Import event data from a partner web site

Hallo all,

 

We are using the adobe platform sdk in our web site to send event data to Aep, Analytics etc. 

 

Now we want to receive an event from a partner web site (one call when the user submits a form) and sent this data to the same datastreams we use in our website. 

 

I wanted to ask what is the better approach to do this. Maybe using the http source connector in Aep? Or we should have a data storage to send the data? 

In all the case, if we use aep functionalities, we won't have this data into Adobe Analytics,  right?

 

Thanks a lot to everyone

@nick_2024 If there is a way to do it client side, you should consider that. 

It is probably the most easiest way to set this up

@nick_2024 Since it is a different org, I have them send you the data.  Options: 

  1. Event Forwarding Probably what you want
  2. Streaming Destinations (Segment based)

Thank you very much! the doubt i have is that this are functionalities to send data from a website that has the adobe aep suite to an external partner. The case is a little different, an external website (not having the sdk implemented) should send data to a website already using the adobe sdk. however i think it's a good point that it is an external org

@nick_2024 If this a website and they are ok to implement SDK, You could have them send it either 

  1. Client side: Via websdk pointing to same datastream 
  2. Server side:  without any client side code create a http source for the datastream and they could send data from their server directly to AEP instance

Thank you very much. However i have a doubt. the client side implementation seems easier but is it recommended? Or we have to use the http source
