Problems with sending an audience that was created from a CSV file

Hello everyone

 

I'm currently trying to send an audience created from a CSV file from RT CDP to a  POS destination. When I make the audience with the option "Import audience", this action automatically creates an dataset and a adhoc schema which i can't activate to profile. When I try to send this audience to the destination it shows an error saying that the dataset is no activated to profile. How can I activate this imported audience? or how can i activate this dataset to profile to commit my sending ?. Thanks a lot. I look forward for your answers.

Hi @juanorozco_96 

When enabling for profile, have you enabled the schema first and then attempted the dataset? Or are you having issues even getting that far?

Hi @davidross91,

I'm having this same problem. When I import an external audience created from a CSV file, it automatically creates an adhoc schema and dataset. When I view the schema, there is no way to enable it for profile. Other schemas that I create manually do have the option available, but the adhoc schemas that get created through importing audiences via csv do not appear to have the option. Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Mike! Instead of doing it this way, can you do a local file upload on your profile Schema? This way it should get ingested into your Profile spec and you should be able to utilize it as any other audienc/profile.

You can do this by going to Sources in AEP, Local File Upload and then go through the mapping. This feature is extremely helpful.

Thanks for this advise! I can try that, but will need to figure out how to create an audience from the dataset. My high level goal is activate these externally defined audienes to Adobe Target. One thing I've tried is to use a segment definition schema with a non-person identifier marked as primary identity, with our custom identiy added to that to identify the customer - that allows me to target the dataset in the segment builder, but unfortunately no profiles are realzied in that segment. I'm wondering if at this point I need switch external customer Id to primary within the segment definition.

Thanks, Mike
