6.3 Update your Configuration ID and Test your Journey

6.3.1 Update your Configuration ID

Before you can test your journey, you’ll need to update your Configuration ID settings and enter the EventID of the ldapAccountCreationEvent event on the Update Configuration ID page of the demo website Admin pages.

Open a clean, fresh incognito browser window and go to https://public.aepdemo.net/admin_configuration_update.html.

You’ll then see this.

Enter your Configuration ID and click Load Configuration.

After clicking Load Configuration, scroll down until you see the fields EventID - Account Creation.

In exercise 6.1, you created your event and collected the EventID. You can find it here:

In this example, the eventID is 71d98ef80980453e03a3bfc6aab57d15663784265a9363c097b6b9608f1a54bf.

Go back to the Update Configuration ID screen and paste the code that you copied in the field EventID - Account Creation.

Next, scroll down and click Update Configuration ID.

After this change, your Configuration ID is ready for testing!

When you clicked the CREATE ACCOUNT button, your ldapAccountCreationEvent has been triggered. In your Launch property, there’s a Launch rule named Create Account. This rule is triggered when you click the CREATE ACCOUNT button.

The AEP Web SDK - Send Event action is then sending the payload to Adobe Experience Platform.

The AEP Web SDK - Send Event action is referring to the data element ruleCreateAccount, which is configured like this:

Specifically, the data element ruleCreateAccount refers to another data element eventIdAccountCreation which picks up the orchestration ID you configured in your Configuration ID. This is how the journey is eventually triggered.
