Problem

server-destination-klaviyo assigns a mapping rule's settings.value to properties.value, but sets valueCurrency on the event attributes. Klaviyo reads revenue from the attributes, so today the currency is transmitted with no amount to denominate and revenue never registers.

Evidence

EventsApi.createEvent passes the body through ObjectSerializer.serialize(body, "EventCreateQueryV2"), which builds the request from attributeTypeMap (valuevalue, valueCurrencyvalue_currency) while properties is typed object and passes through untouched.

Running the current payload through the real SDK serializer produces:

// before — currency with nothing to denominate
"properties": { "OrderId": "ORD-123", "value": 99.99 },
"value_currency": "EUR"
// note: no top-level "value"

// after
"properties": { "OrderId": "ORD-123" },
"value": 99.99,
"value_currency": "EUR"

Confirmed end-to-end against klaviyo-api@22.0.1 (POST https://a.klaviyo.com/api/events, revision 2026-04-15). The Create Event reference documents value as "A numeric, monetary value to associate with this event."

Change

value moves next to valueCurrency on the attributes. properties is otherwise untouched — a value can still be mapped there through the rule's data mapping if it is also wanted as a segmentable custom property.

The revenueEvent step example is updated accordingly, and no longer maps value through both data and settings so the two paths read distinctly. Zod describe() text and the website prose are corrected in the same commit since they described the broken behaviour.

Verification

  • npm run verify:touched -- server-destination-klaviyo — green
  • npm run verify:affected — 77/77 green
  • Package tests: 8/8. The step example was changed first and watched fail before the fix.

Changeset included (patch).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Revenue values sent to Klaviyo are now serialized as event-level value attributes instead of event properties.
    • Currency is included as value_currency when configured.
    • Invalid or unresolved revenue mappings no longer produce a value attribute.
  • Documentation

    • Clarified how revenue values and currencies are mapped for Klaviyo events.

A mapping rule's `settings.value` was assigned to `properties.value`, where
Klaviyo treats it as a segmentable custom property and ignores it for revenue
reporting, while `valueCurrency` was emitted on the event attributes with no
sibling `value` to denominate.

`klaviyo-api`'s ObjectSerializer builds the request body from
EventCreateQueryV2ResourceObjectAttributes.attributeTypeMap, which maps
`value` -> `value` and `valueCurrency` -> `value_currency` at the attributes
level; `properties` is typed `object` and passes through untouched. So the
currency was reaching Klaviyo and the amount never was.

Both now sit together on the attributes. Properties are unaffected -- map a
value through the rule's `data` mapping to also keep it as a custom property.

Klaviyo revenue mapping

Revenue attribute emission
packages/server/destinations/klaviyo/src/push.ts, packages/server/destinations/klaviyo/src/examples/step.ts
Resolved revenue values are assigned to the Klaviyo event attributes. The example keeps ItemNames in properties and removes the generic revenue property mapping.
Mapping contract and release documentation

Descriptions and release notes specify that settings.value sets the event-level value, with valueCurrency added when configured.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to bee02

The change moves revenue into Klaviyo’s event attributes, but the event payload and timestamp handling still need to match Klaviyo’s generated request contract to avoid malformed or rejected requests. Merge should wait until this alignment and the related test updates are completed.
