Add representations to an offer add-representations

An offer can be displayed at different places in a message: in a top banner with an image, as text in a paragraph, as an HTML block, etc. The more representations an offer has, the more opportunities exist to use the offer in different placement contexts.

Configure the offer’s representations representations

To add one or multiple representations to your offer and configure them, follow the steps below.

  1. For the first representation, start by selecting the Channel that will be used.

  2. Select a placement from the list.

    You can also use the button next to the Placement drop-down list to browse all the placements.

    There you can still filter the placements according to their channel and/or content type. Choose a placement and click Select.

  3. Add content to your representation. Learn how in this section.

  4. When you add content such as an image or URL, you can specify a Destination link: the users who click the offer will be directed to the corresponding page.

Define content for your representations content

You can add different types of content to a representation.

NOTE
Only content corresponding to the placement’s content type is available for use.

Add images images

If the selected placement is image-type, you can add content coming from the Adobe Experience Cloud Asset library, a centralized repository of assets provided by Adobe Experience Manager Assets.

NOTE
To work with Adobe Experience Manager Assets Essentials, you need to deploy Assets Essentials for your organization and make sure that users are a part of the Assets Essentials Consumer Users or/and Assets Essentials Users Product profiles. Learn more on this page.
  1. Choose the Asset library option.

  2. Select Browse.

  3. Browse the assets to select the image of your choice

  4. Click Select.

Add HTML or JSON files html-json

If the selected placement is HTML-type, you can also add HTML or JSON content coming from the Adobe Experience Cloud Asset library).

For example, you created an HTML email template in Adobe Experience Manager and you want to use that file for your offer content. Instead of creating a new file, you can simply upload the template into the Asset Library to be able to reuse it in your offer’s representations.

To reuse your content in a representation, browse the Asset Library as described in this section and select the HTML or JSON file of your choice.

Add URLs urls

To add content from an external public location, select URL, then enter the URL address of the content to add.

You can personalize URLs using the Expression editor. Learn more on personalization.

For example, you want to personalize the image that is shown as an offer. You want users who favor city vacations to see the NYC skyline and users who favor beach vacations to see the Hawaii northshore.

Use the Expression Editor to retrieve Profile attributes stored in the Adobe Experience Platform using union schemas. Learn more

If you specify a Destination link, you can also personalize the URL to which the users who click the offer will be directed.

    NOTE
    Only the Profile attributes, Audiences and Helper functions sources are available for Decision Management.

Personalize representations based on context data context-data

When context data is passed in the Edge decisioning call, you can leverage these data to personalize representations dynamically. For instance, you can tailor the representation of an offer based on real-time factors such as current weather conditions at the moment the decision is made.

To do this, incorporate the context data variable directly within the representation content by using the profile.timeSeriesEvents. namespace.

Here is a syntax example used to personalize an offer’s representation based on users’ operating systems:

 {%#if profile.timeSeriesEvents.device.model = "Apple"%}ios{%else%}android{%/if%}

The corresponding Edge decisioning request including the context data is as follows:

{
    "body": {
        "xdm": {
            "identityMap": {
                "Email": [
                    {
                        "id": "xyz@abc.com"
                    }
                ]
            },
            "device": {
                "model": "Apple"
            }
        },
        "extra": {
            "query": {
                "decisionScopes": [
                    "eyJ4ZG06..."
                ]
            }
        }
    }
}
