Examples of queries

This section lists several commonly used examples to query Journey Step Events in Data Lake.

Message/Action Errors

List of each error encountered in journeys

This query allows you to list each error encountered in journeys while executing a message/action.

Data Lake query

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName=<'message-name'>
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NOT NULL
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '<journey-version-id>'
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError

Example

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName='Message - 100KB Email with Gateway and Kafkav2'
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NOT NULL
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '67b14482-143e-4f83-9cf5-cfec0fca3d26'
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError

This query returns all the different errors that occurred while executing an action in a journey along with the count of how many times it occurred.

Profile-based queries

Find if a profile entered a specific Journey

Data Lake query

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
where
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '<journey-version-id>' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = '<profileID corresponding to the namespace used>'

Example

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
where
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = 'ec9efdd0-8a7c-4d7a-a765-b2cad659fa4e' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = 'saurgarg@adobe.com'

The result should be greater than 0. This query returns the exact number of times a profile has entered a journey.

Find if a profile was sent a specific message

Method 1: if the name of your message is not unique in the journey (it is used at multiple places).

Data Lake query

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events WHERE
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeID='<NodeId in the UI corresponding to the message>' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '<journey-version-id>' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = '<profileID corresponding to the namespace used>'

Example

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events WHERE
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeID='17ae65a1-02dd-439d-b54e-b56a78520eba' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '67b14482-143e-4f83-9cf5-cfec0fca3d26' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = 'saurgarg@adobe.com'

The result should be greater than 0. This query only tells us whether the message action was successfully executed on the journey side.

Method 2: if the name of your message is unique in the journey.

Data Lake query

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events WHERE
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName='<NodeName in the UI corresponding to the message>' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '<journey-version-id>' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = '<profileID corresponding to the namespace used>'

Example

SELECT count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events WHERE
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeID='Message- 100KB Email' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '67b14482-143e-4f83-9cf5-cfec0fca3d26' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = 'saurgarg@adobe.com'

The query returns the list of all messages along with their count invoked for the selected profile.

Find all the messages a profile has received in the last 30 days

Data Lake query

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE  _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeType = 'action' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = '<profileID corresponding to the namespace used>' AND
timestamp > (now() - interval '30' day)
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName

Example

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE  _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.actionExecutionError IS NULL AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeType = 'action' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = 'saurgarg@adobe.com' AND
timestamp > (now() - interval '30' day)
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeName

The query returns the list of all messages along with their count invoked for the selected profile.

Find all the journeys a profile has entered in the last 30 days

Data Lake query

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionName, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE  _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeType = 'start' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = '<profileID corresponding to the namespace used>' AND
timestamp > (now() - interval '30' day)
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionName

Example

SELECT _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionName, count(distinct _id) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE  _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.nodeType = 'start' AND
_experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID = 'saurgarg@adobe.com' AND
timestamp > (now() - interval '30' day)
GROUP BY _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionName

The query returns the list of all journey names along with the number of times the queried profile entered the journey.

Number of profiles that qualified for a journey daily

Data Lake query

SELECT DATE(timestamp), count(distinct _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE DATE(timestamp) > (now() - interval '<last x days>' day)
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '<journey-version-id>'
GROUP BY DATE(timestamp)
ORDER BY DATE(timestamp) desc

Example

SELECT DATE(timestamp), count(distinct _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.profileID) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE DATE(timestamp) > (now() - interval '100' day)
AND _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID = '180ad071-d42d-42bb-8724-2a6ff0a109f1'
GROUP BY DATE(timestamp)
ORDER BY DATE(timestamp) desc

The query resturns, for the defined period, the number of profiles that entered the journey each day. If a profile entered via multiple identities, it will be counted twice. If re-entrance is enabled, profile count might be duplicated accross different days if it re-entered the journey on different day.

Journey-based queries

Number of daily active journeys

Data Lake query

SELECT DATE(timestamp), count(distinct _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE DATE(timestamp) > (now() - interval '<last x days>' day)
GROUP BY DATE(timestamp)
ORDER BY DATE(timestamp) desc

Example

SELECT DATE(timestamp), count(distinct _experience.journeyOrchestration.stepEvents.journeyVersionID) FROM journey_step_events
WHERE DATE(timestamp) > (now() - interval '100' day)
GROUP BY DATE(timestamp)
ORDER BY DATE(timestamp) desc

The query returns, for the defined period, the count of unique journeys that triggered each day. A single journey triggering on multiple days will be counted once per day.
