Does segment support options for importing non-user level data? i.e. Product Catalog, Class Schedule etc. The use case would be to get a class schedule from Zoom api then when the actual attendee data is ingested the class metadata would be available as additional data points for segmenting etc.
Brian,
I did something similar where we loaded a product catalog in a separate Segment workspace and then “enriched” purchase information events by calling the Profile API and adding product details into the events based on the product SKU. This does require some custom function work, but it allowed for enrichment within the Segment environment.
Another option would be to leverage a data warehouse connection and enrich the customer profiles by matching class registrations with metadata stored in the warehouse.

Thanks Chris - I’m interested I how you ‘landed’ the product catalog data … via the API?
Warehouse pattern makes sense, though not data we have available there currently.
