NOTE

Dataflow runs view

Dataflow runs duration

There is a difference in the displayed duration of dataflow runs between streaming and file-based destinations.

Streaming destinations

While the Processing duration indicated for most streaming dataflow runs is about four hours, as shown in the image below, the actual processing time for any dataflow run is much shorter. Dataflow run windows stay open for longer in the event that Experience Platform needs to retry making calls to the destination and also ensure to ensure it does not miss out on any late arriving data for same time window.

For more information, read about dataflow runs to streaming destinations in the monitoring documentation.

File-based destinations

For dataflow runs to file-based destinations, the Processing duration depends on the size of the data being exported and the system load. Notice also that the dataflow runs to file-based destinations are broken down per segment.

For more information, read about dataflow runs to batch (file-based) destinations in the monitoring documentation.

Activation data

The Activation data tab displays a list of segments that have been mapped to the destination, including their start date and end date (if applicable), and other relevant information for the data export, such as export type, schedule, and frequency.
