Adobe Target

Description - It would be very helpful to create experiences natively in Visual Experience Composer for Target admins, save it back to AEM when necessary in a similar fashion to how AEM Asset Link works within the native Creative Cloud user interface. Why is this feature important to you - It allows Target users to embrace more features and functionalities of AEM without needing to leave the Target Visual Experience Composer.How would you like the feature to work - Natively within Visual Experience Composer; users should be able to access available Assets, make renditions of Assets within Visual Experience Composer, including Experience Fragments, and save any changes made within the session back down to AEM. Current Behaviour -

Description -We have a SPA (single page application/asynchronous) webshop, where Launch is loaded only once on the first page. With the debugger I can see, that Target parameters set with "add params to page load request" are still there when going to next page (which is a asynchronous load). e.g. parameters for a product (detail page) are send again on next page even when it is another page type. This could break things.Why is this feature important to you -As I said in description, Target parameters set on one page are send on the next page even if this does not make sense. The option "don't send if empty value" does not work.How would you like the feature to work -The Target extension v1 and v2 should get a "clear variables" Option/Rule just as the Analytics extension have. Or the option "don't send if empty value" has to check if the Launch parameter has changed.Current Behavior -Tremendous parameters are send with Target v2 on our SPA. Adobe support told me to put it here in

Description - to restrict access to the admin menu in Target User InterfaceWhy is this feature important to you - so target account settings cannot be changed at Target level unless you have admin access. Also a change log for admin settings change would help identify changes at admin level.How would you like the feature to work - Like AA; the ability to only show admin menu in Target UI to key users of organisation onlyCurrent Behaviour - Admin access is shown to all users in Target UI; this menu needs to be hidden unless you are admin access as part of your user profile for Target. @rbasra 

Description - Having identified that the Feed Setup screen is inaccurate in statting the time to run an FTP is GMT we have realised that our file has only been loading half records.Why is this feature important to you - This is the second time we have had issues with the feed failing first time as it had stopped running and this time since the clocks change in October we have not been loading our full recommendation feed.How would you like the feature to work - Either via a bespoke interface or via back end processing send an email to the core account team when a) the daily load does not run or b) then the number of items in the feed falls or rises above 10% of the previous days numberCurrent Behaviour - No current alerts for issues with feeds.

Description - When hiding or otherwise removing elements as part of an MVT activity, the location becomes invisible in the Compose view and cannot be hovered over or clicked on, which makes it uneditable.Why is this feature important to you - Showing and hiding content is important as part of an MVT experience if you are trying to identify the parts of the page that add or remove value.How would you like the feature to work - The location could have a minimum height set. Or there could be a sidebar similar to the Preview view that lists the Locations on the left for renaming or editing purposes (this would be consistent with other types of activity experiences)Current Behavior - Right now if you are hiding an element (e.g. display:none) as part of an MVT activity, when you go into the Compose view there is no way to see, find or edit the location content.

Description - Add a search facility in Target UI; so a search by URL makes it much easier and more productive to locate activities based on the URL especially using multiple workspaces. A facility asked by clients in support tickets.Why is this feature important to you - As a support engineer it is easier to locate activities sharing the same URL by this search facility. Good for debugging also. A search facility will really help us and customers a lot.How would you like the feature to work - Like a simple search bar e.g. search by URL, activity name, start date etc etc etcCurrent Behaviour - This does not exist at moment; which makes it very cumbersome to locate activities of interest @jason_hickey 

I was wondering if Adobe had any future development plans to allow a client to request a list of IDs that are currently setup in a given recommendations environment.  Right now, I feel like only 2 of the 3 pieces exist to effectively manage entities.  I can use the GET entities to retrieve an entity, and I can use DELETE to delete an entity.  But, there doesn't seem to be a mechanism to simply get a list of ids that are present in the environment.  If this capability existed, one could theoretically download the list of ids and easily do the equivalent of a full join operation (against internal systems) and easily determine if any entities were missing (and then post with a SAVE request) and entities that were obsolete (and then remove with a DELETE request).  

As a media/publishing company, we want to exclude all the previously viewed items from the recommendations. This is at the moment not possible out of the box. We have seen that for the Ecommerce industry there is a "Recommend Previously Purchased Items" toggle. It would be good that for Media/Publishing companies it exists out of the box for "Viewed" items.

I'd like to propose that Adobe Target have similar reporting capabilities as Adobe Analytics has when it comes to administrative reports. The reason for this is really so we can audit and maintain records of the Target implementation and usage.License usage logsEnriching the Target admin API requestsAdding the Target activity used when querying a Target audienceAdding the location (url) of the Target activity when querying the Target activity

Description -  When using multiple audiences in an AB Test, QA URLs do not work unless you also qualify for the audience. This makes validation prior to launch in some cases impossible. Audience qualification should not be required for simply validating the experience response from Target.Why is this feature important to you - It is not always possible to organically qualify for an audienceHow would you like the feature to work - This should work like any other QA URL...regardless of audience qualification, a QA url should force you into the expected experience and return the appropriate response.Current Behaviour - AB Tests with multiple audiences require you to also qualify for the audience in order to use QA URLs

Most of our primary metrics are engagement (non-discrete).  Unfortunately they are not available to be used as a primary metric in Target.  Therefore, you can not use auto allocate (or auto-target) based on an optimizing things like pages views or visits.

Product enhancement request for Adobe Target Recommendations: When modifying a Criteria sequence, it’s not possible to move the criteria’s around without deleting them and then re-adding them. Would it be possible to implement a drag and drop functionality so it is possible to move criteria #2 to position #1 without having to rebuild the whole sequence? Thank you!  

Currently we can able to create folders for offers. It will be good if we get an option to create folders for audiences as well. So that we can segregate audiences easily based on the source of the audiences or based on the client's sites(If client using target for more than one site) 

It's impossible for us to keep on top of CMS changes, and when using the VEC this can have wildly unexpected results when a change occurs to the page and the content authors can't test the page against all experiences being applied to the page.In the activity list/browser, we should have an easy way of identifying all active activities where the VEC is in use and there has been a change to the page/selectors and re-validation or adjustment is required. Alerts would also be highly useful.

We are currently unable to accurately personalise experiences on a city level in the UK. Instead, we can only personalise on a county level, however this is not granular enough for the type of experiences we want to create. It would be great if you could develop the ability to personalise on a city-level in the UK in the near future.

We want to create a generic (and easy to use) setup to do AB testing on the homepage of our news websites, but are blocked by the limitation of Adobe Target that CSS selectors can only map to single locations on a page. This makes sense voor most websites, but is a frustrating limitation for us. In short, this is our context:Our homepages consist of tiles, which are identical in terms of htmlA tile of a certain article can potentially appear multiple times on the homepage, on different locationsIf we want to do an AB test on the tile of an article, we of course want to be consistent and make the change on every tile for that articleAdditionally, when we launch a test for a certain article tile on the homepage:The position of the article can change soon, because newer news is always put on top  so our selectors need to be flexibleIt is possible that the tile will appear in an extra module (eg most popular articles) on the homepage  if that happens, we want that new tile to also b

Currently it is not possible to add a date or timeframe dimension to a report in Adobe Target when one doesn't have access to Analytics for Target. See the following forum thread for reference:  https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-target-questions/activity-reporting-get-conversion-and-impression-data-by-date/qaq-p/378938/comment-id/4400#M4399 I'd like to request that it be possible to segment activity reporting by hour, day, week, month, quarter, year, and date. I'm probably missing a level of granularity there.  

Is there a way Adobe can add a binary method for the built-in A4T template in Adobe Analytics? I know the current default method is for continuous variables, but I believe many companies also use binary KPIs, like conversion rate, as the main KPIs for the test.  

Hi Team, if we are running multiple activities on the same page, at the same location with different priority then we are seeing the impression count increase for both the activities even though the visitor sees only high priority activity.Example : consider home page hero banner, if we are running multiple activities with different priorities served on the hero banner. even though visitor would see high priority banner the impression count increases for both the activities, can we fix it? i.e. reporting number should increase only the activities that visitor is seeing. 

Being able to search only on Activity name or URL is limiting. It would be helpful to have other search field dropdowns. Searching on things like audiences would be very helpful in finding everyplace where a particular audience is being used.

When writing more complicated rules-based audiences it would be helpful to have a NOT or ANDNOT operator to be used. Additionally, providing an editable code view (similar to how Audience Manager allows) could allow alternate ways to write logic beyond the UI. 

The prefetchContent API from AEP SDK currently gets offers from Target. However, the response from the callback function seems to only contain just the offer content from the matched Target activity. We should be able to get activity id/name, experience name, etc. somehow, just like how Response Tokens work with at.js for Web. This API doesn't seem to currently exist in AEP SDK.

Some suggestions for improving the referenced workspace: ability to use custom metrics (doesn't appear to be the case as of now)ability to select more than 3 (appears to be the current limit), whether or not the confidence calculations adjust for multiple comparisons for tests with multiple challengers

Product team, It would be a big time saver if we had the ability to designate one report suite that would always show up by default in the drop down for A4T reporting in Target.Screen-shot showing the drop down we wish to be able to affect with a settings change:Mihnea Docea | Technical Support Consultant | Customer Experience | Adobe | 1 (800) 497-0335

Currently there are no additional steps when editing activity that is live than one that is inactive. In this way any edits to a live test are set to live by saving the changes. At the same time there is no indication that this is a live test while on the edit screen. Both combine to a high risk of introducing updates directly to a live test. I would recommend two updates. First, all edits get reviewed before set to active. In the case of experiences that are already live the best action would be to have any update to an activity move the experience back to inactive along with a prompt explaining the move. This allows an opportunity for review updates before setting those live. Second, include the status of an experience in all edit screens. This will allow for a visual indication on if this test is currently either active or inactive.
