AudienceStore Connector Setup Guide
With the AudienceStore Connector, you can send visitor profile data to Tealium’s Amazon S3 bucket. A visitor profile contains data pertinent to the visitor and their visit (excluding events), typically captured by the Tealium Collect Tag. Rather than exporting one visitor profile at a time, the AudienceStore connector selects visitor profiles that share common behaviors to send to AudienceStore.
The AudienceStore connector has two actions that allow you to specify the data to export and when to trigger the export. Data is compressed in log files and uploaded to the audiences folder in the S3 bucket ONLY after the data reaches 100 MB in size or 1 hour passes (whichever happens first). By default, data is stored as JSON key-value pairs. In S3, you can download the data and analyze it using the business intelligence tool of your choice.
Requirements
- AudienceStore must be enabled for your account. Contact your Telium Account Manager for more information.
- Your account must have active audiences. For more information, see Building an Audience.
