A client has integrated data from Facebook Ads, Twitter Ads, and Google Ads in Marketing Cloud Intelligence. For each data source, the data
follows a naming convention as shown below:
Facebook Ads Naming Convention - Campaign Name:
Camp|D_CampName#Market_Objective#TargetAge_TargetGender
Twitter Ads Naming Convention - Media Buy Name:
Market|TargetAge|Objective|OrderID
' Google Ads Naming Convention - Media Buy Name:
Buying Type_Market_Objective
The client wants to harmonize their data on the common fields between these two platforms (i.e. Market and Objective) using the Harmonization 'Center.
In addition to the previous details, the client provides the following data sample:
Logic specification:
If a value is not present in the Validation List, return ''Not Valid''
If a value is not present in the Classification File, return ''Unclassified''.
If the Harmonization center is used to harmonize the above data and files, what table will show the final output?
A)
B)
C)
D)
The correct table would be Option B. The harmonization process would identify the 'Market' from the campaign or media buy name based on the delimiter and position rules specified in the naming conventions. The harmonized 'Market' would then be matched against the classification file and validation list. If a value does not match the validation list, it would return 'Not Valid', and if it's not present in the classification file, it would return 'Unclassified'. Option B is the only table showing the 'Not Valid' category which aligns with the logic specification provided.
A technical architect is provided with the logic and Opportunity file shown below:
The opportunity status logic is as follows:
For the opportunity stages ''Interest'', ''Confirmed Interest'' and ''Registered'', the status should be ''Open''.
For the opportunity stage ''Closed'', the opportunity status should be closed
Otherwise, return null for the opportunity status
Given the above file and logic and assuming that the file is mapped in a GENERIC data stream type with the following mapping:
''Day'' --- Standard ''Day'' field
''Opportunity Key'' > Main Generic Entity Key
''Opportunity Stage'' --- Main Generic Entity Attribute
''Opportunity Count'' --- Generic Custom Metric
A pivot table was created to present the count of opportunities in each stage. The pivot table is filtered on Jan 11th. What is the number of opportunities in the Interest stage?
Since the pivot table is filtered on January 11th and the provided Opportunity file does not show any records dated January 11th, there are zero opportunities in the Interest stage for that date. Salesforce Marketing Cloud Intelligence allows users to create pivot tables and filter data based on specific criteria, such as dates. In this case, the filter would exclude all rows that do not match the specified date, resulting in a count of zero for the Interest stage. This would apply to any stage since there are no records for January 11th. Reference can be made to Salesforce Marketing Cloud Intelligence documentation on filtering and pivot tables.
A client's data consists of three data sources - Facebook Ads, LinkedIn Ads and Google Campaign Manager.
Notes:
* The client is planning on adding an additional 100 Facebook Ads data streams and 50 more LinkedIn Ads data streams.
* The final volume of data in the workspace will be 5M rows
* Each data source has a naming convention and it can be assumed that any additional profile (i.e. Data Stream) from one of these sources will follow the same naming convention.
The client provided the following sample files:
Facebook Ads:
The client would like to create a new harmonization field named "Market," which will only be coming from Facebook Ads and LinkedIn Ads. The logic for
"Market" is the following:
IF Media Buy Type is equal to "TypeB" or "TypeC" or "TypeD"
Return 'Europe'
ELSE
Return 'Rest Of The World'
In order to create the harmonization field Market, the client considers using either Mapping Formula, Calculated Dimension, VLOOKUP or Patterns.
Considering maintenance and scalability, which option is recommended?
Patterns are the best approach in this scenario because:
Scalability: Patterns are highly scalable and can easily handle the addition of 100 more Facebook Ads and 50 more LinkedIn Ads streams. You can define pattern-matching rules that automatically apply to new data streams based on the naming conventions.
Flexibility and Maintenance: Patterns allow you to maintain and adjust logic easily. Since the logic for determining 'Market' is based on a defined naming convention (e.g., Media Buy Type), Patterns can handle these rules effectively without requiring manual updates or static tables.
Efficient Harmonization: Patterns automatically classify data based on defined rules, reducing the need for ongoing manual maintenance compared to approaches like VLOOKUP or Mapping Formulas, which might require frequent updates as data changes.
Why not other options?
Mapping Formulas: While Mapping Formulas work well for static mappings, they are not as scalable or maintainable when the dataset grows or changes frequently.
Calculated Dimension: This option is valid for simple logic but is less maintainable for large-scale datasets, especially when new data streams are added.
VLOOKUP: This method is manual and not scalable. It would require you to update lookup tables for each new data stream, which is inefficient given the expected growth of the data.
A client's data consists of three data streams as follows:
Data Stream A:
For the client's data consisting of three data streams, setting Data Stream A as the Parent allows for inheriting attributes and hierarchies from it to the child data streams. This ensures consistency across the data streams, making it possible to analyze the data collectively, using the structure and attributes defined in the Parent data stream.
Source 3:
Via the harmonization Center, the Client has created Patterns and applied a classification rule using source 2.
While performing QA, you have spotted that the final value of clicks for Product Group Ais 10, where it should've been i5.
How can an implementation engineer fix this discrepancy?
Case Sensitivity Issue:
The discrepancy in the 'Clicks' value for Product Group A (10 instead of 15) likely arises from a mismatch caused by case sensitivity in the classification rules. If some data entries use different capitalization (e.g., 'Product Group A' vs. 'product group a'), the system might treat them as distinct entries, leading to incorrect aggregations.
Solution:
By unchecking the 'Case Sensitive' checkbox, the harmonization process will treat entries with different capitalization as the same value. This ensures consistent classification and resolves discrepancies in aggregated metrics like 'Clicks.'
