Use Account Lists EIDs in Drift

If you change the name of an Account List in RollWorks and you are using that Account List in Drift to define a Contact Segment, the new name will not sync automatically to Drift, and new visitors will no longer be added to your Drift Contact Segment.

If you change the name of your Account Lists often in RollWorks, we suggest using the Account List EID attribute (rwAccountListEID) instead of the Account List Name attribute (rwAccountList) when creating your Contact Segments in Drift. The Account List EID is a unique alphanumeric identifier for your Account Lists that will always remain the same.

 

To find the EID of a specific Account List:

  • Login to RollWorks and go to Audiences > Account Lists.
  • Click on the Account List you want.
  • The browser URL will include the Account List EID. This is the alphanumeric identifier between /accounts/ and ? 20.png
  • In the example the Account List EID is 6LP5XIH3CZETPEODTO8TAL.
