Creating an Adobe Magento connection

  2. Click Add Connection.
  3. A pop-up window appears. Enter "Magento" in the Search bar.
  4. Click Magento connection.
    The Adobe Magento connection page opens. You can expand or collapse the metadata fields (favorite, labels, and description) by clicking the gray chevron at the top of the page.
  5. In the metadata section you can choose whether to get email notifications when the connection runs or fails to run.
  6. Enter a name for your connection at the top of the page and Save your settings.

Configuring an Adobe Magento connection

In the side bar on the left are a number of tabs. There is a setup section and there are import goals. Goals can be activated or deactivated with the checkbox in front of the name. Multiple goals can be added by using the Add goal button at the bottom of the page. You can delete or copy goals by hovering over them and selecting the "x" or copy icon.

To make the connection work, you have to add at least one import goal, save your settings, and switch the connection on. In the goal, you specify how data from Adobe Magento should be linked and mapped to BlueConic.

Click on a goal to open its tab and see the configuration options for that goal. You can edit the name of the goal at the top of the goal configurations.

1. Link identifiers between Magento and BlueConic

In order to match Magento customers to BlueConic profiles, you must match the Magento ID to an identifier in BlueConic. 

When the import is run, each customer is matched to a BlueConic profile. If no matching profile can be found, BlueConic can create a new profile based if you explicitly allow the creation of new BlueConic profiles.

2. Import customer / sales data

See Scheduling connections for information on running the connection.

Privacy management

Connections can be added to Objectives, allowing for privacy management of the information that is being picked up. A connection will only process the profiles of visitors who have consented to at least one of the objectives that the connection is linked to.
