Match keys help collaborators work together by enabling accurate and privacy-centric data synchronization, allowing for more precise audience targeting and measurement. Match keys selected during account setup will determine which match keys are available in future connections. They are also used to map fields from your data connection to the target fields in Collaboration when sourcing audiences.

Select any match keys that you want to use when reconciling audience profiles. Plan for the future and include any match keys you can work with and anticipate using in future campaigns. If you do need to select additional match keys for your account at a later time, you can do so in the edit account workflow. However, any match keys added after the initial setup will not be available for use in existing connections.
