Tracking of profile updates in AEP

Hi, 

 

Is there a way to if a specific attribute was updated during streaming ingestion and only qualify users whose values were updated in that specific ingestion into a journey. I know we can audiences, but audiences would consider already existing profiles in AEP that has those values as well. We'd just like to check for the new profiles that are updated with each ingestion (not scheduled). Also, these attributes are profile attributes and not events

Hi @trojan_horse  - With streaming ingestion data is updated almost real time in the profile store, but data in datalake is updated via batch ingestion method only. If you know which profile attribute you want to check for changes then you can write a query in query console and export it to a dataset to know the result.

 

Thanks,

Arpan

@trojan_horse i would suggest two options here 

- use query service and ensure ingested Profile data include a timestamp field (e.g., lastupdated).

- user profile API to fetch specific identity, results would include the latest value
