Adobe Experience Platform release notes
Existing
status will be deprecated from the segment membership map in order to remove redundancy in the segment membership lifecycle. After this change, profiles qualified in a segment will be represented as Realized
and profiles disqualified will continue to be represented as Exited
. For more details on this change, please read the Segmentation Service section.Release date: April 26, 2023
Updates to existing features in Adobe Experience Platform:
Dashboards dashboards
Adobe Experience Platform provides multiple dashboards through which you can view important insights about your organization’s data, as captured during daily snapshots.
New or updated features
You can also now duplicate your existing widgets. By customizing a duplicate and editing their attributes, you can avoid restarting from the beginning when creating a new, unique widget. Read the widget duplication guide to learn more.
For more information on dashboards, including how to grant access permissions and create custom widgets, begin by reading the dashboards overview.
Data Prep data-prep
Data Prep allows data engineers to map, transform, and validate data to and from Experience Data Model (XDM).
Updated features
fpid_to_ecid
function to convert FPID strings into ECID for use in Experience Platform and Experience Cloud applications. For more information, read the Data Prep functions guide.For more information on Data Prep, please read the Data Prep overview.
Data Collection data-collection
Adobe Experience Platform provides a suite of technologies that allow you to collect client-side customer experience data and send it to the Adobe Experience Platform Edge Network where it can be enriched, transformed, and distributed to Adobe or non-Adobe destinations.
New or updated features
The datastream-level IP obfuscation setting takes precedence over any IP obfuscation configured in Adobe Target and Audience Manager.
Data sent to Adobe Analytics is not impacted by the datastream-level IP Obfuscation setting. Adobe Analytics currently receives unobfuscated IP addresses. For Analytics to receive obfuscated IP addresses, you must configure IP obfuscation separately, in Adobe Analytics. This behavior will be updated in future releases.
For more details about IP obfuscation and instructions on how to configure it, see the datastream configuration documentation.
You can now define additional configuration options for datastreams, which you can use to override specific settings, such as event datasets, Target property tokens, ID sync containers, and Analytics report suites.
Overriding datastream configurations is a two step process:
- First, you must define your datastream configuration overrides in the datastream configuration page.
- Then, you must send the overrides to the Edge Network either via a Web SDK command, or by using the Web SDK tag extension.
Destinations destinations
Destinations are pre-built integrations with destination platforms that allow for the seamless activation of data from Adobe Experience Platform. You can use destinations to activate your known and unknown data for cross-channel marketing campaigns, email campaigns, targeted advertising, and many other use cases.
New destinations
New or updated functionality
You can now see activation metrics for the Adobe Commerce, Custom Personalization and the Custom Personalization With Attributes connections.
See Monitor dataflows in the Destinations workspace for more details.
You can now have the segment name in Google Ad Manager and Google Ad Manager 360 include the segment ID from Experience Platform, like this: Segment Name (Segment ID)
.
For the Google Display & Video 360 destination, the activation of audience backfills to the destination is scheduled to occur 24-48 hours after a segment is first mapped to a destination connection. This update is in response to Google’s policy to wait 24 hours until ingesting data and will improve match rates between Real-Time CDP and Google Display & Video 360.
Note that this is a backend configuration applicable to this destination only and that is unrelated to any customer-configurable scheduling options in the UI.
Fixes and enhancements
- We have fixed an issue in the Identities excluded reporting metrics for file-based destination exports. Customers were receiving all the exported IDs from the activated export as expected. However, the Identities excluded reporting metric in the UI was incorrectly displaying high numbers of excluded identities due to incorrectly counting identities that were never supposed to be exported. (PLAT-149774)
- We have fixed an issue in the Scheduling step of the activation workflow. For destinations that require a mapping ID, customers were not able to add a mapping ID for segments added to existing destination connections. (PLAT-148808)
For more general information on destinations, refer to the destinations overview.
Experience Data Model (XDM) xdm
XDM is an open-source specification that provides common structures and definitions (schemas) for data that is brought into Adobe Experience Platform. By adhering to XDM standards, all customer experience data can be incorporated into a common representation to deliver insights in a faster, more integrated way. You can gain valuable insights from customer actions, define customer audiences through segments, and use customer attributes for personalization purposes.
Updated features

This flexibility allows for improved field discoverability and editing of your schemas. The display names for standard field groups are system generated but can also be customized through the UI if required. Please read the display name toggle documentation to learn more.
New XDM components
Updated XDM components
xdm:upgradeDate
from “Program Name” to “Upgrade Date”.For more information on XDM in Experience Platform, read the XDM System overview.
Real-Time Customer Data Platform
Built on Experience Platform, Real-Time Customer Data Platform (Real-Time CDP) helps companies bring together known and unknown data to activate customer profiles with intelligent decisioning throughout the customer journey. Real-Time CDP combines multiple enterprise data sources to create customer profiles in real time. Segments built from these profiles can then be sent to downstream destinations in order to provide one-to-one personalized customer experiences across all channels and devices.
New features
For more information on Real-Time CDP, see the Real-Time CDP overview.
Real-Time Customer Profile profile
Adobe Experience Platform enables you to drive coordinated, consistent, and relevant experiences for your customers no matter where or when they interact with your brand. With Real-Time Customer Profile, you can see a holistic view of each individual customer that combines data from multiple channels, including online, offline, CRM, and third party data. Profile allows you to consolidate customer data into a unified view offering an actionable, timestamped account of every customer interaction.
Updated features
Segmentation Service segmentation
Segmentation Service defines a particular subset of profiles by describing the criteria that distinguishes a marketable group of people within your customer base. Segments can be based on record data (such as demographic information) or time series events representing customer interactions with your brand.
New or updated features
Existing
status will be deprecated from the segment membership map in order to remove redundancy in the segment membership lifecycle. After this change, profiles qualified in a segment will be represented as Realized
and profiles disqualified will continue to be represented as Exited
.This change could impact you if, you’re using enterprise destinations (Amazon Kinesis, Azure Event Hubs, HTTP API), and might have automated downstream processes in place based on the
Existing
status. If this is the case for you, please review your downstream integrations. If you are interested in identifying newly qualified profiles beyond a certain time, please consider using a combination of the Realized
status and the lastQualificationTime
in your segment membership map. For more information, please reach out to your Adobe representative.For more information on Segmentation Service, please see the Segmentation overview.
Sources sources
Adobe Experience Platform can ingest data from external sources and allows you to structure, label, and enhance that data using Experience Platform services. You can ingest data from a variety of sources such as Adobe applications, cloud-based storage, third-party software, and your CRM system.
Experience Platform provides a RESTful API and an interactive UI that lets you set up source connections for various data providers with ease. These source connections allow you to authenticate and connect to external storage systems and CRM services, set times for ingestion runs, and manage data ingestion throughput.
