What is custom data objects?

Hello

What is the custom data object? Use of custom data object?

Thank you

POOJA

Hi Pooja,

The custom data objects are used to store data that can be linked to a Contact or company record and they are not part of your account or customer contact record. Custom data object records can also go by the name data cards.

Use: -.

Send emails to contacts who have tweeted about a certain subject.

Contacts of segment and filter for inclusion in an email campaign.

Kind regards

  • Cvent Feeder should send information to a Contact record or a custom data object?

    We use Cvent to organize our event series each year. The event series contains ~ 18 events each year. This will be the first year we try Cvent trough to connect the information that we collect to Cvent and push it in Eloqua? Should push us to a record of individual contact or a custom data object?

    My first inclination is to match to a contact record. My reasoning for this is that the event creates many new perspectives and we want these people to become contacts in Eloqua, so that they can be put in feed and then also synchronized in Salesforce. Our Organization has also had a very limited use of custom data objects so far, we're still learning the system, and it's so advanced capabilities of segmentation may still be beyond our capacity at the moment. My fear is that if we were to store data of Cvent in custom data objects, data objects that can be linked to a contact record because they are quite new perspectives there. On the other hand, a lot of information from the event record (beyond names, emails and addresses) is really intended for a custom data object. Any advice as to how we should do that?

    My recommendation is to use a custom data object. -Especially if you store specific information about the event.

    While I'm not 100% on the configuration of Cvent, you probably have the ability to set the default mapping that relates to the LCO to the contact table. -It is usually an email address

    Otherwise, you also have the option of specifying the parameter 'Mapping the default used in Upload' for the CDO. -Make sure it is set up properly as well. -Yet once, it is usually to address Email

    As long as they are set up correctly, the system will automatically create a new contact for you if the 'E-mail address' the participant Cvent is NOT already a contact Eloqua... More importantly, if the 'Email address' the participant Cvent is already a contact-> a new contact will NOT be created. (Instead, the existing contact will be related to multiple records LCO)... That's what you want

    This way don't unnecessarily create you more contacts than you need to.

    Once you get this sorted out, you'll be amazed how it is easy to start to use these CDO into Segments.

    Let me know if it helps.

  • Boxes and custom data objects

    I am creating a form with a list of checkboxes based on interests of customers - there are 8 in total and they can select several options.

    What I want to do is to create shared lists for each option which will serve as a member of segment for future mailings.

    I also need to store data for that person together so if I never, I can go and say ' well, Joe Bloggs here is interested in X, Y and Z, so I'll put him in the countryside, A and B'.

    Are the data objects custom the way forward? I had a go at creating and mapping it, but I don't know what to do with these boxes!

    Thank you!!

    For the shared list, simply use the step "Add to shared Contact list" of your form and make it to the condition that the box is checked. You will need 8 of these steps, one for each option.

    To preserve the data, I would like to use a custom data object. Create a new CDO set with an address field of the email and one for each of your boxes (and any other information you want, of course.) And then use the processing stage of 'Update Custom Data object - With Custom Values'. You can define this step to add a 'yes' or 'on' or whatever you want to the appropriate field in the ORDER. Yet once, make this step on the box being checked in your form. Yet once, you need to create 8 of these steps, but once you get the first fact, others should go faster.

    PS, I kept typing "from" instead of "form". Argh.

  • Can I evaluate and fill out a form with data from a custom data object?

    I'm not a developer, but I'm trying to find as much information for my web team so they can implement this for me.  We use the E10.

    I have some information for the contacts stored in a data object custom I want to use for pre-population information access door and in another form.  For example:

    1. User enters his email address into a form and hands
    2. A search and contact and custom data object (CDO)
      1. If the contact has a CDO with the required information, he fills the following form with the information
      2. If the contact does not have the required ORDER, it displays information and a link to the place where to go next

    Is it possible, and where should I direct my developers learn more about treatments?

    Hi Richard,

    You can certainly do so using data for the Eloqua Web search (Setup > data Web Look Ups). A database search allows you to request data stored in Eloqua, bring up the page and with a few JS, we determine if they will go on track 1 or 2 you described above.

    Is that an advanced feature requires knowledge of HTML and JS. Here is a good article on data search that should help:

  • Using the Eloqua.API to write to "Custom Data objects/data card Set.

    Does anyone know where there are examples for data objects programming customized via Eloqua.API, I created 2 custom data objects and you now need to write the code for these objects via the API. The examples of code that I used for the previous tasks such as create a contact, create business, update contact and company, describe the entity... I used the following link to complete the previous, above the tasks mentioned.

    http://www.eloquatrainingcenter.com/Portal/documentation/API/default.htm

    However, I don't see anything about the programming of a "Custom Data object/data card Set"

    Joey

    Hi Joey - looks like you you will first make a. Query() call using the name or the GUID personalized criteria, then the returned object, you can retrieve the Id property that will have the whole you need.

    Without this whole you will not be able to correctly map the data card.

  • What is the real purpose of the accessible property in NetworkSummary data object?

    Hello

    I have a scenario where I need to monitor the ESX Server SSH connection.

    Simple way is to ping each server and get the status of individuals against a ping response.

    I found the available property in the network summary data object.

    Documentation Centre of vSphere 5.5

    Description of it is not that much succinct to get the meaning of it is only one-way.

    Is anyone aware of the purpose of this property? It will help monitor the SSH of ESX Server connectivity. (something like how iterative checking the status of ping)

    How does it work internally? He tries a ping to an individual server to confirm connectivity?

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply.

    It is useful.

  • I need a Set accessor for custom data

    The vSphere API exposes a SetField method to handle custom fields stored in the object, but I was able to sort out how to access with the perl SDK.

    http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VC-SDK/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/Vim.CustomFieldsManager.html

    Yesterday, I was able to sort out how to access these custom data.  Details of my rather inelegant solution are found here:

    http://communities.VMware.com/message/1891199#1891199

    While it works fine, it is creating a dependency on the structure of the object's data, rather than using its published interfaces; that is fragile to changes in underlying libraries.  If anyone can point me to an object-> method() documented to do so, I would be grateful.

    But tonight my goal is to find a way to set the values of these custom fields.

    sub update_custom_data_by_name {
      my $self = shift;
      my $vm = shift;
      my $custom_field_name = shift;
      my $custom_field_new_value = shift;
    
      print 'Our value starts as: ' . Dumper $self->extract_custom_data_by_name($vm,$custom_field_name);
      my $value;
      foreach my $field ( @{$vm->get_property('availableField')} ){
        if( $custom_field_name eq $field->{'name'} ){
          my $key = $field->{'key'};
          foreach $value ( @{$vm->get_property('customValue')} ){
            # $field->setField($key,$custom_field_new_value);
            if( $value->{'key'} eq $key ){
              $value->{'value'} = $custom_field_new_value;
              print Dumper( $value );
              $vm->update_view_data();
              last;
            }
          }
        }
      }
    
      my $confirmed_field_value = $self->extract_custom_data_by_name($vm,$custom_field_name);
      return $confirmed_custom_field_value;
    }
    

    Commented the call to-> setField died as planned to call an undefined method.  While it is defined in the underlying API, it is not exposed by the perl bindings.

    The Dumper() call in the second nested condition shows me the value I'm looking for.  While I have this practical value, I so go ahead and -> update_view_data() before leaving the scope.  However, after the bombing of this loop, pulling this value (using the new method from last night to this effect), me gives UNDEF, so I know I'm an impact, even if not update its value I intend.

    My output looks in part like this:
    
    Our value starts as: $VAR1 = 'DEV';
    $VAR1 = bless( {
                     'key' => '10006',
                     'value' => 'Staging.Refurbish'
                   }, 'CustomFieldStringValue' );
    Our updated custom value is now: $VAR1 = undef;
    

    Can someone please tell what it is that I'm missing here?

  • How to change data objects and update the corresponding task and task forms?

    Hi all

    I modified this thread because I found that I had many questions to ask.

    1.
    I'm quite new to OBPM and would like to know how to change data - for clarity objects add a new attribute "Dependents of the Client" "Customer care" - and therefore update the task that uses the 'customer information' what makes via data binding - I get an error message here - or via the data about the data Task-The chosen tab it does not appear to be linked to my approach in some sort.

    2.
    Will be the task form that I generated earlier in < 1 > update automatically? Is it possible to update manually if the task has been clearly customized?

    3.
    What are the objects of project data? They do not store values in my process. They are for the arguments only - like reusable process?

    Thanks in advance,

    Kind regards

    Yanis

    Hi Yanius,

    (1) assume that you start from scratch. First, you declare your data object structure. To do this, you must go to the BPM project Naviagtor, right-click on 'Catalogue of trades' and create a new Module. Then you can right click on the module you created and select the new object of trade. Add all the attributes you need. It is the same to declare a class in Java. Second, you must declare a variable of the type process you have created: select the process, go to the Structure display (if you don't go and activate it in menu view Jdev-> Structure). Right click on the Process data object and create your variable. It's like setting a variable in Java. In short, answering your question, make the path opposite: find in your process of type "Customer Details", then go to your catalog Business, right click and change the definition to add what you need.

    (2) the human task will not update automatically (annoying). If you change the object itself, so you don't need to change your mappings because actually there the same object you are through the task as in / out argument. There are two things here: the human task and form associated with it (where probably change you the subject i.e. customer details). Go to the form (.jspx) - click on the tab links (by default, you are in the Design). In the links page, there is a link on top: "Page Définition File" (something like proj/pageDef/...xml). Open the XML file and go to the source. There you can add manually now all the attributes you need and that were not available before (i.e. dependent Client). It's a little complicated, but at least you don't have to recreate it. particularly useful if you have already implemented and subsequently form, you need to add more things (business is very good to say otherwise, "I would like to see something else in the form" ;)

    (3) project data objects are visible by all processes that you have in the project rather than the object of process data that are visible only to the method where you set the variable to. This means that you declare an object of data of the project once and then it will be available to all processes. Keep in mind that each process has a copy of it. In other words, it is not like a global variable that everyone sees. If edit you in a single process, other processes will not see the new value.

    I hope that I have answered your questions.
    See you soon,.

  • Output of mapping a custom BPM object DB adapter

    Hello
    I'm trying to map a set of my Adapater DB to a custom BPM object. My DB adapter contains a sql select statement that returns multiple order records. I want this card to my "orders" defined in the BPM project. I saw the new transformation Editor, but I don't know what choice do the mapping.

    Thank you.

    If you select "Use the Transformations" as type of data binding, which will have you use/create a xsl to do the transformation. In the Visual editor for XSL JDev, if you drag the type returned to your type I think we need to create a and create maps of specific fields.

  • Binds the data object graph, causing memory

    Hello

    I want to create a WPF application that uses Measurement Studio to display the data points on the graph.

    We have already implemented a HAL, the data in the reports of the UI (after a few manipulations), using the DAQmx.

    I saw in your examples you display only the last second points, but my users can choose to see the data in an hour, and if I continue in the data memory of the points for the last hour I get out of memory (the data object become very big).

    How can I display in the chart of the data of the last X minutes / hours without keeping all the data in memory?

    Sorry, it was my fault (the years were defective in my local test as well, just, I had not noticed). Fortunately, what makes the solution even simpler: the CustomXAxis implementation can change just object ISourceDataProvider.TryGetSourceDataStart() { return default(DateTime); } .

    Also, for future reference: to the changes of the properties in WPF, you must be a dependency property or INotifyPropertyChanged , but not both (i.e. didn't need you OnStartTimePropertyChanged in CustomXAxis ).

  • Where to define new custom data types?

    Hello

    In the past (TS 3.5) I created our own range of custom type file that has been used

    to store the new data types and then referred the case to other colleagues. The file would be

    stored in the ...\Program Files\...\User area.

    My question arose because we now use the TS 4.1/4.2, which is no longer a separate

    Directories of NOR and user in \Program Files.

    Because now I want to change an existing custom data type, I find that our range of custom type has

    fallen by the way side, forgotten.

    Even though I can see the custom data definitions within the sequence of type files that use

    custom data types, which means that I can edit them locally, I intend to return to

    a range of custom type, i.e. comprehensive definition.

    What is the relationship between the definitions in a range of custom type and custom data

    definitions of type of a file of sequence?

    When a palette to update file a file of sequence?, who takes over in the event of conflicts?

    is a really necessary sequence files palette file if they are separated by using the same custom data type

    can update the other? What is good practice when defining custom types of data?

    Thank you

    Gary.

    Hey guys,.

    This is a very interesting thread, and I've got everything right, in heart, with advice given so far. I just wanted to offer some additional tips on the conflicts of kind - with more response, the initial question concerning the definition of what is priority in case of conflict.

    It is important to note that TestStand uses type names and version numbers to identify the different types. It is also important to note that when you use a definition of type of customers within a sequence, the sequence (.seq) file containing the sequence will keep a copy of the type definition. This greatly facilitates distributed sequence files. However, it also opens the door to potential conflicts type.

    TestStand allows only one type of unique name to be loaded into memory at any given time, so that it uses the number of versions of the type to try to resolve these conflicts automatically. For example, TestStand can be configured to load any type is the largest version number (note that this can be changed via the tab Preferences dialog box Options of Station).

    All this information and more are found in the following tutorials...

  • What is an xnode object?

    Okay silly question, but what is an xnode object? I saw them mentioned and I know they have something to do with the scripts. The LabVIEW help search gave nothing of what has been very helpful.

    I was playing with these guys a little bit lately and will offer a few thoughts, I won.  XNode is roughly the equivalent of an XControl comics.  It is organized like a normal library, and a .xnode file is basically XML as a file .lvlib.

    XNodes have some of the "capabilities" that you control by writing ability live.  They range from the drawing of the image, to specify the terminals to generate the actual code.  There is a lot of flexibility, you can adapt for wire types, resize nodes horizontally and vertically, to have configuration screens, text fields.  The downside is that there are a lot of luggage, IE. all these screws capacity should be around, so a simple VI with a unique XNode may require dozens of subVIs.  No problem when they come with LV, a bit of a brake to home built ones.

    I've been a promoter of the end regarding XNodes and I'll soon (I hope) to release my XNode assistant on the community.  It deals with the creation of XNodes and add capacity VIs and SubVIs.  It also simplifies the process for most of the core capabilities.  My favorite part is that it eliminates scripting in many cases.  You write a VI model, use my tool to the terminals of the tag on the comic book by clicking on an image and then simply generate a list of rules of XNode wiring lugs on the terminals of the BD.  I also have simple tools to bundle/unbundle inputs/outputs for expandable nodes very popular.

    The old claim was XNodes would be too complex and not the type of the 'customer experience' that LV users want.  I intend to prove them wrong, stay tuned.  Once, they said similar things about scripts...

    In the meantime, let me know if you can make sense of this

  • Binds a shared variable to a NOR-PSP data object does not work

    Hello

    I want to share data between a RT-target and one or several hosts (LV 8.6.1). Shared network variables are deployed to the target RT.  According to NOR to access shared another project or host variables must be done by defining a variable shared on the host computer and the aliasing they NEITHER-PSP data object on the target.

    I did and the shared host variable was an error (0x8BBB0011) during execution.

    Next I have an alias to a shared variable, deployed on the host to another project. It worked.

    Another thing I tried was to bind the variable of the RT-target to a display element:

    This works! And as you can see that the path of the NOR-PSP data object is exactly the same thing! So, what is the difference between linking a data object to a shared variable and a display element?

    Is there a bug in the EVS, or am I missing something here?

    In your renderer, in the service of replacement data, set the listener here:

    deleteIcon.addEventListener ("click", value.callback);

    Not sure why in this function you set only the part of the data in your data object. I suppose that you are unwilling to extend the reminder.
