
    "ip": "192.168.0.1",
