Delivering audience data to Adform

To deliver data to the AdForms apps, you use the create audiences and deliver audiences workflows. Remember to specify the appropriate AdForm app for the audience you are delivering. Audiences can contain only the type of data specified for the app you use for delivery.

When you deliver an audience, Adform receives an email notification that includes your name, campaign ID, and the category IDs being delivered. By default, Adform maps your data to the Adform segment name and reference ID (owner ID). No further mapping steps are required. If you want to manually map your category names to specific Adform segments, send a message to dmp@adform.com with the campaign ID, campaign name, category IDs, and category names before activating your Adform campaign.

Using your Oracle Data Cloud platform data in the Adform platform

After Adform maps your campaign name and ID to the Adform segment name and reference ID (owner ID), your audience is displayed in the Adform UI.

To use your Oracle Data Cloud platform data in the Adform platform:

  1. Log in to https://dmp.adform.com with your Adform credentials.
  2. Go to the Segments tab. Your segments are displayed in a list with the reference ID set to the corresponding campaign ID. The Audience column indicates the number of imported cookie IDs.

After you import your audiences, you can manage them in your Adform account however you want because the reference ID is only used for data import.
