Discuss Salesforce Marketing Cloud Intelligence Accredited Professional (AP-215) Exam Topic 9 Question 51

An implementation engineer is requested to integrate the following files:

File A:

File B:

The client would like to link the two files in order to view the two KPIS (Tasks Completed' and 'tasks Assignmed') alongside'Employee Name' and/or 'Squard'.

A Parent-Child configuration was set between the two.

Which two statements are correct?

AThe two files cannot be Joined as they hold different measurements

BThe two files cannot be joined as they hold different dates

CThe join can be successful even if 'empjd' isn't mapped and employee.name' is mapped to the same entity name in both data streams

DAny one of the files can potentially be set as the Parent data stream

EThe two files were uploaded to a different Generic type

Suggested Answer: C, D

In Marketing Cloud Intelligence, joining two files requires a common field to be mapped as the same entity. If 'employee_name' is consistently mapped across both data streams, it can serve as the basis for the join, regardless of whether 'employee_id' is mapped. The choice of which file serves as the Parent stream depends on the use case and the desired reporting structure, but technically, either could serve as the Parent.

I'm leaning towards C and D as correct answers.

E doesn't apply here. Both files look similar.

D is interesting. Parent can be flexible, right?

Kaycee 2 months ago

C makes sense. Mapping 'employee.name' is key.

I agree, but B seems valid. Different dates could be an issue.

Tayna 2 months ago

I think A is wrong. Different measurements shouldn't matter.

This question is tricky.

B) seems off, I doubt that's a valid reason to not join.

Una 3 months ago

Wait, can they really join if the dates are different?

Telma 3 months ago

C) sounds right, mapping can be flexible like that.

Margurite 3 months ago

I think D) is true, either file can be the parent.

Eun 3 months ago

A) is definitely wrong, they can join on different measurements.

Nickolas 3 months ago

I vaguely remember that either file can be the parent, but I’m not confident about the implications of that choice.

Helga 4 months ago

I feel like the date difference could be a reason for a failed join, but I need to double-check that.

Peter 4 months ago

I think I practiced a question where the parent-child relationship was important, but I can't recall if it matters if 'empid' isn't mapped.

Ettie 4 months ago

I remember something about how different measurements can affect joins, but I'm not sure if that's the case here.
