Adobe Journey Optimizer

Hey AJO practitioners, One thing that keeps coming up when I talk to teams across the industry: staying on top of Adobe release notes is genuinely hard. Not because the documentation isn't there - it is - but because carving out time to check it regularly just doesn't happen when day-to-day work takes over. I built DXP Intel to solve exactly that. It monitors release notes across Adobe Experience Cloud solutions weekly, summarises what's new, and surfaces it in one place. You subscribe to the products you care about - Target, AEP, CJA, AJO, whatever's relevant to you - and only get an email when there's actually something new. No noise, no digest of nothing. Check it out → dxpintel.com Happy to hear any feedback - this is early days and I'm actively improving it.

Hello, we’re in the process of exploring the web channel and looking into the configuration. I read the documentation and if I’m understanding the pages matching rule section correctly, you can use it to include multiple webpages and the web experiences you create for that channel will be applied to all those pages. My question is, what if the pages that qualify for the rules have very different layouts?Examples:You’re creating a web experience in a journey and the default page you are shown while in visual designer has a banner at the top, and you change that banner. What happens to pages that don’t have a banner at the top? The default page you’re editing has a 2 column layout with a right-rail component. You change that component. What happens to pages that don’t have that component and is only 1 column?Would the pages with different components or layouts from the default just break?

Hi AJO Community,I'm trying to confirm the exact behaviour of channel-level frequency capping within a multi-step journey, specifically when the Global Rule Set is involved. I'd appreciate any official confirmation or real-world validation of what I've outlined below.Our Setup:We have a Global Rule Set (channel domain) with two active email rules:Daily Email Limit: 1 email per dayWeekly Email Limit: 3 emails per weekOur journey is a Read Segment (batch) with the following structure:Email 1 → 10-Day Wait → Email 2My Understanding of the Behaviour:When a profile enters the journey and hits the daily or weekly cap at Email 1, the message is skipped but the profile continues moving through the journey canvas — it is not ejected. The exclusion is recorded at the message delivery level with reason code ExcludedForControlRules (050002).After the 10-day wait, both the daily and weekly caps will have fully reset (daily resets at midnight UTC, weekly resets Saturday at 23:59:59 UTC). So assuming

We have created a audience under AJO from the AI Assistant UI. Could observe that the attributes and event fields used to create the audience by agent is not visible at the build panel. Qualified profiles count is also displayed below audience properties.Could someone help to understand what we are missing here! 

Excited to co-host with  ​@DavidBarnes11 an open AEP / AJO community discussion on March 24 at 11 AM EST.This will be a fully audience-driven session - the challenges, blockers, and ideas we explore will come directly from the people who show up and share their experiences.If you work with Adobe Experience Platform or Adobe Journey Optimizer, bring your toughest questions:• What’s blocking you?• What limits are you hitting?• What do you wish the platform could do better?The goal is simple: learn from each other and tap into the collective knowledge of the community.🔗 Learn more & RSVP:https://lnkd.in/eYfJ8XWC💬 If you want to influence the discussion, message ​@Asheesh_Pandey or ​@DavidBarnes11 with the AEP / AJO challenge that’s keeping you up at night. ​​​​​@NimashaJain ​@Sukrity_Wadhwa @Stephanie Dam

Hi, I have a question regarding the 91-day criteria for journeys. We have batch evaluated journeys with read audience that are intended to be always on (evergreen) in the sense that we hope that profiles keep entering as long as the journey is live.My question is once the journey is published what would happen after 91 days. We have not set any end date for the journey. Will it automatically move to finished state or will it continue to be live after 91 days. Also, in some documentation it says that after 91 days reporting data is not available or it gets refreshed. Is that case?Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I’m configuring a Custom SMS provider in AJO.The provider requires:A login request using Authorization: Basic base64(user:password) to retrieve a short-lived token A second request to send the SMS using Authorization: Bearer {token}Since the token expires frequently, is it possible in AJO Custom SMS configuration to:Dynamically generate the Basic header? Handle the login call and reuse the returned token?Or is middleware required to manage token refresh externally? If Custom SMS config can’t manage this, can Custom Actions do that? Thanks!

Please Ignore

 I’m using the Profile-based sample queries on the documentation to retrieve all successfully executed message actions for a specific profile but looks like it only return journey message. How can I get all emails sent to a profile from AJO Campaigns? Documentation link:https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/journey-optimizer/using/reporting/reports/query-examples

is the inAudience from a Condition working fine with Custom Upload Audiences? or InAudience only works with BATCH Audiences? Thanks.

I have a use case where we need the offer, for example, to start on the 1st of the month and end on the 10th.Is there a way to do this automatically without having to keep changing the validity every time?

Hi, can the AJO Email tracking dataset be used as unitary event? I’d like to have a kind of bi-directional journey based on Whatsapp responses. Thanks.

Could somebody explain if Decisioning would replace Decision Management? For new licences starting from now on there would be only Decisioning? In decisioning email is still not available ...
