Accredited Professional Marketing-Cloud-Intelligence Reddit Questions

Typically, 'Campaign Key' is a unique identifier for a specific marketing campaign, while 'Media Buy Key' refers to the purchases of advertising space associated with that campaign. A campaign can have multiple media buys, so the relationship is many-to-one, with many media buys (Media Buy Keys) associated with a single campaign (Campaign Key).

The use of VLOOKUP formulas can increase the processing time of data streams because it requires a lookup operation for each row in the data set. When large volumes of data are involved, or when multiple VLOOKUPs are used, this can significantly impact processing time due to the complexity and computational requirements of matching and retrieving the data.

In Marketing Cloud Intelligence, when a file is uploaded as a generic dataset type and mapped accordingly, each unique combination of the mapped fields results in a separate row in the database. The file in question has been mapped with 'Day' to 'Day', 'Web_site_source' to 'Main Generic Entity Attribute 01', and 'Page Views' to 'Generic Metric 1'. The 'web_site_key' and 'web_site_name' are not mapped and thus, won't affect the row count.

Since there are 4 unique combinations of the mapped fields in the uploaded file (each day and source combination is unique), Marketing Cloud Intelligence will store 4 rows after ingestion, corresponding to each unique combination of 'Day' and 'Web_site_source'.

In Marketing Cloud Intelligence, when a field is mapped to the main entity key, other related fields should be mapped as attributes of that key if they provide additional descriptors or details. Since 'Room Number' is related to 'Meeting Code', it would be an attribute of the'Meeting Code' entity, providing additional context to the meetings without serving as a metric or a separate entity key.
