Hi @harikrishnadevanabowina 
As AJO is a licensed Adobe product, you'll need to contact Adobe directly to obtain a license. Once you have access to AJO, the community can assist you with specific setup questions, such as configuring your sandbox environment, data ingestion, permission-related questions etc.

Hi @Pradeep_Kumar_Srivastav I have access to AJO on my sandbox instance.

I am looking for 'get started' guide so I can utilize this the best way instead of trying in bits and pieces.

Hello @harikrishnadevanabowina ,

Setting up Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO) in a sandbox environment, managing data availability, and configuring permissions are crucial steps for successfully leveraging AJO’s capabilities. Here’s a detailed guide to help you through these processes:

Setting Up Adobe Journey Optimizer (AJO) Sandbox

1. Access Adobe Experience Cloud:

   • Log in to your Adobe Experience Cloud account. Ensure that you have the necessary administrative permissions to create and manage sandboxes.

2. Create a Sandbox Environment:

   • Navigate to Admin Console.
   • Go to Environments or Sandboxes depending on your account structure.
   • Click on Create Sandbox or similar options.
   • Follow the prompts to set up a new sandbox. You’ll need to provide a name, description, and other relevant details for the sandbox environment.

3. Configure Adobe Journey Optimizer in the Sandbox:

   • Once the sandbox is created, navigate to Adobe Journey Optimizer within the Adobe Experience Cloud.
   • Access the sandbox environment to begin configuration.
   • Follow the setup wizard or configuration steps provided by Adobe to integrate AJO into your sandbox environment. This may involve connecting to other Adobe solutions like Adobe Experience Platform or Adobe Analytics.

4. Load Sample Data (if applicable):

   • If you are using a sandbox environment for testing, you may need to load sample data to simulate real-world scenarios. This can usually be done through data import tools or by using Adobe’s sample datasets.

Managing Data Availability

1. Data Integration:

   • Ensure that your sandbox environment is integrated with data sources such as Adobe Experience Platform (AEP), CRM systems, or other databases.
   • Use data connectors or APIs to pull in data into the sandbox environment for testing and development purposes.

2. Data Synchronization:

   • Regularly synchronize data between your sandbox and production environments to ensure consistency and accuracy.
   • Set up data sync schedules if your data sources are updated frequently.

3. Testing Data:

   • Validate the data available in your sandbox environment. Ensure that it mirrors the types of data you expect to handle in production.
   • Perform tests to check data integrity, completeness, and accuracy.

Configuring Permissions

1. User Roles and Access Control:

   • Go to Admin Console and select your sandbox environment.
   • Navigate to the Users or Permissions section.
   • Define user roles and permissions based on the responsibilities of each team member. Common roles might include:
     • Admin: Full access to all features and settings.
     • Editor: Access to create and modify campaigns and journeys.
     • Viewer: Read-only access to reports and data.

2. Assign Roles:

   • Assign roles to users based on their needs. For example, marketing managers might need editor access to create journeys, while data analysts might need viewer access to review performance reports.

3. Review and Audit Permissions:

   • Regularly review permissions to ensure they are aligned with current organizational needs and that no excessive privileges are granted.
   • Perform audits to track changes in permissions and access levels.

4. Data Privacy and Security:

   • Implement data privacy and security measures to protect sensitive data. Ensure that only authorized users have access to confidential information.
   • Comply with relevant regulations and best practices for data protection.
