Adobe Target

In my experience, the hardest part of experimentation often isn’t the tool itself – Adobe Target is powerful and flexible – but the context it lives in. For some organizations, the blocker is the data foundation: experiments become guesswork if the right data streams aren’t stitched together, or if audiences aren’t well-defined. For others, it’s the organization: running tests is easy, but aligning teams, stakeholders, and processes around experimentation can be painfully slow. I’ve seen companies where the bottleneck wasn’t in setting up a Target activity, but in getting approval to launch it.   👉 I’m curious: what’s the toughest challenge you’re facing right now when it comes to running experiments in Adobe Target?   Is it data (getting the right foundation in place)? Is it organizational (building trust and speed in decision-making)? Or is it something entirely different?   Would love to hear how you’re tackling it — and maybe we can all steal a few id

How to Deliver Personalized Experiences Without Compromising Site Security Delivering personalized digital experiences while keeping your site secure? It’s not a pipedream anymore. This guide shows how to make Adobe Target and Content Security Policy (CSP) work together—so marketers can personalize freely, and developers can sleep soundly. What Is CSP? Think of Content Security Policy (CSP) as your site’s gatekeeper. It defines a set of rules that tells browsers which sources of content such as scripts, styles, images are safe to load and blocks anything suspicious. CSP is your knight in shining armor against cross-site scripting attacks. For Marketers: Why You Should Care A strict CSP, if not configured for Adobe Target, can disrupt your personalization efforts. Problems may include: Failed rendering of personalized experiences Broken reporting and Analytics Unexpected errors in the Visual Experience Composer (VEC) The fix? Collaborate with your development team to configure CS

Hello,We’ve encountered an issue with our AEM-Target integration: although targeted content is being replaced, it appears blank on the UI because the CSS class (mboxDefault) is not removed after content injection. We have tried different timeout settings, but haven’t had any success.Also the content personalization is specific to the component not for the complete page.We’re using the at.js 2.11.8 version. Can someone help identify what might be causing the issue and suggest possible solutions? I don’t see any errors in the console or failures in the network calls. I’m not sure if we need to introduce a listener to change the visibility. I appreciate any help you can provide. @hrishikeshkagne 

Hi,I’ve run into an issue with the Visual Experience Composer (VEC). Previously, I was able to use the “Add Before” and “Add After” features to insert multiple HTML elements at once (for example, multiple HTML elements added after an element).Recently, whenever I try this, Target throws an error saying that more than one element is being added. The only way to proceed is to split the HTML into separate insertions (one element at a time), which is tedious and error-prone.I’ve checked the latest Adobe Target release notes, but I couldn’t find any mention of this being an intentional deprecation or limitation.So my questions are:Has Adobe officially deprecated inserting multiple elements at once via “Add Before” / “Add After”?If yes, could you point me to the official documentation or release notes that confirm this change?If not, is this a bug in the new VEC, and should we open a support ticket?This change is impacting our workflow, so any clarification would be very helpful.Thanks in ad

I am building an A/B Test activity in Adobe Target. In the variant, I am inserting a recommendation on to the page. In my goals, I want to set it up to track clicks on the recommendation. However, I don't have an option to do that. If I do Conversions > Click an Element, the recommendation just shows a blank box that says recommendaiton offer. So I can't select an item to track as a click. Is there something I am missing or a work around?

Hello All, Trying to setting up my first recommendation activity in AT. Completed uploading few products to product catalog via Recommendations API. How can we set up a basic or simple recommendation activity after this catalog set up? Sample use case like if a user searches a particular product , then displaying that product based on the search term. Would be really helpful to get the inputs. Thank you.

Hi, I'm trying to do experience targeting personalisation on webpage which is EDS document based. I have configured this using Web SDK. The number of steps that I have followed is:1. Defined datastream. Activated AEP & AT services2. Configured web SDK tag property to collect data in AEP.3. created audience and activated to Target.4. Created experience targeting activity and changed the title of hero banner. However, I cannot see Target personalised content on webpage. I could see the content data in network 'interact' response, but not on webpage. What am I missing? Thanks,Jyoti

Hello Community,I have set up the integration between AEM and Target. Currently, I am trying to pull audiences from a specific Target workspace, but the integration only retrieves audiences from the default workspace. The Developer Console (Project) is configured, and the API integration is associated with a different project (not the default), yet it still only accesses the default workspace. Question 1:Is there a way to pull audiences from a different workspace instead of the default one? If so, what configuration changes are needed to enable this?Question 2:Also, in the Developer Console, for the API integration, I am unable to specify or select the default workspace; I can only select a project-specific workspace. What steps are required to add or enable the default workspace?Question 3:I am also encountering an error when saving or syncing activities to Target. Could this be related to a permissions issue? Please advise.04.09.2025 20:09:20.466 *DEBUG* [10.96.204.188 [17570344

Hello, I am encountering the same issue that you reported here. Currently, I am able to sync activities from AEM author to the Target workspace (*_author). However, when it comes to publishing, the activities are not being synced with Target.Could you please let me know what was done to fix your issue? Do we need to add any users to a Target-specific group or grant any permissions related to replication?

What happens in Adobe Target if I end an A/B/C test and later restart it? Will visitor allocations remain the same, or is it possible that someone who originally saw Banner A in the first run could be reassigned to Banner B or C once the test is restarted?

Hi, we are trying to implement Adobe Target on Adobe AEM Cloud without Tag Manager. Currently we have downloaded the at.js file from Target and do the configuration but :1) We need confirmation if the configuration is correct or not2) If the configuration is correct, we need support for the next steps involved as we can't find the list of activities after this first step Please let us know if you can help us.

I am showing the pop-up on Experience Targeting activity. I want to show this popup one time in a session, so I have used the below profile script as user_freq,if(user.sessionId!=user.getLocal('lastSessionId')){user.setLocal('lastSessionId', user.sessionId);   return (profile.get('visitCount') || 0) + 1; // changend line}Then use this scripts in audience attributes, the condition is user_freq < 2. But its not working properly, the popup showing again and again in a same session.

Hi all, We have noticed that our Adobe Target activities only appear when using incognito mode. When accessing the same page in normal browsing mode, the activities do not show up at all. Could anyone help us understand why this might be happening? Thank you!

We are trying to sync User Profile information from a Data Cloud to Adobe Target.Currently, we are able to call the Bulk Profile API using a token generated in the Adobe Target UI. However, this token expires every 90 days.Our requirement is to automate this by generating an authorization token dynamically using Client ID and Client Secret. We created a project in the Adobe Developer Console and tried this approach, but we are getting the following error:<com.adobe.tnt.profileservice.crud.ResponseErrorBody> <status>403</status> <message>Authentication failed, make sure a valid token is provided</message> </com.adobe.tnt.profileservice.crud.ResponseErrorBody>Has anyone successfully implemented this?Is there a specific authentication flow required for Adobe Target Bulk Profile API (e.g., IMS token, JWT, OAuth)?Could the issue be related to missing API scopes, product profile permissions, or incorrect client credentials in Developer Console?Any
