The Adobe Experience Platform Edge extension can send events that follow a previously defined XDM schema to Adobe Experience Edge Network. This extension automatically adds Identity information to each Experience event as described in this document.
{% hint style="info" %}
This extension provides public APIs to build XDM Experience events; these events should not be confused with the events that are built by using the Mobile Core extension, as they are built based on XDM schemas.
{% endhint %}
An XDM Experience event has the following structure:
| Data | Description |
|---|---|
| Timestamp | (Required) The auto populated timestamp when the Experience Platform event is sent to the AEP Edge mobile extension. |
| Event ID | (Required) Unique event identifier that is auto generated by the SDK. |
| Event type | (Required) The event type, for example commerce:orderDetails. Refer to xdm:eventType Known Values for more examples. |
| XDM data | (Required) Data following the XDM schema that is defined in the Schema Editor. |
| Data | (Optional) The JSON-formatted, free-form data that can be associated with an event. |
| Dataset ID | (Optional) Using the AEP Edge extension, you can send data to multiple datasets based on your needs and configuration in Adobe Experience Platform. When sending an experience event and providing a dataset identifier, this identifier is used for redirecting the data to the specified AEP dataset instead of the default dataset set in the datastream configuration. |
Here are the identity properties the AEP Edge mobile extension automatically adds to each Experience event:
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| ECID | The Experience Cloud Identifier (ECID) that is generated by the Adobe Experiece Platform Mobile SDK is added to the Experience event's XDM IdentityMap . |
Implementation details are automatically collected by the Edge Network extension and are sent with every Experience Event. The implementation details format is defined in XDM.
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| Version | The version string is a concatenation of the AEP Mobile Core extension version plus the Edge Network extension version. For example, 3.3.2+1.2.0. |
| Name | The name is a unique URI identifier for the AEP Mobile SDK on each supported platform. For example, https://ns.adobe.com/experience/mobilesdk/ios for the Mobile SDK on iOS, or https://ns.adobe.com/experience/mobilesdk/android/reactnative for the Mobile SDK on Android using the React Native wrapper. |
| Environment | For a mobile application the environment is always app. |
If you would like to include this information in your dataset, add the "Implementation Details" field group to the schema tied to your dataset.
