Adobe Experience Platform - Not a valid URI reference

[user36079]

Hi,

"I encountered the error #/id: [8918e4ba-196d-4f3b-ae4c-1053465f5bb6:7df07op28c3a4pf8:0] is not a valid URI reference. Upon analysis, I suspect the issue might be related to the colons (:) in the value. However, I cannot fully understand this value, as currently, I no longer see this kind of value being generated. Could you provide insights into what might have caused this error and why it occurred only on that specific day?"

Hi @user36079 ,

Your understanding is correct, the colon characters are the issue here. If you follow the XDM ExperienceEvent class documentation, The _id field must be a uri-reference formatted string, meaning any colon characters must be removed. Afterwards, the concatenated value should be hashed using SHA-256 or another algorithm of your choice.

You should be able to fix the issue by following the format requirements.

Regarding your question on why it happened, it might be a bot activity or maybe someone tried to manually load this fields value. You can retrieve the failed event's payload and investigate further for possible root cause.

Cheers!

Hi @user36079  - I think this was a bug on Adobe's end, I use 3 different sandbox and for all the clients on 12th and 13th feb we see lot of failed batches due to this error. It should be resolved now.

Thanks,
