Profiles UI

You can create a Profiles project via RudderStack dashboard. It generates outputs based on the pre-defined library projects. However, you can augment these outputs by downloading the Profiles project and updating it manually.

This guide lists the detailed steps to create a Profiles project in the RudderStack dashboard.

1. Log in to the RudderStack dashboard.
2. From the left navigation bar, navigate to Unify > Profiles and click Create profile.
