Changelog/Unexpected/unplanned event properties inheriting shared property metadata
Analytics·Aug 14, 2025

Unexpected/unplanned event properties inheriting shared property metadata

Customers editing their shared event property metadata will now see that metadata (descriptions, visibility, etc.) reflected across all events that use that property (excluding event-level property overrides), even if they were unplanned on the event.

What it is

Description: Customers editing their shared event property metadata will now see that metadata (descriptions, visibility, etc.) reflected across all events that use that property (excluding event-level property overrides), even if they were unplanned on the event.

Why: Previously, in order to see any property metadata (like descriptions, or having a visibility set to Hidden), customers were required to plan properties on events. But this was unintuitive for many customers. Customers often found that if they set a property to Hidden that they were still able to see that property on most of their events.

Where: Event property dropdowns, or other locations where descriptions and the like are used

Available in EUDC: Yes
