Conditionally include partial data from a source/dataflow into Profile

When we profile enable a Schema and Dataset from Marketo, all the data ingested into it is included in profile. But we have data quality issues in Marketo due to which do not want to include all the data into Profile, only certain data matching few qualified campaigns should be included into profile. Marketo doesn't support row level filtering for Individual Records data. Is there any easier way to achieve this?

Hi,

When a Marketo schema and dataset are Profile-enabled, all ingested records automatically flow into the Real-Time Customer Profile — there’s no way to apply row-level filters within the Marketo connector.

To include only qualified records (e.g, specific campaigns), the easiest approach is to:

  1. Ingest all Marketo data into a non-Profile dataset (your raw landing zone).
  2. Create a second, Profile-enabled dataset with the same schema.
  3. Use Query Service (or Data Distiller) to filter and copy only the qualified rows into the Profile-enabled dataset.
  4. Schedule this query so your Profile dataset stays up to date

@karuppiah_sakthivel We are using the Query approach for the time being, we want to move away for this, as Queries make Marketo data work for only Batch Segmentation (as it is considered as Batch dataset). The original Marketo Connector based data can be used for Streaming Segments and real-time use cases. These use cases are impacted using Query ingestion and query execution on large volume of data can not adversely impact Query performance/failures.

Good point — using Query Service does make the dataset batch-only, so we lose streaming segmentation and real-time updates from the Marketo connector. It’s a solid workaround for data quality control, but ideally Adobe should let us apply filters directly on the Marketo source to keep streaming use cases intact.
