Syncing data
Profile lists
Syncing to Responsys profile lists lets you create base profiles. Base profiles primarily contain user IDs to associate the user to records in profile extension tables.
Record matching
You can match rows in your model with users in Responsys on the following fields:
- Mobile number
- Customer ID
- Responsys ID (RIID)
- MD5 Hashed Email
- SHA256 Hashed Email
Hashed emails can't be used for upsert operations.
Field mapping
You can map additional user information such as other identifiers, country, address, or other user-created fields.
Profile Extension Tables
Syncing to profile extension tables lets you attach additional information to base user profiles. Profile extension tables (PETs) give you a way to store additional attributes that define behavioral, demographic or profile preference characteristics of your contacts. Using PETs helps you organize information about your contacts in a way that is most efficient for your queries and data imports.
