In V8 Adobe Campaign Classic, data from local PostgreSQL tables is not being replicated to the
Snowflake database. Which OOTB workflow should the developer look at to troubleshoot the issue?
C
Explanation:
In Adobe Campaign Classic V8, FFDA (Federated Data Access) is responsible for managing data
replication between local data sources (e.g., PostgreSQL) and external databases (e.g., Snowflake).
When local PostgreSQL tables are not being replicated to Snowflake, the workflow to review is:
Replicate FFDA Data (fdaReplicate):
This workflow is designed to manage the replication of FFDA data across different databases,
including Snowflake. It checks and synchronizes data between the on-premise database and the
cloud database, ensuring that records are consistently replicated.
Thus, if replication to Snowflake is failing, the fdaReplicate workflow is the primary OOTB workflow
to inspect and troubleshoot any replication issues.
A developer wants to send an alert to an operator that contains the names of profiles who opened
the newsletter. The profile’s first and last name fields are linked to the recipients targeting
dimension, whereas the alert activity is linked to the operator targeting dimension. What activities
would the developer need to send the notification?
B
Explanation:
In this scenario, the goal is to send an alert containing profile information (first and last names) of
those who opened a newsletter, but the alert is directed to an operator (not directly tied to the
recipient schema):
Query Activity:
The workflow begins with a Query activity to identify profiles who opened the newsletter. This will
extract the relevant recipient data.
Enrichment Activity:
Since the alert needs profile names but is tied to the operator dimension, an Enrichment activity is
essential. It joins the recipient’s data (first and last name) to the alert’s targeting dimension, bridging
the recipient and operator data.
Test Activity:
A Test activity can be used to filter and ensure that only the intended profiles are included before the
alert is generated.
Alert Activity:
Finally, the Alert activity is configured to send a notification to the operator with the enriched profile
data.
Therefore, the correct sequence to achieve this functionality is Query > Enrichment > Test > Alert, as
it ensures that the necessary profile data is linked to the operator dimension for the alert.
A developer identifies that click and open data has not been updated for a long time. Which OOTB
technical workflow should be checked in order to troubleshoot this issue?
B
Explanation:
In Adobe Campaign Classic, the Tracking workflow is responsible for collecting and updating tracking
data, such as opens and clicks, associated with email deliveries. If tracking data has not been
updated, this workflow is crucial to check:
Tracking (tracking) Workflow:
This OOTB (Out-of-the-Box) technical workflow processes and imports tracking logs from the delivery
server. It updates the database with data about how recipients interact with sent emails, such as
opens and clicks. If there is an issue with the tracking data not being updated, this workflow might
have failed or be misconfigured.
Therefore, reviewing the Tracking (tracking) workflow can help identify issues with data collection
and update processes for email interactions.
A developer is using a test activity to verify if the result is generated or not. Which test condition
should be used?
B
Explanation:
The Test Activity in Adobe Campaign Classic is used to verify conditions within a workflow. When the
objective is to check whether a result has been generated, the condition should confirm that the
record count (recCount) is greater than zero:
Condition Explanation:
vars.recCount holds the count of records returned by the workflow segment. If vars.recCount > 0, it
indicates that records have been found, meaning the result is generated. This is the standard check
to verify the presence of data in the context of the workflow.
Thus, vars.recCount > 0 is the appropriate condition to verify if there is a non-zero result.
An Adobe Campaign Classic developer is working on an import workflow. The format of the file to be
imported is CSV. An aggregate must be computed in the workflow. Which three components should
be used to implement the import workflow to update the data? (Choose three)
A, C, D
Explanation:
When creating an import workflow in Adobe Campaign Classic to load a CSV file, compute an
aggregate, and update data, the following components are essential:
Data Loading:
This activity is used to import data from a file (e.g., a CSV) into the workflow. It reads the CSV file and
brings the data into the Adobe Campaign workflow for processing.
Enrichment:
The Enrichment activity is employed to compute aggregates, such as sums or averages, within the
workflow. It allows the developer to extend data by adding calculated fields or aggregating based on
specific criteria.
Update Data:
Once the data is enriched with the necessary aggregates, the Update Data activity is used to update
records in the database. This activity can insert new records, modify existing ones, or perform both
actions based on the imported and processed data.
Using Data Loading, Enrichment, and Update Data components in this sequence enables effective
import and data processing within the workflow.
A client requires downloading a CSV file from an AWS S3 bucket on a scheduled basis and processing
the contents to update a custom schema in the Adobe Campaign Classic instance. Which component
should be used to implement the AWS S3 connection?
D
Explanation:
In Adobe Campaign Classic, an External Account is the correct component for connecting to an
external data source like AWS S3:
External Account:
This configuration allows Adobe Campaign to interact with external systems via protocols such as
SFTP, HTTP, or cloud storage services like AWS S3. For this scenario, the developer would set up an
External Account with the AWS S3 connection details, enabling scheduled file downloads directly
from the S3 bucket.
By configuring an External Account, the workflow can seamlessly connect to the AWS S3 bucket and
retrieve the CSV files for processing and updating the custom schema in Adobe Campaign.
A customer has an in-house CRM application that needs to create, update, and delete custom data
stored in the Adobe Campaign Classic instance. What are the two minimum prerequisites for the
CRUD operations to work? (Choose two)
A, C
Explanation:
For the CRM application to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on Adobe
Campaign Classic data, the following prerequisites must be met:
Whitelist CRM Application's Server IP:
Whitelisting the IP address of the CRM server ensures that only authorized systems can access the
Adobe Campaign instance. This is an important security measure to prevent unauthorized access and
facilitate secure communication between the CRM application and Adobe Campaign.
Authenticate as a Technical Operator with Appropriate Rights:
CRUD operations require the CRM application to authenticate as a technical operator with the
necessary permissions. The technical operator should have sufficient rights to create, update, and
delete data in the Adobe Campaign database, ensuring that it can manage the custom data correctly.
These two prerequisites ensure secure and authorized access for the CRM application to perform
CRUD operations within the Adobe Campaign Classic environment.
An Adobe Campaign Classic Developer needs to set up a workflow that imports customer data from
an S3 bucket on a daily basis. The records must be stored in an existing Campaign table. Which
sequence of workflow activities should the Developer use?
B
Explanation:
To set up a workflow that imports customer data from an S3 bucket daily and stores it in an existing
Adobe Campaign table, the following sequence of activities is appropriate:
Scheduler:
This activity schedules the workflow to run daily, triggering the data import process at a specified
time.
File Transfer:
The File Transfer activity is used to download files from an external source, such as an S3 bucket. It
ensures that the data file is available locally within the Campaign environment for processing.
Data Loading:
This activity reads the downloaded file (e.g., CSV format) and loads the data into a temporary table
or directly into the workflow for further processing.
Update Data:
Finally, the Update Data activity inserts or updates the existing records in the Campaign table with
the imported customer data, ensuring that the table reflects the latest information.
Using this sequence, Scheduler, File transfer, Data loading, Update data, facilitates a streamlined
import process that handles data transfer, loading, and updating efficiently.
A developer is building a workflow to insert a customer's favorite video game from a file collected by
SFTP. An enrichment activity is used to reconcile the file data and recipient data, allowing the file
data to be used to personalize deliveries. How will these personalization fields appear in the delivery
content?
A
Explanation:
In Adobe Campaign Classic, when using an Enrichment activity to reconcile data from an external file
and associate it with recipient data, the personalization fields appear in the delivery content as
follows:
<%= targetData.FIELD %>:
The targetData object is used for personalization fields resulting from an Enrichment activity. It
represents the enriched data available for targeting in the delivery content. In this case, FIELD would
be the specific field name (e.g., favoriteGame) from the file that was reconciled with recipient data.
Using <%= targetData.FIELD %> ensures that the enriched fields are accessible for personalization
within the delivery content, accurately reflecting the data imported through the workflow.
In Adobe Campaign Classic V8, how to update or delete data using an API call?
C
Explanation:
In Adobe Campaign Classic V8, the API method xtk.session.ingestWrite is used to perform update or
delete operations on data records. This method allows direct manipulation of data within the
Campaign database, specifically supporting write operations to update existing records or remove
them as needed:
Ingest Write Capability:
The ingestWrite method is designed to handle CRUD operations, where it can modify or delete data
in tables as specified. This makes it the correct choice for scenarios that require both updating and
deleting records programmatically through an API call.
Using xtk.session.ingestWrite, developers can effectively manage data records in Adobe Campaign
V8, including making updates and performing deletions directly through API requests.
