I am having trouble connecting Adobe AEM 6.2(author) to Adobe Target server. Getting “401 Unauthorized” response when try connecting through cloud configuration from AEM.

I do have the “Approver” privilege in Adobe Target  but not sure what else has to be done to allow connection from AEM.

Below is the response that I received from Adobe, I was able to connect successfully with below login information

************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Please try to connect using the following information:
Client Code : <Reach out to Adobe>
Email Id : <Reach out to Adobe>
Password : <Reach out to Adobe>

Let me try to explain why you need use above account: Target actually have 2 versions: one is Test & Target (we called Target Classic), the other is Target Standard. You are able to access Target with your Adobe ID, that is to the Target Standard; In your AEM integration experiment, that is to Target Classic which don’t support Adobe ID authentication.  In order to make your AEM integration success, Sandbox team provides this general email address and password.

Hi Hari,

         I'm having the same issue, I'm able to connect to Adobe Target but when I use the same credentials in order to configure AEM Target cloud services I'm getting a  "401 Unauthorized" error.

How do you solve this issue ??

 

Thanks in advance

Hi Selvan,

I'm also getting "401 Unauthorized" error while trying to connect AEM & Adobe Target. Have you solved this problem?

Who is the 'sandbox team' mentioned in the response from Adobe client care.

Thank You in advance.

Hi 

The solution to this problem is that:

1. You need to have Adobe Target Classic access.

-> Validate it by logging to https://admin.testandtarget.omniture.com/

2. If you do not have the access, then reach out to support (daycare) and get credentials for it. Once you will have the credentials you would be able to connect properly.

 PS:- Sometimes even after getting the access from the support, you may not be able to get access and 401 error still persist. The reason for that would be because sometimes you would get access for https://admin10.testandtarget.omniture.com/ rater than https://admin.testandtarget.omniture.com/ [sometimes user remain in blocked state] So just make sure, you will be able to get access for "https://admin.testandtarget.omniture.com/"

 

The recommended way for connecting AEM with Adobe Target is VIA DTM.
