Manual User Actions: Add a User, Reward, Referral or Event
How to Add a User, Reward, Referral or Event Manually.
The SaaSquatch portal allows you to add one-off Participants, Rewards, Referrals or Events.
Adding data manually will trigger any program automation such as goals and rewards.
A note on events and rewards: Events older than 2 years are not accessible via API or visible on the Participants page in the Admin Portal. However, you can continue to access historical data by running an event export report. Reward retraction and refunds will only be possible if the reward you want to retract/refund is based on an event less than two years old. Because retractions/refunds require the original event, they can't be processed using the copy of the event that remains in long-term storage.
