The Client Name and Client Key properties come from that account. ## Configuration | Property | Usage | | --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Client Name | The client name that NuData issued for your account.The node sends it with the score request to authenticate against the NuData API. | | SDK Version | The version of the NuData SDK that collected the behavioral data. | | Client Key | The client key that NuData issued for your account.The node uses it to authenticate the score request against the NuData API. | | Placement Name | The name that identifies the specific widget placement in your NuData account. | | Placement Type | The category of journey in which the behavioral data was collected. | | Page Placement Number | The number that identifies the page on which the widget collected behavioral data, when a journey spans multiple pages. | | Placement Outcome | The outcome of the journey branch that contains the widget placement.Possible outcomes are: `Success`, `Account Does Not Exist`, `Invalid Password`, `Failure`, `None`.The node reports this value to NuData alongside the score request. | | Report Segment | Indicates the source of traffic. | | Placement Outcome | The Placement Outcome of the branch in the Journey. | | Captcha | Indicates whether a NuData captcha is included in the journey.Enable it when the journey presents a [NuData Captcha node](nudata-captcha.html) after the score result. | ## Outputs This node writes the following to the shared state: * `nuDataScoreResponse`: the NuData score and other risk analysis data. ## Callbacks This node doesn't send any callbacks. ## Outcomes The node has the following outcomes: * `Red` NuData returned the highest risk score. * `Yellow` NuData returned a medium risk score. * `Green` NuData returned the lowest risk score. * `Error` An error occurred while retrieving the NuData score. ## Errors This node doesn't log any error or warning messages of its own.
