Generate the dataset overlap report

The dataset overlap report provides visibility into the composition of your organization鈥檚 Profile store by exposing the datasets that contribute most to your addressable audience (profiles).

In addition to providing insights into your data, this report can help you take actions to optimize your license usage, such as setting a limit to the lifespan of certain data.

This tutorial outlines the steps necessary to generate the dataset overlap report using the Real-Time Customer Profile API and interpret the results for your organization.

Getting started

In order to use 51黑料不打烊 Experience Platform APIs, you must first complete the to gather the values that you need for the required headers. To learn more about Experience Platform APIs, please refer to the getting started with Experience Platform APIs documentation.

The required headers for all of the API calls in this tutorial are:

After completing the authentication tutorial and gathering the values for the required headers, you are ready to begin making calls to the Real-Time Customer API.

Generate dataset overlap report using the command line

If you are familiar with using the command line, you can use the following cURL request to generate the dataset overlap report by performing a GET request to /previewsamplestatus/report/dataset/overlap.

Request

The following request uses the date parameter to return the most recent report for the date specified.

curl -X GET \
  https://platform.adobe.io/data/core/ups/previewsamplestatus/report/dataset/overlap?date=2021-04-19 \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer {ACCESS_TOKEN}' \
  -H 'x-api-key: {API_KEY}' \
  -H 'x-gw-ims-org-id: {ORG_ID}' \

Response

A successful request returns HTTP status 200 (OK) and the dataset overlap report. The report includes a data object, containing comma-separated lists of datasets and their respective profile count. For details on how to read the report, see the section on interpreting the dataset overlap report data later in this tutorial.

Generate dataset overlap report using Postman

Postman is a collaborative platform for API development and is useful for visualizing API calls. It can be downloaded for free from the and provides an easy to use UI for performing API calls. The following screenshots use the Postman interface.

Request

To request the dataset overlap report using Postman, complete the following steps:

After the request type, headers, values, and path are complete, select Send to send the API request and generate the report.

Response

A successful request returns HTTP status 200 (OK) and the dataset overlap report. The report includes a data object, containing comma-separated lists of datasets and their respective profile count. For details on how to read the report, see the section on interpreting the dataset overlap report data.

Interpret the dataset overlap report data interpret-the-report

The generated dataset overlap report provides a timestamp showing the date and time of the report and a data object that includes unique combinations of dataset IDs as comma-separated lists. The following sections provide additional information regarding the components of the report.

Report timestamp

The reportTimestamp matches the date provided in the API request, or if no date was provided, the timestamp of the most recent report.

List of dataset IDs

The data object includes unique combinations of dataset IDs as comma-separated lists with the respective profile count for that combination of datasets.

To interpret the results of the report, consider the following example:

  "5d92921872831c163452edc8,5da7292579975918a851db57,5eb2cdc6fa3f9a18a7592a98": 123,
  "5d92921872831c163452edc8,5eb2cdc6fa3f9a18a7592a98": 454412,
  "5eeda0032af7bb19162172a7": 107

This report provides the following information:

Next steps

After completing this tutorial, you are now able to generate the dataset overlap report using the Real-Time Customer Profile API. To learn more about working with Profile data in both the API and the Experience Platform UI, please begin by reading the Profile overview documentation.
