Hi @arpan-garg 
My name is Kasper, based out of Copenhagen, working at a consultancy who is an Adobe partner. 

The AEP certification is on my todo and has been for a while. Since I've just recently attended in the mentor program as Mentor for Adobe Target i thought this would be a good way to achieve the AEP certification, by being held 'accountable' and to do it as a group, rather than on my own.


Looking forward to be attending the program as aspirant : )🙂

Hi @arpan-garg 
My name is Vivek Tripathi, based out of Lucknow, working at a consultancy who is an Adobe partner. 

 

AEP Developer certification is my goal, however I believe Business Practitioner certification would be the first step. I have done some hands-on in AEP sandbox and learnt basics on my own. I have few questions related to how AEP woks, will post them in near future. 

 

Looking forward to contribute as an aspirant !

Have you seen the structure of the RT-CDP Business Practitioner exam? If not, you can find more details on this page: RT-CDP Business Practitioner Exam.

 

If you're not very familiar with Adobe Experience Platform (AEP) and want to understand how everything is connected end-to-end, I highly recommend this page: Comprehensive Technical Tutorial Archive. While it might be a bit outdated, it covers the core concepts of AEP very well.

I advise you to spend some time reviewing this document. If you have any questions or if anything is unclear, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm here to help with any other doubts you may have as well. If you still find AEP confusing and would like further assistance, please let me know, and we can arrange a call where I can explain it to you based on my experience.

 

Best regards, 

Arpan Garg

Hi Arpan ,

I have attempted these questions, please see my response below:

1. Where can you create a new merge policy in AEP?
We can create Merge Policy in Profiles. Navigation is as :
Main Menu -> Customer -> Profiles -> Merge Policies -> Create Merge Policy

2. Where can you search for profiles by merge policy in AEP?
We can search for Profiles by merge policy in Browse section under Profiles. Navigation is as :
Main Menu -> Customer -> Profiles -> Browse -> Select Merge Policy and Identity Namespace

3. Can you provide an example of an identity namespace that is available by default in AEP, other than ECID and Email?
Phone, TNTID, AAID are a few examples of identity namespace that is available by default in AEP, other than ECID and Email

4. How can you create a schema in AEP?
Navigation:
Main Menu -> Data Management -> Schemas

Prior to creating Schema we must follow these steps:
a. Decide if this schema will be a profile schema or not?
b. Define fields of schema.
c. Then define the fields which can act as identity, e.g. phone, email etc.
d. Then define which of the identity namespace will be Primary Identity
e. Select the class.
f. We can always reuse the available fields groups or create a new field group

5. What steps are required to enable a schema for profiles?
Go to schemas and enable the schema for profile by clicking Profile slide button.

6. What is the difference between a personal identity namespace and a non-personal identity namespace in AEP?
A namespace which can identify a person is personal identity namespace, e.g., phone, email etc.
A namespace which can identify a product or non-people identifier is non-personal identity namespace, e.g., sku, cookie id etc.

7. On what criteria can you create a merge policy in AEP?
We can always merge profile on the basis of :
•Profile Dataset -> Timestamp Ordered, Dataset Precedence.
•Experience Event Dataset

8. What are the different methods of ingesting data into AEP?
We can configure it in following ways:
a. Configure Sources using UI : Using out of the box connections available in Source, Use HTTP API function, Use FTP etc.
b. Configure using AEP API: Use Adobe I/O projects for ingesting using APIs

9. What are the different ways to create segments or audiences in AEP?
We can create 3 types of audience:
a. Batch
b. Streaming
c. Edge
Also, we can build using:
a. Build Rules
b. Compose Audience

10. What is the difference between edge, streaming, and batch audiences?
Batch Audiences are evaluated after a set interval of time.
Streaming Audiences are evaluated in real time.
Edge Audiences are resolved at edge network.

11.Where and how can you define dataset precedence in AEP?
Dataset Precedence is defined when we create a Merge Policy. We can define the order of dataset for precedence when merging profile datasets.

12.What information do you need to search for a profile in AEP?
We need Merge Policy, Identity Namespace and its corresponding value to search for a profile in AEP.

Hi @kandersen-1 

Sorry for the delayed response.

The RT-CDP Business Practitioner exam covers questions from various modules, which you can find detailed here: RT-CDP Business Practitioner Exam Guide.

I had previously mentioned this in our earlier discussion, but to clarify:

Section 1: Segments and Activation (32%)

  • Create segments and activate them to destinations
  • Configure new destinations
  • Apply concepts needed to target identities in destinations
  • Identify attribute mappings and schedule segments for destination

Section 2: Privacy and Data Governance (20%)

  • Understand DULE policies and their impact on data availability at destinations
  • Ensure adherence to privacy and data compliance measures

Section 3: Business Analysis (30%)

  • Identify use cases aligned with business KPIs
  • Perform data analysis on customer segments within the platform
  • Demonstrate an understanding of data flow concepts

Section 4: Schemas and Profiles (18%)

  • Demonstrate an understanding of Adobe Experience Platform concepts
  • Utilize profile features

The majority of the questions I've been asking revolve around these modules to help you focus your preparation effectively. Many of the questions related to destinations are at the recall level, so please ensure you are familiar with the identities required for activation, particularly for social channels like LinkedIn and Facebook.

Thank you, and I hope this helps with your preparation.

Arpan
