Audience metadata configuration

When exporting data from Experience Platform to your destination, you might need specific audience metadata, like audience names or audience IDs, to be shared between Experience Platform and your destination.

Destination SDK offers tools that you can use to programmatically create, update, or delete audiences in your destination platform.

To understand where this component fits into an integration created with Destination SDK, see the diagram in the configuration options documentation or see the guide on how to use Destination SDK to configure a streaming destination.

You can configure the audience metadata template via the /authoring/audience-templates endpoint. After creating your audience metadata configuration, you can use the /authoring/destinations endpoint to configure the audienceMetadataConfig section. This section tells your destination what audience metadata it should map to your audience template.

See the following API reference pages for detailed API call examples where you can configure the components shown in this page.

IMPORTANT
All parameter names and values supported by Destination SDK are case sensitive. To avoid case sensitivity errors, please use the parameters names and values exactly as shown in the documentation.
