Access parameters and IDs from RT-CDP via Websdk and mobile sdk

Question

Hi everyone,

In my current adobe setup, I have AEP, Event forwarding and Adobe data collection. The use case I have requires me to send data from Websdk to Event forwarding property to Google Analytics. For this particular use case, I need to generate new google client if it doesnt exist and use the existing google client ID if it does exist. How can I do so? Is there a way for me to refer to IDs/parameters stored in AEP using rules or data element in Data collection/launch? If this can be achieved, is this near real time? What is the delay here?

TLDR; Refer to data stored in AEP using adobe launch/data collection.

Thanks for helping :))

There is currently no way to access profile information in server-side forwarding. I once heard that Adobe might introduce this at some point, but currently server-side only has access to the raw event data.

So, if you need to access any kind of user identifiers, they have to come with the event payload.

Using the AEP APIs could be quite cumbersome, so my recommendation would be the above mentioned approach.

Hi @aakash_13

it should be explained here: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-platform/tags/event-forwarding/overview

So, for your Google ID you should make sure to put the logic in launch client-side and throw it into the request payload. In this case, I would suggest using the freeform "data" section which does not require a predefined XDM schema e.g. data.google.id or whatever makes sense to you.

This you can then reference in Launch server-side data elements with arc.event.data.google.id

As mentioned, I would keep the logic on launch client-side since it is a lot easier to debug.
