Decrypt Data in Adobe Analytics

Hi, 

 

For specific tracking and reporting purposes we are sending encrypted customer data as part of Adobe Campaign URL Parameter. We want to decrypt the encrypted ID in Adobe Analytics. 

 

How can we achieve that ? There is a decryption mechanism to be used in Adobe Campaign which we know how to manage, however we are not sure how we can decrypt that key in Adobe Analytics. 

 

Any help will be much appreciated.

  • as the ID is encrypted on purpose, are you sure it can be stored in a decrypted way in AA? (if yes, the classification may be the easiest solution)
  • alternative and a more complicated option for decrypting the values on the fly would be a VISTA rule (you would need to provide a method for decryption that would be applied on the AA server before the value gets saved)

@sidheshwarc5116 - Have you looked at classifications? 

If it's a standard lookup, or the string can be consistently decoded based on schema, the classification rule builder might do the trick. If the schema is variable, or a simple lookup table won't do the trick, you could use the classification importer or submit classifications programmatically.
