Key takeaways
In this module, you learned:
- Publishing an audience from CJA sends it to the Real-Time Customer Profile in Adobe Experience Platform. This is what makes the audience actionable beyond CJA itself — once it's in AEP, it can be used by other platform-based tools for targeting, personalization, and activation across channels. The audience doesn't stay inside CJA; it flows into the broader Adobe ecosystem.
- Histogram bucket size controls the granularity of the distribution. When building a histogram, the "metric bucket size" setting defines the width of each bar's data range. A bucket size of 100, for example, means each bar represents a span of 100 revenue units — so you're grouping people by ranges rather than individual values. Adjusting this setting changes how fine or coarse the distribution appears.
- Sharing a project always grants read-only access to people without CJA access. Whether the recipient is inside or outside your organization, if they don't have a CJA license, they can view the project but cannot edit it. This applies to both internal sharing and the "share with anyone" link — the access level doesn't change based on the person's role, only on whether they have a licensed workspace seat.
- One-time audience publishes are capped at a one-year date range. When publishing an audience based on a fixed historical window rather than a recurring refresh, the date range you select cannot span more than one year. This is an important constraint to plan around when building audiences from longer historical datasets.
- Two different sharing methods are needed for different recipient types. To give an internal colleague the ability to edit a project directly, you use "Share with Workspace users" and assign edit-original permissions. To give an external stakeholder view access without requiring an Adobe login, you use "Share with anyone" to generate a read-only link — with an optional requirement for Experience Cloud authentication if you want an added layer of security. These two paths serve distinct needs and cannot be substituted for each other.
