Enrichment enrichment

If enrichment was not enabled when you sourced your measurement data, you have the option to enrich your event dataset with attributes from Real‑Time Customer Profile. Note that once enrichment is turned on for measurement data, it cannot be disabled. You can still update the enrichment join keys as needed.

When you enable enrichment in the Match keys dialog, the UI expands to display more configuration options under the Enrich your event data with IDs from profiles section.

Select the Source field join key option.

In the Source field join key dialog, choose the source field, followed by Select.

Edit mapping edit-mapping

To edit an existing match key, update its associated source field and target field within the Match keys dialog. If you want to include a new match key, select Add field. This creates an empty row where you can define additional mapping between source and target fields.

{modal="regular"}

Next, select the empty source field. The Select source field dialog appears with a list of available source fields grouped under options such as Identity namespaces and Profile attributes. You can filter the list and find the desired source field with the search option.

Choose the source field that you want, followed by Select.

{modal="regular"}

In the Match keys dialog, use the dropdown menu to map the new source field to a target field. All available target fields are the match keys configured for your Collaborator account. If you don’t see the target field you need, edit your account’s match keys to add it.

Use the Apply transformation option if you want to source a non-hashed field to a hashed target field, for example, when mapping a plain text phone source field to the Hashed phone target field.

{modal="regular"}

After you finish mapping fields, review your updates and select Confirm to apply the changes.

{modal="regular"}

A confirmation dialog confirms that the match keys were updated successfully.

To delete an existing data connection, select the delete icon ( ) within an individual data connection’s workspace.

{modal="regular"}

A confirmation dialog appears. Select Delete to finish deleting the data connection.
