Adobe Target

Hi Guys,Any tricks to generate a random (or pseudo random) number in Velocity? (As MathTool is not available) Thanks,Jerome   

Hi, QA preview urls works fine for client side mboxes. But, not working for Server side mboxes. Is there any additional details that we need to pass as part of REST API call to utilize QA Preview urls. 

I found this documentation (https://docs.adobe.com/content/help/en/target/using/experiences/offers/passing-profile-attributes-to-the-html-offer.html) which allows us to use profile data in our offers. This works however, I cannot figure out how to pull in updated data values without reloading the page. Is there a way to update the content without reloading the page? Perhaps on some sort of event listener (ex: click event)?   Thanks!

Hey all, We are just about to start trying Auto Personalization, Auto Allocate and Auto Targeting tests but I understand you can only use Adobe Target to report with these. I remember in Adobe Target Classic, when we reported into target, we were able to select metrics from Adobe Analytics to use in that specific target test. Is this still possible as I don't seem to be able to find a way to do this? Thanks in advance

Hey Guys, I'm new to Adobe Target and I was asked to migrate a current solution that is using the old Adobe 4.x version with PhoneGap. In their code which by the way is not totally available for me they use the method ADB.targetLoadRequest(success, fail, name, defaultContent, parameters);to get the requests.  So I thought that for this I needed to implement  https://aep-sdks.gitbook.io/docs/using-mobile-extensions/adobe-target/target-api-reference#retrieve-location-content-requestspublic static void retrieveLocationContent(final List<TargetRequest> targetRequestList,final TargetParameters parameters) It seems that the interface changed a bit so I would assume that the TargetRequests is build using the 'name', 'defaultContent' and 'parameters' from the previous call but if that is the case I'm a little bit confused of how to build the TargetParameters class which we did not used to have. is it okay to leave it empty?I have been trying this combinations but

Hi Everyone,I'm new to target and as of now working on recommendation.Is it mandatory to create feeds in recommendation?

Hi, When i view Target reports in Adobe Analytics, i see that all the activities are reported as 12 PM even though user might be active during the different time of the day. What do i need to do in order to get Hour of the day working for Target Activities? Thanks and Regards,Nitin

Can anyone provide me JS code that returns list of activities running on a page?  Thanks,Gauresh kodag

Hi Guys, I'm using AEM 6.2 which is integrated with Target thru cloud services for a/b testing and rules based personalization. The logic works properly for both activity types, but there is a bug in the AEM author environment. After targeting any components they look good unless I leave page. If I leave page or my session expire and I re-visit targeted page, components are invisible. I can see there are some border lines for each component, but the content itself is invisible. I can normally operate on any component and targeting works properly on publish instance, but it's difficult to work with some components when I can't see them. I can't see any related errors in the console or AEM error.log Help? 🤔 🤔

I am looking to personalize a page for users that enter the site  with a specific parameter www.example.com/testpage.html?utm_term=example7 the logic i used was Site Pages: Landing Page Query containsutm_term=example7 the experience fires upon initial entry but does not persist when user within the same session returns to the page without the parameter. How can I make sure the experience persists for the lifetime of the campaign, that way any user who went to the page with the parameter will forever see the personalized experience

Hi everyone, i'm here with a lot of doubts of target but i'd like start greeting all of you guys for this community.Well, about the thread, i'm working in a custom implementation with mobile app (both systems Android and IOS), we've use an scenario with Target and Analytics through Adobe Launch, the integration on first was a POC of  their app mentioned on their documentation called "BusBooking app", so all integration looks fine at the point of feature VEC, but at the moment of generate and activate an simple A/B testing, we cant see any change on the app, the segment is allocated as 50% 50%, so i cant understand what could it be wrong.Someone can help me? if its necesary i'll got you all the context scenario.Thanks for your time guys!

I am using JSON Offer to manupulate the webpage. I use getOffers and applyOffers functions to show what I retrieved from Target to users. I also listen to a specific action that will be reported to the Target, like clicking a button. If this button is clicked I call trackEvent function to report user action. But somehow there is no information about my activity in the Report panel of Target.I tried to set my primary goal to Conversion -> Viewed an mbox/Clicked on mbox or Engagement -> Page Views but nothing has changed.I don't create an empty div that represent the mbox. I call getOffers to get the json data from Target and after I retrieve the data I call applyOffers to manipulate the webpage.I see that I can pass extra object called metrics that can report click actions when calling applyOffers. adobe.target.applyOffers() - at.js 2.x I haven't tried it but what if I want to set my success metric to just viewing of mbox.I change one of the properties of mbox.options before I cal

I'm trying to pull my list of offers via the API. I am only seeing the offers in my Default Workspace, and the JSON output for each other does not have the "workspace" property. Is this feature of the API only available in Target Premium? Expected output:{ "total": 2, "offset": 0, "limit": 2147483647, "offers": [ { "id": 123456, "name": "My Default Workspace Offer", "type": "content", "modifiedAt": "2019-12-25T05:30:00Z", "workspace": 1234567 }, { "id": 123457, "name": "My Other Offer", "type": "content", "modifiedAt": "2020-01-01T05:30:00Z", "workspace": 1234568 } ] } Actual output:{ "total": 1, "offset": 0, "limit": 2147483647, "offers": [ { "id": 123456, "name": "My Default Workspace Offer", "type": "content", "modifiedAt": "2019-12-25T05:30:00Z" } ] }  

My team uses the Target API for the creation of offers, audiences, and activities, transitioning away from the UI.  When building audiences in the UI it is possible to set exclusions for groups of audiences. Is there a similar functionality to do this when creating audiences with the API? Or is our only option to copy the individual audiences and set up the exclusion at that level with targetRule? Something like the example below where audience4 or audience5 would be excluded from audience3.ex."audienceRule": "and": audience1,audience2,audience3"excluding": "or": audience4,audience5

Hi community, I see a lot about how the VEC can be used to make simple changes to SPAs. This is demonstrated here. But how does this work when the data being accessed is loaded asynchronously? What if a state-change occurs on a view (log-in/out, sort order, lazy-loading)? How, or better yet, can this handled using the VEC? I imagine there's some coding going on. But are devs using pure DOM manipulation, or some other method, for example, Angular Elements as demonstrated here: https://shinesolutions.com/2019/08/07/angular-7-and-a-b-testing/? Note, there's no mention of using the VEC. I'm curious to hear how others are approaching this (VEC or Form-based), as our team is preparing to upgrade to at.js 2.x and want to explore the pros/cons. Thanks!  

Quick question, I'm setting up an email test (not in Campaign) using an Adbox to change an image and a Redirector to change landing page. If I use Analytics (A4T) as my reporting source will this work? Thanks Dan

Hi All, Anyone facing issue with Target UI? Is there any release scheduled for today? For a New/Live activity, if I try to create/edit an activity, VEC is not loading and I cannot see the existing code on the right for old activity. 

I created an activity using form based experience composer and it is working in all browsers ( Safari , Chrome , Mozilla , Edge ) , but not in IE . We are testing in IE11 , surprisingly when I open developer console and refresh the page it is working . Could some one please help me to resolve this?

Hi All,I have a requirement to show the content, based on user's type/category. So, I'm planning to go with cookie approach and achieve this. But, can someone help me on the approach which I'm gong to follow and correct me if something will not works here!1) My application has login option. so, when user logged in I will set a cookie whether the user category is A, B or C. (CookieName=UserCategory & CookieValue=categoryA/B/C).2) Once the cookie has been set and I will trigger the mbox/At.js and In Target I will check the cookie (UserCategory) whether if it is A, B or C? Based on that I'm planning to show the content. Now, I had a doubts on how to set the cookie first (before calling mbox/at.js) and how to pass the cookie value to Target. And, where should I write the JS/JAVA code to fetch the cookies?Whether this cookie approach will works or not?Or, is there any other approach I can use it from OOTB?I using AEM 6.4 and integrate Target within that.Can you please suggest/help  me h

I want to use custom script for changing the view of my website. Since I would like to manipulate different parts of the webpage I don't want to use applyOffers. I wonder if there is any side effects to use custom javascript instead of using applyOffers? For example, other functions like trackEvent can still be useful?Is applyOffer function just used for manipulating the webpage?Thank you!I am using at.js v2.2.0

Hi,I have created an AB test using the experience template (pop up upon exit intent).  The "last chance offer" popup fires properly within the edit activity phase while setting up the test.My site has geo-location functionality so upon entering, there is a popup in the top left that asks "______ wants to know your location.  Allow or Block"It seems that when this location popup shows, the AB test (exit intent) does not always fire. In addition, if I already have hit allow or block, then return to my site at a later time....the test actually works.  Ideally we need this to work ALWAYS, not when someone returns.  Is this a known issue?  Could there be another problem?  Has anyone had this occur and maybe have a workaround?Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys,I am using an Adobe Recommendation based on the People Who Viewed This, Viewed That Algorithm. I am actually surprised to see pages I have already visited recommended. I can see my previous pages correctly recorded in my $profile (user.viewedEntities) Is this expected? My workaround would be to remove these pages from the design.Rgds,Jerome

Hi Guys,I am using a Criteria based on:Recommendation Key: PopularityRecommendation Logic: Most ViewedI am also using additional inclusion rules for language and content type-> Less than 10 items from the catalog actually qualify.In the Design, I am facing some weird behaviors:     $entities.size()     -> gives me 1           if I just add     $entitiy1.id     $entitiy2.id     $entitiy3.id     $entities.size()     -> it now gives me 3     If I tried to call an entity that doesn't exist the Recommendation fails completely     $entitiy4.id     ...     $entitiy11.id         -> Recommendation failsIt's the same If I use a loop:     #foreach ($block in $entities)          $block.id     #end     -> Recommendation failsMy questions: Is this by Design for this specific Recommendation Key?I don't have the same issue with other recommendations - I usually get an array of 100 with some of them emptyDoes the Design impact the Criteria RecommendationsIf I clearly call 10 entities in

On Nov 14th, we migrated from mbox.js to at.js.Before migration , the profile script was evaluating to true.  Now it is evaluating to false even if I fulfill the condition.  I checked this through trace. I did not make any change to profile script.Am I missing some configuration which might  required for at.js ?  I have activated this profile script under response token also.
