Overview overview

Use the Moengage destination to connect and map your Adobe data (user attributes, segments and events) to MoEngage in real-time. Customers can then act on this data, delivering personalized, targeted experiences.

With Adobe, the integration is very simple and intuitive. Simply take any Adobe user profile, and map it to a MoEngage user attribute.

IMPORTANT

This destination connector and documentation page are created and maintained by the Moengage team. For any inquiries or update requests, please contact them directly at https://help.moengage.com/hc/en-us.

Use cases use-cases

A marketer wants to target a user segment (built in Adobe Experience Platform) via Moengage campaigns. Also, they want to personalize campaign content based on attributes from Adobe Experience Platform profiles. With this integration, users and attributes are updated in MoEngage as soon as segments and profiles are updated in Adobe Experience Platform.

Map attributes and identities map

To correctly send your audience data from Adobe Experience Platform to the Moengage destination, you need to go through the field mapping step.

Mapping consists of creating a link between your Experience Data Model (XDM) schema fields in your Platform account, and their corresponding equivalents from the target destination.

To correctly map your XDM fields to the Moengage destination fields, follow these steps:

In the Mapping step, select Checkbox.

Moengage Destination Add Mapping

In the Mapping step, select Add new mapping.

Moengage Destination Add Mapping

In the Source Field section, select the arrow button next to the empty field.

Moengage Destination Source Mapping

In the Select source field window, you can choose between two categories of XDM fields:

Select attributes: use this option to map a specific field from your XDM schema to Moengage attribute.

Moengage Destination Mapping Source Attribute

Choose your source field, then select Select.

In the Target Field section, select the mapping icon to the right of the field.

Moengage Destination Target Mapping

In the Select target field window, you can choose between two categories of target fields:

Select identity namespace: Use this option to map Platform identity namespaces to Moengage identity namespaces.
Select custom attributes: Use this option to map XDM attributes to custom Moengage attributes that you defined in your Moengage account.
You can also use this option to rename existing XDM attributes into Moengage. For instance, mapping a lastName XDM attribute to a custom Last_Name attribute in Moengage, will create the Last_Name attribute in Moengage, if it doesn’t already exist, and map the lastName XDM attribute to it.

Moengage Destination Target Mapping Fields

Choose your target field, then select Select.

You should now see your field mapping in the list.

Moengage Destination Mapping Complete

To add more mappings, repeat the previous steps.

Exported data / Validate data export exported-data

To verify if data has been exported successfully to the Moengage destination, go to the user profile on your Moengage account. You will see a user attribute called AEP Segment.
