Integrating with Adobe Target integrating-with-adobe-target
As part of the Adobe Marketing Cloud, Adobe Target lets you increase content relevance through targeting and measuring across all channels. Adobe Target is used by marketers to design and execute online tests, create on-the-fly audience segments (based on behavior) and automate the targeting of content and online experiences. AEM has adopted the targeting workflow that is used in Adobe Target Standard. If you use Target, you will be familiar with the targeting editing environment in AEM.
Integrate your AEM sites with Adobe Target to personalize content in your pages:
- Implement content targeting.
- Use Target audiences to create personalized experiences.
- Submit context data to Target when visitors interact with your pages.
- Track conversion rates.
To integrate with Target, perform the following tasks:
-
Perform prerequisite tasks: Register with Adobe Target and configure certain aspects of the AEM author instance. Your Adobe Target account must have **approver **level permissions at a minimum. In addition, you must secure the activity settings on the publish node so that it is inaccessible to users.
-
Either:
- Opt into Adobe Target: The opt-in wizard takes your Target account information and creates an Adobe Target cloud configuration and a Target Framework. The wizard also associates your sites with the Target Framework. If the wizard cannot connect to target, see the connection trouble shooting section. You can then Modify the default cloud configurations: If necessary, modify the cloud configuration and framework that the opt-in wizard created. For example, modify the framework to send additional context data to Target. If you want to use Adobe Analytics as a reporting source for Adobe Target, you need to modify the cloud configuration to point to the A4T configuration.
- Manually Integrate with Adobe Target.
-
Configure Activities: Associate your Activities with the Target cloud configuration.
- 3.x is configured with http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/com.day.commons.httpclient
- 4.x is configured with http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/org.apache.http.proxyconfigurator
When the integration is complete, you can author targeted content that sends visitor data to Adobe Target. Note that page components require specific code to enable content targeting. (See Developing for Targeted Content.)
