Record matching
Records can be matched from your source to your Klaviyo workspace by either an email or phone number.
Field mapping
You can sync columns from your source to Klaviyo's default and custom fields.
Syncing events
Hightouch supports syncing events to Klaviyo and assigning them to a user.
Track configuration
Hightouch allows you to choose the event name and event timestamp for a track event.
Note: Hightouch accepts a normal date time format for the timestamp, and automatically convert it to the format that Klaviyo requires.
Assigning events to profiles
Hightouch allows you to choose how you assign events to profiles. This is done by matching a column to a Klaviyo user identifier such as phone number or email.
Field mappings
Hightouch allows you to pass data to the event properties of a Klaviyo event.
Syncing lists
Hightouch supports syncing profiles to Klaviyo Lists.
Syncing profiles using emails or phone numbers to lists (regular and subscription lists) will automatically create any profiles that do not exist.
Note: When adding profiles to regular lists a Batch Profile Job is used.
Klaviyo lists
Hightouch supports automatically creating a new list for your sync. You can specify a custom name for this list, or Hightouch will use the name of the model.
Here, the model name List 1 will be used as the list name:
Sync modes
This integration supports Segment mode. New profiles will be inserted into the Klaviyo Lists. Profiles that are removed from the model will be removed from the list.
User identifiers

User consent
Previously, user consent could be added with any profile update/create request, like in Events. Now, user consent is configured at the Subscription List level.
