Distribute unique promo codes in the email campaign

Hello!

I am launching an iOS mobile app soon and in order to promote it I am going to create promo codes that I'd like to send to my email subscribers. The way Apple handles promo codes is it creates a bunch of unique one-time codes which I can export and then use. But because they are one-time-use promo codes, I cannot send the same code to all of my subscribers, but each one rather needs to recieve their own unique one. And I am wondering if there is any way within Intercom to handle it automatically, rather than me going and adding a custom property to every subscriber manually (which I just cannot imagine being able to do).

Thank you in advance!

Hey @olena m11​, there's no way for Intercom to automatically define a value for a custom attribute such as a promo code. You'd likely need to write a script on your backend to determine unique values for each user and then update them via our API (or, alternatively, populate these in a column in a CSV import containing your user list).
