First Sync

Right after you install, SegmentIQ imports your store data. While it runs, you'll see Setting up SegmentIQ with the percentage complete.

What happens during the first sync

  1. Fetching order history — imports the last 12 months of orders
  2. Reading customer segments — reads your segments and which customers belong to them
  3. Computing discount metrics — calculates discount spend by code and segment
  4. Finalising — prepares Home so it loads quickly

When it's done, SegmentIQ opens Home automatically. You'll also get a one-off welcome email at your store's contact address.

How long does it take?

Usually 1–3 minutes. Stores with a very large order history can take longer.

Can I leave the page?

Yes. The sync runs in the background, so you can close the app and come back later.

After the first sync

New and updated orders arrive automatically, and segment membership refreshes every night. You don't need to sync again unless you want a full refresh.
