1. One eCommerce company wants to capture the product details (product name, product category, product price) purchased online by a customer. They also want to capture the latest product details (product name, product category, product price) purchased by the customer. What would be the best way of creating the necessary schemas? What are the various XDM Components you will be creating to implement this?
In my opinion, we will be needing an experience data model (XDM), Product class to capture product name, product category, product price and other set of properties that define a retail product. We can leverage pre-define field groups for Product catalog and Product Category for additional fields.
One more solution I can think of is to use relational schema to map XDM experience event schema class field with product schema.
Example: Product SKU field from XDM experience event field, mapped with product schema
If they want to store the latest product details, I will configure product name, product category, product price fields as an array in schema field definition.
2. How can we construct XDM for one-to-many relationship-based data objects in B2C based AEP
As mentioned in the above answer 1, within the schema UI, you can setup the relationship.
3. What are the allowed schema changes after marking the schema and dataset profile enabled?
- Adding Optional Fields: You can add new optional fields to the schema.
- Updating Display Names: You can change the display names of existing fields.
- Changing Descriptions: You can update the descriptions of fields.
- Adding Metadata: You can add, or update metadata associated with the schema or fields.
- Adding Relationships: You can define new relationships between existing schemas.
4. What are the required fields you have for any experience event schema?
- _id
- Timestamp
5. What are the 3 types of core entities we can have in AEP?
Category | Description |
Profile entities | Profile entities represent attributes relating to an individual person, typically a customer. Entities that fall under this category should be represented by schemas based on the XDM Individual Profile class. |
Lookup entities | Lookup entities represent concepts that can relate to an individual person, but cannot be directly used to identify the individual. Entities that fall under this category should be represented by schemas based on custom classes, and are linked to profiles and events through schema relationships. |
Event entities | Event entities represent concepts related to actions that a customer can take, system events, or any other concepts where you may want to track changes over time. Entities that fall under this category should be represented by schemas based on the XDM ExperienceEvent class. |
6. A retail company wants to capture the purchase information from both online and store. While purchasing from stores, customer uses phone number as identity and when they purchase from online, they log in using email address. If we want to construct one single schema to capture the purchase information in AEP, then how we will manage the identities? Note: all the purchase related information are exactly same other than the availability of email and phone.
- Create Unified Schema: Define a schema in AEP that includes both email and phone number fields alongside purchase information.
- Configure Identity Map: Use the identityMap to store and manage both email and phone number identities.
- Data Ingestion: When ingesting data, populate the identityMap with the appropriate identifiers based on the source of the purchase (online or in-store).
- Profile Stitching: AEP will use the identityMap to stitch profiles together, ensuring that purchases from both online and in-store channels are associated with the same customer profile
