Map Adobe Analytics data feed columns to Customer Journey Analytics

A true 1:1 mapping between Adobe Analytics and Customer Journey Analytics data feed columns is not possible. The two products differ fundamentally, and each organization’s implementation can vary significantly.

This reference helps data engineers evaluate Adobe Analytics data feed columns and identify the closest Customer Journey Analytics equivalents for their workflows.

NOTE
This reference only includes columns that are considered current by Adobe, based on the Analytics data feed column reference. If you have an Analytics data feed column not listed on this table that you actively use, consult your organization’s solution design document to determine its best equivalent in Customer Journey Analytics.
accept_language

This Analytics data feed column contains both a pre-processed version and a post-processed version (a prefix of post_). Columns with a prefix of post_ contain the value that is ultimately used in reporting. Most organizations solely use post_ columns when they are available. The following table compares the properties of these columns:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 4-row-2
Pre-processed column value Post-processed column value

Before VISTA rules After VISTA rules
No allocation applied Allocation applies

Since Customer Journey Analytics does not have a concept of pre-processing and post-processing, recreating both columns in CJA data feeds is difficult. If you would like approximations of these columns, you can drag the same XDM field multiple times into the dimensions column to create multiple components with different attribution settings:

  • Pre-processed column: No attribution
  • Post-processed column: Apply the same allocation and expiration settings as its Analytics variable in data view settings. Most components would use an allocation of “Last” and an expiration of “Visit”.

The time of the hit in readable format, based on the report suite’s time zone.

You can use xdm.timestamp and apply the Date or Date-time Format component setting.

domain

The Domain dimension. Based on the visitor’s Internet access point.

Enable Network lookup when Configuring a datastream. The XDM field is xdm.environment.domain if it is included in your schema.

duplicated_from

Only used in report suites containing hit copy VISTA rules. Indicates which report suite that the hit was copied from.

This Analytics data feed column contains data that cannot be translated to a Customer Journey Analytics equivalent because of data architecture differences.

This column does not apply because Customer Journey Analytics does not have a concept of VISTA rules.

duplicate_events

Lists each event that was counted as a duplicate.

This Analytics data feed column contains data that cannot be translated to a Customer Journey Analytics equivalent because of data architecture differences.

Customer Journey Analytics does not have a singular field that acts as a deduplicate flag for all metrics. Instead, each metric contains its own Metric deduplication component settings. As such, there is no equivalent field in Customer Journey Analytics for this Adobe Analytics data feed column.

duplicate_purchase

A flag that determines if the purchase event for this hit is ignored because it is a duplicate.

While there isn’t a direct translation to this Analytics data feed column, its functionality of acting to deduplicate purchases still exists. If using the Commerce Details field group, you can set Metric deduplication component settings where the Deduplication ID is xdm.commerce.purchases.id.

If a direct translation is required where you want a flag for duplicate purchases, you can use a Derived field using the Deduplicate function in the ruleset.

event_list

Comma-separated list of numeric IDs that represent events triggered on the hit. Includes both commerce events and custom events 1-1000. Uses event.tsv lookup.

This column likely maps to dozens of separate metrics, depending on your implementation. Adobe recommends the following process to map each respective metric in Customer Journey Analytics to its numeric value represented in this Analytics data feed column:

  1. Use the event.tsv lookup to map each numeric value to its metric name.
  2. Use your solution design document to map each Analytics event name to its corresponding metric name in Customer Journey Analytics.
  3. Select the mapped component in the Data Views UI and note its component ID. If the component ID is too unwieldy, you can populate the data feed alias ID field and use that instead.
  4. Repeat for every metric that your organization uses.

This Analytics data feed column contains both a pre-processed version and a post-processed version (a prefix of post_). Columns with a prefix of post_ contain the value that is ultimately used in reporting. Most organizations solely use post_ columns when they are available. The following table compares the properties of these columns:

table 0-row-2 1-row-2 2-row-2 3-row-2 4-row-2
Pre-processed column value Post-processed column value
As it was collected Used in reporting
Before processing rules After processing rules
Before VISTA rules After VISTA rules
No allocation applied Allocation applies

Since Customer Journey Analytics does not have a concept of pre-processing and post-processing, recreating both columns in CJA data feeds is difficult. If you would like approximations of these columns, you can drag the same XDM field multiple times into the dimensions column to create multiple components with different attribution settings:

  • Pre-processed column: No attribution
  • Post-processed column: Apply the same allocation and expiration settings as its Analytics variable in data view settings. Most components would use an allocation of “Last” and an expiration of “Visit”.

If your schema uses the Commerce Details field group, some metrics might directly map to the following XDM fields:

  • Checkouts: xdm.commerce.checkouts.value
  • Cart adds: xdm.commerce.productListAdds.value
  • Cart opens: xdm.commerce.productListOpens.value
  • Cart removals: xdm.commerce.productListRemovals.value
  • Cart views: xdm.commerce.productListViews.value
  • Product views: xdm.commerce.productViews.value
  • Orders: xdm.commerce.purchases.value

Some metrics might use event serialization, which is how Adobe Analytics allows full control over deduplication. You can use the Metric deduplication component setting to achieve deduplication parity.

  • If your metric deduplicates by visit in Adobe Analytics, you can set the deduplication scope to session in that metric’s component settings.

  • If your metric deduplicates by event ID in Adobe Analytics, it is likely that the XDM object for that metric contains both a value and id field. If your schema uses the Commerce Details field group, those metrics likely reside in these XDM fields, which you can set the Deduplication ID field in the metric’s component settings:

    • Checkouts: xdm.commerce.checkouts.id
    • Cart adds: xdm.commerce.productListAdds.id
    • Cart opens: xdm.commerce.productListOpens.id
    • Cart removals: xdm.commerce.productListRemovals.id
    • Cart views: xdm.commerce.productListViews.id
    • Product views: xdm.commerce.productViews.id

If you’re looking to deduplicate the Orders metric, see duplicate_purchase.

exclude_hit

A flag that determines if the hit is excluded from reporting. The visit_num column is not incremented for excluded hits.

Customer Journey Analytics does not honor “excluded hits” out of the box. However, you can recreate this functionality if you have an XDM field that flags certain hits to be excluded:

  1. Ensure that the XDM field that flags excluded hits is included as a component (dimension or metric, depending on how you have this flag set up). Selecting Hide component in reporting is likely beneficial for this field.
  2. In Data view settings, select the Add segment drop-down menu and select Create segment.
  3. Create a segment that excludes all events where your exclude hit component exists or contains values that you want to exclude.
  4. Select Save on both the segment and the data view.

Excluded hits now do not exist in Customer Journey Analytics reporting, but are still available in data feed exports.
