Edge Ingestion of Individual Profile Attributes

Hello, 

 

I have a bit of an urgent ask. Is it possible to ingest attributes from the edge network into an individual profile class? So instead of the data getting saved into an experience event class we would need to map the individual profile class attributes in data collection. If this is possible, how can it be done?

 

Thanks,

Sachin

Hi @trojan_horse 

unfortunately, this is currently not possible through the Web SDK. This is a known limitation, I opened a product idea for this a couple of weeks back, also sketching roughly how I used Launch SSF to achieve this.

You can use HTTP API Connections for this.

Hi @abinashnayak 

Presumably, that is to signal AEP RTCDP which profile dataset it shall try to merge the events with, using the identity map information in your experience events..

(Or maybe an indicator of what's to come in the future, should it ever be possible to send Profile data through the datastream)

 

Documentation on that one.

@trojan_horse ,

Obviously I don't know your use case, but if it's just a field or two you are trying to store as a profile class attribute, one thing you can do is use Computed Attributes to store a field from an XDM Experience Event record as an XDM Individual Profile attribute.
