Analytics events captured via AEP Web SDK is populating as dimensions in customer journey analytic

[Sneha-Parmar]

Hi All,

In my AEP web sdk implementation, I am sending analytics event 8 to AEP on start of a registration form. However I am seeing this event populated as dimension in customer journey analytics and not as metrics. Below are the steps I did.

Can anyone please guide me what I need to do to capture these events as metrics and use in CJA or point me to a documentation on how to capture analytics events as metrics from sdk ?

1) created an XDM data element to map event 8 to form start id name and value

2) create a rule in Launch to fire on form start. (this is working fine and data is seen in both AEP Debugger and Dataset)

3) Event 8 is appearing as dimension in CJA workspace and not as metric.

If you are well-aware of Adobe Analytics, you can use this documentation to understand the differences and terminology of CJA as compared to Analytics.

If you are new to both, use this documentation and follow the steps to use CJA.
