Override external ID for Content Tracks
Do you have a specific attribution strategy where you change the campaign ID for an asset depending on the experience in which it is being used? Are you ever using a single track across your campaign to promote to multiple verticals? If so, this enhancement is for you!
You are now able to assign a ‘Campaign_id” for each content asset to ensure that respective campaign attribution is accounted for. Previously, users could only assign a campaign ID to the track external ID which did not serve either use case, as campaign membership was related to the specific asset engagement and not the other assets in the track.
With this improvement, you can override the content external id at the track level which can be then used to assign a campaign ID for each content asset.
To use this new functionality, follow these steps.
- Open a Target or Recommend Track you want to edit.
- On the left panel, click an existing External ID or select + Add External ID. Either way, a popup menu appears.
External ID edit menu - Enter the External ID you want to associate with this content. To save your additions, click Update.
If you have performed an external id override action for any contents in the track, when the webhook gets triggered the override values are passed to the respective field in your MAP . If you have added {{external_id}} field merge for external code or you’re passing this as a hidden field for custom forms the override values will get populated accordingly.
