    "ups": {
      "ce0b8386-ef2a-4244-8ad0-1a72d6494181": {
        "status": "realized",
        "lastQualificationTime": "2025-12-15T23:11:49Z"
      },
      "8ce516fe-920a-4f9d-b92b-0403890a8491": {
        "status": "realized",
        "lastQualificationTime": "2025-12-12T15:01:01Z"
      }
    }
NOTE
How to read segmentMembership?
https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/experience-platform/xdm/field-groups/profile/segmentation
ups: This is the map key for different kinds of audiences supported by AEP. The ups key contains audiences created by the Rule Builder. Other audiences will be contained in other keys (e.g. AAM).
lastQualificationTime A timestamp of the last time this profile qualified for the segment
status
realized: The profile qualifies for the segment.
exited: The profile is exiting the segment as part of the current request.

Via UI

  1. An easier way to validate the Profile has qualified for the Audiences is by looking at the Audience Membership tab (you should see at least these):

    • dep: Any Event Streaming (within the hour)
    • dep: Any Event Edge (within the hour)

Audience Membership tab showing qualified segments

NOTE
Why no Batch Audience?
You should not see dep: Any Event Batch (within the day) qualified for since we streamed in data and batch evaluation happens once a day.

Recap

A profile exists on the Hub and is qualified for the expected audience.
