Primary and/or reconcilation key configuration for saveProfile action (Adobe Campaign integration)

Hi All,

I'm currently trying to sync AEM with Adobe Campaign by using the "Adobe Campaign: Save Profile" action type. I'm working with AEM 6.0 SP3 and Adobe Campaign 6.1. For the moment new profile data is being submitted through the form as I can see the new records turning up in Adobe Campaign. The problem is now that I want to use the email field on the AEM form as a primary field or reconciliation key, resulting in only 1 record per unique email address in Campaign. This is currently not working as multiple records with the same email address are turning up in Campaign. Does anybody have an idea of how the Primary key and/or reconciliation key settings should be configured on both the AEM side and Campaign sides to have this functionality working? I tried both adding the primary key component as the hidden reconciliation component to my AEM form, but no luck. The AEM documentation does not seem to cover this specific topic very well.

Kind regards,

Simon

Ok,

I seem to have found how the Encrypted Primary Key is working on the following page: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-1/author/personalization/adobe-campaign/adobe-campaign-forms.html#Testing a Form. However, I want to create/update profiles based on a reconciliation key only (for example the email address). Is this possible in one way or another?

Kind regards,

Simon

Hi Simon

Which feature pack are you using? The Adobe Campaign integration should support the usage of a reconciliation key, but it is possible that you are hitting a bug. I will look into this and let you know when I find out more.

Best regards

Hi Jochen,

Thanks for you reply.

I reached that same conclusion, that the only solution is to write a custom component. This would also allow a single form to handle both subscribing and unsubscribing, by ticking or unticking boxes (which makes more sense to me).

I'm more of a Campaign developer than an AEM one, but I'm going to look into it in the next few days. I'll update you on this if successful.

Cheers,

Martin


Hi Martin,

Can we exchange contact to support each other further in a more rapid way? I was already in the process of developing a custom component.

Hi everyone,

I noticed that quite a few people mentioned that issue with Reconciliation Key and existing profiles being re-created on Adobe Campaign side. I was wondering if anyone got any updates from Adobe on this topic. Currently I can see the issue exists with AEM 6.3 and Adobe Campaign Standard.

Best regards & thank you in advance,
