Adobe Target

DescriptionWhile our users try to adhere to standard  naming conventions for Target activities, the names are not fixed and may be adjusted throughout the lifecycle of the activity (Development, QA, Production, Completion). The only permanent identifier seems to be the Activity ID, however it is also useless because you cannot search by it.Why is this feature important to youBeing able to search by Activity ID would also give us a permanent way to refer to activities in other documentation where it would be impractical to keep updating the name.Please note that changing the name of the activity based on the status of the activity before and after launch was a recommended approach from our Adobe consultants. How would you like the feature to workEnter the activity ID in the Target UI activity search box and return the specified activity.Current BehaviourThe search tool only works with activity names at the moment.

I can't take credit for this idea. It was suggested ~2 years ago by @brendanjaffary It's desperately needed for clients who maintain large catalogs in Adobe Target. It was suggested to me to post this again so it's more recent.  Summary We need to have a feature that can mass delete entities based on a filter. I manage a catalog of over 400,000 entities so running a full catalog deletion is a huge impact to the business.  There is no real solution to manage your catalog as the comma delimited string for singular deletion requires the user to have a list of entityIDs to delete which they are not able to export from the catalog.In the documentation, it states that the more entities in your catalog, the longer your criteria’s will take to process.  I’ve also noticed that the larger my catalog is, the less accurate the recommendations are. Temporary SolutionThrough a recommendation of a forum user... once you filter your

Description - For the A/B activities with 50/50 manual split using A4T and having a redirect offer is having a delay in showing correct split of traffic in the reports when data generated correctly in the backend.Why is this feature important to you - We need to know the traffic is being split correctly and activity is working as expected.How would you like the feature to work - Should be able to see the correct traffic split latest by a day.Current Behavior - Takes 4-5 days or weeklong for reports to show correct information.

Description -  Add an option to the geo targeting drop down in audience builds that allows for radial targeting based off a pinpoint:  Why is this feature important to you - This is currently a large gap in options when trying to geo target certain areas (like in my case, ski resorts) and this would allow for increased understanding, usage and accuracy. How would you like the feature to work - I should be able to drop a pinpoint and select a radius in miles/km or draw a circle similar to: https://www.mapdevelopers.com/draw-circle-tool.php?circles=%5B%5B16093.4%2C34.2287407%2C-116.8604759%2C%22%23AAAAAA%22%2C%22%23000000%22%2C0.4%5D%5D Current Behaviour - In order to achieve this result, at the moment we have to create a lat/long box such as this which is not super accurate and can leave a lot of room for error:

Allow us to hide columns we don't need. (We don't use "Est. Lift in Revenue", and "Source" is always "Adobe Target" so we don't need that either.) Add new columns for Start and End dates. Allow us to add tags to activities to make it easier to organize them. For example: I would flag all my activities as desktop, mobile, or responsive. I would also flag them for the page template they're using and for the server they're on.

Description - Add some additional search operators (like Text, DateTime, Numeric, Boolean operators) to Target API in-order to apply search criteria to retrieve multiple records.Why is this feature important to you - This feature is crucial as it empowers users to fine-tune their searches effectively, enabling them to extract multiple records that precisely match their criteria. By expanding the available operators, we enhance the user experience, making it more versatile and efficient in retrieving the desired data, ultimately boosting productivity.How would you like the feature to work - I would like the feature to provide users with an extended set of operators, such as logical operators (AND, OR, NOT), comparison operators (>, <, =), wildcard operators (*, ?), and grouping operators (parentheses). Users should be able to combine these operators to create complex search queries, allowing for a more granular and tailored data retrieval process. Additionally, a user-fr

Description -Why is this feature important to you - Reducing the delay will allow promote newly launched productsHow would you like the feature to work - being able to promote / recommend Adobe Target Recommendations entities as soon as they launch on application for user.Current Behaviour - 15 Delay is present for product to be added to the catalog, and depending on criteria look-up the product can be recommended post next run of the algorithm which is anywhere between 12 - 48 hours. 

It would be nice to be able to delete profile attributes without having to wait for the profile to expire or to load the attribute with false data so that it no longer qualifies for an audience.

Description - A slider/setting in Recommendations criteria to tune how much the algorithm should explore items in the catalog.Why is this feature important to you - Our use case is to show some random/less relevant items in a set of User-based recommendations so the they're not overoptimised to what the user has previously browsed e.g. if user only or mostly views pages tagged "Educate me", they can be recommended a few pages tagged "Divert me" or "Inspire me" too (different values of the same attribute/field).It would also help adoption of Target within the business. Assuring Editorial and Product stakeholders that recommendations are not solely decided by an algorithm so less relevant but still important pages can be recommended would help alleviate concern that recommendations are overoptimised (we are a content/media website).How would you like the feature to work - In the Criteria screen, a slider similar to Attribute Weighting between 0% and 100% or 0 and 1 like AW

Description:The current activity log works for Inactive, Active and Archived activities but there is no way to view a log for deleted activities. There should be a log for deleted activities.   Why is this feature important to you: For auditing purposes. Current Behaviour:Currently the activity log is localized to each individual activity and there is no global activity log. This means if someone deletes and activity there is no record of who deleted it and when. How would you like the feature to work: It would be ideal to have a global activity log that captures when an activity is deleted and by who.Example Ticket: E-000800893   Thank you!

The current workflow for 'un-archiving' an activity is to make an edit then save the activity.While this is fine, it's not very intuitive.It would be nice if there was an 'un-archive' button in the status options for an activity.

We used the Experience Cloud Debugger to asses the status of our implementation. Per this KB: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/homepage.html the last two versions of at.js are officially supported. Additionally we have made a business decision to stay on v1.7.1 as v2.0 is still overcoming growing pains. We don't like the fact that the audit shows that we aren't on the latest code version. Technically we are on the latest code version we just don't want to be on the bleeding edge of SPA with at.js v2.0 can the Experience Cloud Debugger be improved so that latest version of both the SPA and non SPA version of at.js come up as "Passed"at.js v1.7.1 fails:

Description - Ability to create an Exclusion using two or more rules Why is this feature important to you - To exclude content that meets two criteria e.g. Video items (type) Longer than 10 minutes (duration). We still want to include Audio items Longer than 10 minutes in recommendations. How would you like the feature to work - Enable Save As Exclusions from Catalog Search or ability to add a second rule on the Exclusions screen Current Behaviour - You can only set one rule in the Exclusion rule builder and Catalog Search with two rules cannot be saved (Save As greyed out).

Target should have a built-in Audience that automatically excludes the IAB Bots. This Audience should also provide the ability to add specific user-agents.Similar functionality can be found within Adobe Analytics (see screen shot below). The IAB Bot Filtering can be checked to filter out known bots, and then the ability to add specific user-agents as well is provided.Having Bots in the Tests negatively impacts visitor metrics, such as RPV.

Description - Allow for more flexibility of saving combined audiences to the Audience Library. These should include: audiences that include a previously saved Audience Library audience combined with an AAM audience. Also, an AAM audience, or previously saved Audience Library audience, that is excluded from 'all visitors'.  Why is this feature important to you - We reuse several audiences repeatedly and it would save time and minimize error if these combined audiences could be saved to the Audience Library and just referenced as one audience rather than having to rebuild it each time. How would you like the feature to work - Should work the same as creating audiences and saving them to the Audience Library today. Current Behaviour - Currently, there is no option to save a combined audience to the Audience Library. The radio button is grayed out. Those audiences can only be saved to Activity-Only

Description - Add Sample Size Calculator within Adobe Target interface And/Or add its link while setting up an AB test Why is this feature important to you - Currently Adobe Target users have to either bookmark or search for the link to Sample Size calculator (https://experienceleague.adobe.com/tools/calculator/testcalculator.html?lang=en ), a very crucial tool to estimate the number of days a test should be run. Also, as its not part of the interface, users use different calculators provided by other vendors. As this is not part of the workflow-interface, its easy to miss this step - specially for practitioners who are new to Experience Optimisation or those who do not know that Adobe Target provides its own Sample size calculator.  How would you like the feature to work - Adobe Target Product team should add the Sample Size calculator link to Adobe Target top nav. Would be great to have it added to first step of an AB test workflow as well.  Current Behaviour - W

 Why is this feature important to you - we can link directly to archived Activity Details pages as a build reference, but if we want to duplicate the activity we need to then go back to the query dashboard and find the activity that way, which takes a significant amount of time. It would be much easier to duplicate from a linkable page. How would you like the feature to work - You can add an option under the vertical three dots:Share to feedActivity QA*Duplicate activity* Current Behaviour - no duplication function on Activity Details page. I can only duplicate from activity search pageStatus  

For many of my Adobe Target Experiences I need to target multiple URLs. Ideally I should be creating one experience and Page Delivery should allow me to add multiple "or" statements to delivery to those multiple URLs. Unfortunately Adobe Target only allows me to create one "or" statement per experience. When trying to add a second "or" statement, Target forces you to choose "and." This forces me to create multiples of the same experience to deliver to all my desired URLs. I'd like the option of infinite (or perhaps up to 100) "or" statements. Thank you!

Hi,This has been described here https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-target-questions/how-to-set-target-cookie-with-secure-flag/qaq-p/389452 and I haven't found any solution so far. I have also raised ticket with Support Team.This security issue is of high priority in the security audit report at one of the Target accounts I am supporting on and it is a blocker at present. Their security team wants to have all Adobe cookies with secure flag. It has been already set for other Adobe solutions but there is no result giving workaround for Target.When targetGlobalSettings approach didn't work, I tried adding a custom code (which is checking document.cookie and on finding Target cookies it is setting secure flag with other information but the expiry/max age value of the cookies is getting messed up) in Launch before loading Target and we can't proceed with this implementation until we can confirm that there won't be any impact of this approach to Target'

Hi Adobe Team,Please find my feature suggestion below: Description -Add a "Comment" prompt every time a Target Activity is saved to help be able to document changes in a Target ActivityWhy is this feature important to you - This feature would be extremely helpful for documentation purposes; Yes many users utilize secondary ticketing systems or spreadsheets to help manage information, but I find that Adobe Target (being the source of truth) should be able to document changes in the activity from a different angle. There are description fields in the Goals & Settings, but those aren't viewable unless you actually open the ticket, and often are forgotten to be updated.How would you like the feature to work -Every time you save an Activity, before being able to save a user would be prompted with a Comment text field to add a small comment about what was done, which would then be displayed on the Change Log panel in Adobe Target (see example screenshot I created below):This fi

Description - Feature that will allow you to see all products with more than x number of categories.Why is this feature important to you - It would simplify the catalog management process we currently use.How would you like the feature to work - There should be an option in the UI to configure a collection based on the number of values in the categoryId so I can ask Target the following: "Show me all products with 5 or more categories"Current Behaviour - Nothing like this currently exists. Mihnea Docea  "Committed to Excellence" |  Technical Support Engineer  |  Adobe  |  1 (800) 685-2950 #3 #2 #3 |  docea@adobe.com

Description Ability to Combine Audience Library audiences with activity-only audiences and attributes   Why is this feature important to you We have default audiences that we use to help gate campaigns to their proper areas. Because these are part of the audience library, we have an explosion of 1 off audiences   How would you like the feature to work When Combining Audiences for an activity, it would we great to be able to select from the audience library, activity-only library or create a new container with custom attribute and combine them all together.   Current Behaviour You can combine audiences from the library OR create an activity-only audience customized by Target attributes

The Adobe Target editor / publisher roles allow for separation of duties, which is a good. But let's be honest, it's wonderfully inflexible.Could we consider smashing those 2 roles together like a raging mosh pit to create something more impressive. For example:A single role where editors can publish other editors' activities, but can't publish activities they've edited themselves - keeping the 2-person workflow for compliance and security reasons in tact.Or at least allow an editor to pause an activity that's gone unhinged, so they can quickly stop the chaos and start fixing it, while still leaving the publisher the only one with the ability to "unpause" it.Or allow an editor to edit an active activity while it's still running, but the edits don't go into effect until the publisher OK's it. Similar to duplicating an activity, but without having the "restart" problem of starting a new activity and losing all the AI/ML data AND AND AND not having hours or days of downtime while the acti

I recently learned that the lifespan of my data in the Adobe Target visitor profile is a max of 90 days (default is 14 days).  This is too short!  I work in a business that drives toward one day a year - we have one transaction per client per year, but their likely-hood to convert similarly year over year is very high.  Can this lifespan be extended to a max of at least 12 months (24-36 would be amazing)?

Background: When an Exclusion is set up there are two options:1. "Add Exclusion" The end result is you get a container that you can drag into in order to correctly exclude an audience.2. "Exclude this Audience" This option adds All Visitors back into the audience and then only removes the audience that you had selected.The first option works as expected and should be left in place. However the second option is confusing and redundant (Everything it does can be accomplished out of the box by only have one “Add Exclusion” option with an audience of choice.)Feature: Please remove this second option from the interface as it is adding a lot of confusion when setting up exclusions.
