I'm familiar with creating and onboarding .sync and .overwrite files containing CRM data into Audience Manager but so far have only onboarded text values. We have a new use-case and would like to onboard numeric data from our CRM into Audience Manager and keep the trait values numeric and not convert it to text.

For example, currently all trait values we onboard are text.

userID123<tab>"classification"="a", "grade"="b"  >and so on. This works fine.

We'd like to onboard numeric trait values so as an example,

userID123<tab>"classification"="a", "grade"="b", "income"="100,000"

If I onboard a .sync similar to the above example I believe the 100,000 will be inserted as text. The ultimate goal if we're able to onboard numeric valuesis to create traits using operators such as income < 100,000 or income >= 100,000 and so on. We can define the range in the trait expression and have IDs qualify based on it.

Can Audience Manager onboard numeric values and how would it look like in a .sync or .overwrite file?
