Datasets health checks
The datasets health check scans your sandbox for profile-enabled dataset counts approaching the platform limit for each schema class.

Profile dataset count profile-dataset-count
Scans the number of profile-enabled datasets against the platform limit for each schema class.
Detail
Description
Issue
The number of profile-enabled datasets based on the XDM Individual Profile class, or the number based on the XDM ExperienceEvent class, is approaching the limit of 20.
Impact
An excessive number of profile-enabled datasets impacts the performance and throughput of both batch and streaming segmentation.
Remediation
Disable Profile on datasets that no longer feed active journeys, segments, or destinations. Aim for one profile-enabled dataset per schema class. Consolidating to a single dataset per class reduces the number of fragments Real-Time Customer Profile must merge on every evaluation.
When you select the Profile Dataset Count card, a detail panel opens on the right. The panel shows:
- Description: Explains that Experience Platform limits the number of datasets that can be enabled for profile to no more than 20 datasets based on the XDM Individual Profile class, and no more than 20 datasets based on the XDM ExperienceEvent class, per sandbox. This check inspects whether either guardrail has been exceeded.
- Impact: An excessive number of profile-enabled datasets impacts the performance and throughput of both batch and streaming segmentation.
- General areas of impact: Batch and streaming segmentation.
- Experience League Documentation: Links to default guardrails for Real-Time Customer Profile data and the dataset user guide.
- Recommendation: Disable Profile on datasets that no longer feed active journeys, segments, or destinations by going to Data Management > Datasets and turning off the Profile toggle. Aim for one profile-enabled dataset per schema class. Platform-managed datasets count against the limit but cannot be disabled, so focus remediation on your own datasets.
- Profile Dataset Count: The current count of profile-enabled datasets for the schema class against the limit.
