Editing external assets and activities

You can edit an existing external asset and its activities.

Good to know:

  • If you change an asset type's activities, past activity values don't change. If, for example, you change the name of an activity from "Signed Up" to "Registered," previous instances are listed as "Signed Up." Future instances are listed as "Registered." Gather data under current as well as future names if you want to capture historical as well as current values.
  • If you rename an external activity type, any response rules associated to that type will need to be updated. Learn more about response rules.
