name* | String | The name identifier for the target group. The character limit for the name is 200 characters. |
preferredTillId | Number | Identifier for a preferred till. |
trackingType* | String | The type of tracking the milestone is created for. Supported values: - Default (single target tracking) - Unified (tracking multiple targets as a unit) - Streaks (continuous tracking across cycles) - Capping (track and cap points over a period). To create a streak, use STREAKS . |
targetEvaluationType | String | The evaluation strategy for the targets. Supported values: - FIXED_CALENDAR_WINDOW : Runs for a defined period from the start date- CYCLIC_WINDOW : Starts after user's first transaction- PERIOD_AGNOSTIC_WINDOW : Continues until the user meets the target. |

frequencyType | Enum | The frequency of each cycle. Supported values: Monthly, Quarterly, Half-yearly, Yearly, Weekly. |
userCreated | Boolean | If true, a user-created target group is created. This allows customers to set and be rewarded for their own goals. |
frequency | Number | The frequency count, relevant to the frequencyType . |
recurringCycles | Number | The number of cycles for which the tracking recurs. |
periods | Object | An array of period objects containing details about individual tracking periods. |

targets.filters.entityIds | Array | The IDs of the entities to which the filter is applied. |
targets.name | String | The name identifier for the target. |
targets.targetEntity | Enum | The KPI being tracked. Supported values: TRANSACTION, LINEITEM, EVENT, REWARDS. Use TRANSACTION or LINEITEM for transactional KPIs. Use EVENT for behavioural/EMF events. Use REWARDS for tracking reward-based KPIs like points. |
targets.eventName | String | The name of the behavioural event that triggers the target. |
targets.targetType* | Enum | Type of target. Supported values: QUANTITY, SALES, COUNT, VISIT, GROSS_SALES, REGULAR_POINTS, PROMOTIONAL_POINTS, ALL_POINTS, EXTENDED_FIELD, EVENT_ATTRIBUTE. To use SUM for behavioural events, set to EVENT_ATTRIBUTE and define it using extendedFieldInfo . |
extendedFieldInfo | Object | Details of the event attribute being tracked. Applicable when targetType is SUM . |
extendedFieldInfo.name* | String | Event on which the sum calculation is performed. E.g., number of 'add to cart' events. |
extendedFieldInfo.aggregateFunction | Enum | Aggregate function used to evaluate behavioural events. Supported: SUM . E.g., use SUM to track total cart value and validate against target. |
defaultValues | Object | An array of objects defining default values for the target. |
defaultValues.defaultValue | Integer | A default value used during target evaluation. |
