What is the fastest way to identify profiles excluded from destination activation

[stephentmerkle]

I've been receiving the error below while activating to a streaming destination. Is there a way to figure out which profiles were excluded from being activated? One idea is to create the same audience as a batch audience and activate to a sftp or S3 bucket. Then identify the profiles that were excluded.

Another is to query the profile snapshot to identify profiles that are part of the audience and then query them further for the existence of the required identity attribute.

Is there a simpler/faster way or log where AEP would actually show you example profiles whenever it excludes them from being activated to a streaming destination? Wanting to know before I embark on researching via the approaches above....

Error description provided in the 'Dataflow Run details' screen for the destination activation:

'No valid identities were found on the profile. This can indicate that several of the exported profiles are missing an identity attribute that was set as source field in the destination mapping. Please review the destination mapping and the identities on the exported profiles.'

Hi @stephentmerkle 

The way we have done this in the past is the same as you have mentioned above. Using S3 bucket to export the file and then validate from there.

Hi @stephentmerkle ,

May be you can use query service to identify which profiles are missing required identities.
