Work with Campaign and Experience Cloud Triggers about-adobe-experience-triggers

Triggers is an integration between Adobe Campaign and Adobe Analytics using the pipeline. The pipeline retrieves users’ actions or triggers from your website. A cart abandonment is an example of trigger. Triggers are processed in Adobe Campaign to send emails in near real time.

CAUTION
This capability is not available out of the box as part of the product. For this implementation, work with your Adobe representative / Customer Care. You will then be able to follow the steps detailed in this page.

Triggers run marketing actions within a short range of time following a user’s action. The typical response time is less than one hour.

It allows for more agile integrations since the configuration is minimal and a third party is not involved.
It also supports high volumes of traffic without impacting the performance of marketing activities. As an example, the integration can process a million triggers per hour.

Discover how to create an Experience Cloud trigger and identify, define, and monitor critical consumer behaviors.

Triggers architecture triggers-architecture

The pipelined process is always running on the Adobe Campaign marketing server. It connects to the pipeline, retrieves the events, and processes them immediately.

The pipelined process logs in to the Experience Cloud using an authentication service and sends a private key. The authentication service returns a token. The token is used to authenticate when retrieving the events.

Prerequisites adobe-io-prerequisites

Before starting this implementation, please check you have:

  • a valid Organization identifier: the Organization ID is the unique identifier within the Adobe Experience Cloud, used for example for the VisitorID service and the IMS Single-Sign On (SSO). Learn more
  • a Developer access to your Organization. The System administrator of the organization needs to follow the Add developers to a single product profile procedure detailed in this page to provide developer access for the Analytics - {tenantID} Product Profile of the Adobe Analytics Product associated with Triggers.

Implementation steps implement

To implement Campaign and Experience Cloud Triggers, follow the steps below:

  1. Create an OAuth project. Learn more

  2. Add your OAuth project credentials in Adobe Campaign. Learn more

  3. Update the authentication type to the Developer console project in the configuration file config-< instance-name >.xml as follows:

    code language-none
    <pipelined ... authType="imsJwtToken"  ... />
    

    Then, run a config -reload and a restart of the pipelined for the changes to be taken into account.
