This video provides users of Adobe Target a nice option if you want to use an Adobe Analytics Calculated Metric as a custom goal. Bonus tip: Passing pageName to Adobe Target mboxes is a very helpful utility for many reasons!
okay so i got another very cool question
that was uh that came our way this
morning um
so this uh friend of ours uh is looking
to do an auto allocate test which if
you’re unfamiliar with it i would check
it out it’s a really cool utility to
have adobe target automatically shift
traffic to the better performing
experience
it has algorithms to determine when it
reaches confidence to make those
allocations
but it’s a wonderful wonderful tool to
use especially for
short-term marketing initiatives so this
particular client needed to have the
goal
what the models focus on
for the optimization
to be based off of a calculated metric
from adobe analytics
unfortunately calculated metrics
apparently are not supported i didn’t
know that until today
and they didn’t have a particular
regular metric available
so what we did here is the the work
environment was actually pretty
straightforward the calculated metric
was based off of the adobe analytics
page name and so what we ended up doing
or ended up recommending to them
um
they passed adobe target which
as a best practice as a big tip you
should absolutely do this pass your page
name your passing to adobe target
or passing to adobe analytics pass it to
adobe target as well very easy to do and
it’s very helpful for lots of different
scenarios this particular environment is
a single page application so you
couldn’t use the url uh page name was
perfect absolutely perfect to use here
so these these folks were using page
name
and so what we did is to accomplish this
instead of using adobe analytics metric
is the primary goal we switched it to an
adobe target metric so while a4 t’s
awesome in so many ways one of the
coolest things that it does is it allows
you to bring in an adobe target um
conversion event that shows up as
activity conversions but for this case
we just simply
selected uh viewed an inbox and then
target global inbox right because we got
a global inbox that fires on all the
different views
and that way we could add in
audience targeting and so this audience
targeting is going to be made up of a
simple rule um
like this i’ll actually do this here so
let me add in a targeting condition so
we can create an audience and it would
be
we would use custom
and it would be you could you can narrow
this down but we can do
page
there it is page name
contains and they enter in those three
values that was going to be the
calculated metric in adobe analytics so
once they enter that in let me just
cancel out of this
then they can have this be the primary
goal for the auto allocation so adobe
target will automatically shift new
visitors to the better performing
experiences that was there so cool
question cool work around because of
this uh adobe target
uh conversion event that’s included with
a for t
Here we address a measure slack question regarding how the mbox3rdPartyId is stitched to Activities, and Adobe Target will always show each mbox3rdPartyId their original assignment.
okay so this question
showed up on measure slack and for those
of you not familiar with measure slack
sign up for it it’s a it’s an incredible
resource
a great slack community
with all sorts of interesting topics in
the analytics testing data science you
know data visualization as you can see
here lots of
channels and uh what’s nice is you can
search it and stuff
they don’t uh
you don’t have content that’s that’s
deleted it’s got special permissions too
from the slack sponsor to allow all the
content to be stored so highly recommend
that but uh this was a a question deep
question i thought i put together a
video then rather typing response
usually sometimes chime in
to adobe target related
uh questions on here uh but this user
has a question about adobe target using
the inbox third party id which if you’re
not doing that you absolutely should do
that so the situation here is um
it’s often used to stitch activities
together so if you pass the unbox third
party id which is your id to adobe
target it prioritizes your id over adobe
target it’s a wonderful feature
um and so if you log in on one device or
another device what have you all of your
profile data which means all of your
adobe target activity data will
will go over to the new device so you if
you’re an experienced b and in a certain
test you’ll get experience beyond the
other tests so
really really powerful in that regard so
the question is that it was working
great uh but the test experience is no
longer triggered for most of our test
accounts so something seems to have gone
wrong
this has happened with one of the mia
provo customers just recently so i’ll
jump and explain what happened and how
it works so
uh i’ve got two activities here uh unbox
third party a and third party b so these
are two
distinct individual activities so if you
i’ll just use mia provo
use this chrome extension that we built
it’s free for the target community to
look at the ids so here
here we have the id so this is actually
based off of an id service that we use
it’s a unique id per device
so we’re passing this device id so if i
were to log in on different devices i
would have this id as well
now if i get into a certain activity
let’s say i turn in i turn on activity a
so i get into activity a within here so
if i come back to here
respond refresh my page
you can see i play with adobe target a
lot i get into i set up a lot of
activities there i am i’m in group a so
that id
in fact all three of these ids
now uh have me associated with that
particular id
now if i clear my cookies and clear my
cookies and clear my cookies i will
always get
this activity a within experience b as
part of this test
there’s nothing i can do i am like as
long as i’m going to have this id which
is typically a server-side id i’m going
to continue to always get this
particular activity now the slack user
that had the questions like we’re no
longer getting this
um
what what the issue is is when that idea
is seen so we want to make sure so if i
were to like let’s say log out and
here’s an example uh as well so um
i’m
let’s say a test is running here i don’t
even know oh looks like they are using
adobe target ironically um
so
you you get a signed experience here
let’s say it’s a test that spans the
insecure and secure space but then once
you log in
the the third party id is going to be
seen again
and that’s going to put you back to the
original test experiences
so if the id is no longer available when
the request is being made so when you
can see here on page load this id is
being passed
that’ll do it that’ll put you a random
if you’re if you’re i don’t have cookies
that’ll put you in a potentially
different experience here
the other situation that i’ve seen is
i’m in activity a but if i were to turn
on activity b um or stop this activity
and create a copy of it that releases me
so that that id that i have within here
um
is tied with with that particular
activity a
but if i stop a and put turn on b or the
different activity or create a copy of
it
the id is then d stitch it’s removed and
i’ve got an equal opportunity to get
different experiences so
long story short
it’s either a new activity and you’ve
been assigned a different experience
or the ids the test ideas that you were
using
were allocated to a different experience
if that makes sense hopefully this is
clear but please hit me up
add a comment or email me
if it’s not clear but that should do the
trick
MiaProva built this free utility to allow organizations to quickly and easily upload data to Adobe Target for targeting and personalization services. This video also explains how Adobe Target enables users to use the visitor ID Adobe Target provides and how to leverage your own internal definition of the visitor ID.
Adobe Target allows you to target audiences that are not in other tests. But what happens if two activities are running at the exact location? What will Target do?
This video answers that and explains how you can manage things differently.
Over the years, we have gotten many requests from customers asking for clarity around how best to use Adobe Target Audiences and Locations when setting up Activities via the Visual Experience Composer (VEC) or Form-based creation.
This video will share best practices and explain how best to leverage the functionality.
we put together this quick video to
hopefully help
some confusion out there and to share
some best practices and in ways to can
think about test locations and audiences
and how they play out when setting up a
test and adobe target whether using a
visual editor
or a form-based activity
so let me jump in here and show you uh
what’s going on here so i’m creating an
activity i’m going to use the visual
editor so here you supply the url this
is the location this is where you want
the test to execute we’re not thinking
about
using the target profile or anything
like that like you know for repeat
customers or people coming from google
or anything like that this is where the
test is running the location so i’m
going to enter in the url there
so the visual editor is loading and
doing its thing
so i’m clicking on the gear here and
then i’m going to apply page delivery
let’s say we want to expand on that
location
to apply to run on the mia provo blog
so i’ve got lots of options here to
expand on this location and and this is
the first part of the confusion uh
between
locations and audiences that we get
questions on
so
we’re limited here in terms of a list
there’s nothing to do with
people from texas or geographic data
it’s limited to location based which it
should it makes sense to do that let’s
say
i wanted to update this to go on the
blog i can do
or url
contains
www.miaprobot.com
blog cool so now whatever i do in the
visual composer will be applied here
uh on our homepage as well as here i can
also make sure i can use path i could do
you know things
that make sense for locations where
specifically
is the test running so i’ll just save
this update here
so within this section it’s best to
think of it at this experience stage is
not so much who’s going to become a
member of test but rather where the test
is running
you’ll notice there’s a component here
for audiences
i’m going to come back to this i think
this would be better served under the
targeting but i’m going to come back to
this in just a second here let me go
back into another window here and
i’m going to go ahead and create a form
based activity so create an a b test
come here i’m going to select form uh
properties uh is a whole other component
it is very it’s part of locations again
this whole first step whether this
visual editor where you put a url is
location
form is also location because properties
are defined uh you know based off of
where the organization uh defines the
properties and they’re based off of urls
or where the unbox calls are coming from
so now you’ll notice here in the form
target global emma so choose my inbox
now if you notice like in the visual
editor i supplied a url i told adobe
target this is where the test is running
but if i apply code in here i go ahead
and i create an offer and or pick an
offer
it’s a global inbox so it’s gonna that
offer is gonna fire and adobe rightly so
i was like whoa you should you should
refine and limit the scope
uh specifically limit where the code the
offer is going to fire the visual editor
absorbs this information automatically
and so
the test by default will only fire uh in
supply code based off of the url but the
refinements here
are audience refinements so in the
visual editor if you notice it’s it’s
based off of you get
uh
you get url per you know path domain
that sort of thing so here you could go
ahead and create an audience based off
of anything
browser operating system geo targeting
stuff that speaks to the the audience
that the the visitors that you want in
um yes there’s overlap i could go in
here and i could do site page uh current
page
url
due to do
contains
you know forward slash block cool okay
so
you’re able to accomplish that but
because you’re being exposed to
visitor stuff right um it’s creating
some some confusion so
even though you can create all of these
other different things based off of
these attributes
at this particular state please uh
consider you know think of this as the
scope of where you want the test to run
when it comes to audience members leave
that through here you can create
audiences you can use all the rich data
you’d like you can combine multiple
audiences
this is something very cool uh you’re
not able to do it in the audience
section although there’s a pretty big
update coming there which might enable
this um
but you think about it this day in the
targeting who
not where who experiences is is is the
where and and the same thing goes for
the visual editor use the
think of this as who’s going to become
members of this test
uh so
that makes sense so uh
here on the experience tab i said i’d
come back to this i’ll do this for both
so on the left here this is form base
okay
so you’ll notice here in the form base
audiences single and multiple
okay which i think is i think this needs
to be moved over to here as well but
they’re actually it makes sense for here
but let’s say i select multiple
audiences here
so i’ve got this odd i’m now
within i’m going to add an experience b
experience c
i’ll add in uh an audience let me just
create one here i’m going to say
chicago
add
rule geo
i’m not a big fan you know yeah i could
select city but
to me
companies are better to use dma you’re
going to get a wider a wider net in
terms of audiences so i’m a big fan of
dma but you can use city there
so wait for this to show up here in just
a second i’m just a shortcut
whenever i create an audience i like to
just create copies of all the ones i’m
going to use for the test
to do so dma i’m going to do this i’m
going to change this to san francisco
okay so yeah this is a much wider net
san francisco oakland san jose okay so
i’ll enter this to the dma
save okay cool so first test i want to
select
chicago so there’s my audience for
chicago i’m actually going to get delete
this i’ll stick with just an a and b so
chicago
i’m going to add in san francisco so
what this enables you to do
we still have the location specific i’m
actually going to update this because
because we need to do this so i’m going
to do
home page hopefully i have that in there
home
nope i don’t let me get out of there so
let me create the homepage big fan of
homepage is path
equals
that uh that allows it doesn’t create an
equal you don’t have to worry about
issues with contains uh or you know
lots lots of companies have had issues
not doing this this is an awesome uh
approach so i’m gonna do a current page
path
to do uh not contains we’re gonna use
equals here equals this so someone comes
in from paid search or something where
there’s utm or tracking parameters
you’ll still be members of this test
this limits the scope uh but this does
not uh if you’ve got lower environments
with different subdomains you’d want to
update that information
so here again
location
here is
audiences so basically if you get
experience a you can have an offer for
chicago and an offer for san francisco
for down here and i’ll and i’ll show you
an example of that
same thing applies within here so again
think of this section as
location where the test is running but
you do have the ability to add multiple
audiences with it within here same thing
as i did here so i’m going to change the
audience
i’m going to choose chicago done
and then i’ll add in san francisco
and here’s an example of how this comes
together
let’s say you’re united airlines i’m a
big united fan here um approaching a
million miler hopefully in the next year
or two
um but let’s say united wanted to run an
a b test where the control was the same
but let’s say they wanted to
highlight a new route for
uh people from from chicago here i i
typed this up so
multiple audience examples united wants
to run a test to visitors in chicago and
san francisco promoting new routes sfo
to ogg ogg is maui in hawaii and ord is
o’hare in chicago and ogg so
how the multiple audiences works is we
in the uh experiences we define the
location
but then we can also add in different
audiences like this and so the test
would look like this chicago you can
have a chicago imagery with text
promoting oh uh ord ogg
uh in san francisco the same thing so
that that’s kind of where that comes
together within adobe uh target within
here so hopefully that makes sense uh
like i said it was a big customer today
set up some tests and had it was a
little screwed up so i had enough
thought i’d make a quick video uh if you
like this and like others or got other
ideas for content to be helpful please
add it to the comments thank you

Spoiler Alert: If you don’t want to know today’s Wordle answer or how to access the solution without playing, please do not watch the video below.
Local Storage
Most websites widely use local Storage to store and access data. This data doesn’t expire like cookies and can hold considerably more data than cookies. Because of this, it is no surprise that there can be rich data to arm a testing and personalization engine like Adobe Target.
This video shows how easy it is to get data from Local Storage and make it available to Adobe Target for first impression targeting.
Code used to grab the Wordle solution from Local Storage to Adobe Target:
function targetPageParams() {
var str = window.localStorage.getItem("gameState");
var parsed = JSON.parse(str);
var solution = parsed.solution;
return ("solution=" + solution);
}
This week, we had a client reach out to us with an interesting use case with one of their Activities in Adobe Target.
The Activity was a test in their cart targeted to visitors who were making their third visit to that location. Adobe Target profiles easily support targeting such an audience but the Analysts needed to only count purchases if they happened during the same session as that third visit.
This video highlights how you can use Adobe Target ‘events’ and data like Profile Attributes as Activity Goals and still have the data in Adobe Analytics via A4T.
hello so i’ve got a pretty cool use case
here a client of ours was asking us
about a specific situation a specific
business requirement and how to approach
it
so it’s like oh wow this is a wonderful
example of activity conversions
which we we get a lot of questions about
and and so here here’s a really cool use
case let me outline it for you so
the requirement is to create an audience
that starts incrementing visits
to the cart starting today so it’s brand
new audience it’s it’s not something we
we can bring in legacy visits to from
adobe analytics and share to the
experience cloud and i should have
prefaced this is for a test that they
want to run via adobe target
on the third visit to the cart they need
to show a promo code but only on the
third visit
fourth fifth sixth whatever other visit
only the third visit is to get this
particular promo code i think there is
some data behind the decision for the
third visit
but that wasn’t shared with me so
they also want to only count purchases
made from those visitors when their
virtual was made during that third visit
to the cart if someone came to the cart
on their third visit
adobe target would
put them and show them the promo code
these these folks big users of of a for
t
um they don’t want to see and use the
purchase event in in analytics because
it wouldn’t have the definition
associated from adobe target in terms of
the third visit
so the fourth requirement is to get this
data to get this success event into
adobe
analytics so they can do deeper analyses
apply their segmentation and all the
rich stuff that they do within that
particular world
so this is very doable this is a
wonderful example of taking a success
event from adobe target and giving it
over to adobe analytics to do the deep
diving so first things first in order to
uh
to create this required we’re going to
use the target profile
a wonderful little tool it’s the cdp
before cdp’s were a thing
so
we go into adobe target uh we go under
audiences and i went ahead and i created
this particular script already
so there it is cart visit to anonymize
the company i change the domain
but essentially what happens is anytime
this
url is seen it’s going to grab the
session value which is a
adobe manages it and compares it against
the the last one which is nice it’s a
wonderful way to increment visits
and so this this works good this handles
uh requirement one creating an audience
from from day x
uh based off of certain behaviors
so now we’ll go about kind of creating
this test i’ll go ahead and create this
test in target just to show you how this
all kind of comes together so
come over to here let’s just do an a b
test i’ll use form to be quick
to do next
so let’s just use target global mbox
now what i want to do is i want to limit
this to the cart so let’s uh
the cart but also uh the the third visit
i can combine it the next step but as a
best practice you should you should
location specific stuff here targeting
is more audience related even though the
cart page
is audience and uh but it’s better to
think this let me just rename this
card uh activity
conversions
demo
so we’re going to come in here add in
audience requirements let me just create
a
car page
site pages current page
url
a lot of companies are passing uh adobe
analytics page names it’s a wonderful
best practice i would encourage that
you’d be able to can use that definition
under custom and be able to use that as
an inbox parameter but this for demo
purposes let’s say that’s the cart page
boom cart page has been added okay i’ll
leave that i’m not going to sign an
offer but this would be the promo code
for people that come on their third
visit you can add in multiple
experiences what have you
next uh this would be your
cart visit behavior so what we want to
do is create audience so this will be
third visit to cart
target definition of visit since it’s
becoming from the target profile
okay we’ll go to visit a profile because
it’s a visitor profile attribute and we
will change this to cart visit not
contains
we’re going to do equals and i have it
the profile script it’s not going to be
3.0 it’s going to be 3 exactly 3.
and so this will make sure that this
didn’t get
will not show the promo code to people
who have visits greater than three or
less than three
so boom
first the location of the experience the
audience of the experience next i’m come
over here
and then you’ll remember the a for t was
a requirement so we’re going to choose
analytics
you will choose our
report suite in adobe analytics okay so
now
this is where
we’re satisfying this requirement okay
keep in mind they they
we we want to only count conversions
that happen
when it was happened during
the visitors
third visit to the cart so the same
session of that third cart visit here’s
how we’ll do this
so go back to target
so what we want to do
if i were to choose analytics metrics
you certainly want that would work but
they wouldn’t satisfy this case
for those companies that are using
heavy users of a4t this is kind of
this is helpful to see reporting in
adobe and adobe target
but you get a bonus metric this
conversion is adobe target data so i can
suit view to page which is nice i can
put the order thank you page but that
wouldn’t satisfy the requirement for the
third visit um and there’s nothing here
to kind of help me refine that
um
clicked in mbox this is a wonderful tool
um very popular for um
for visual editor uh driven campaigns uh
but for this case i’m gonna use target
global mbox i’m gonna do target global
inbox
now i’m gonna add in a requirement add
in audience targeting so what i’m going
to do here
is create a condition
that say only count conversions
uh on that third visit to the card so
first thing i need to do is i got to
create like an order thank you page
order think you page do to do
again we would you
friendly little tip here
pass the analytics page name to the
target global inbox that would be
available here let’s just do this
current page
url
contains
let’s just say
thank you dot html
it’s not a real page
for demo okay so i created the order
thank you page
so now what i’m going to do is combine
multiple audiences i’m going to combine
the order thank you page
i’m going to combine the third visit to
the cart
so and then i’ll save this
i’ll select it and hit done
so now this success event let me uh let
me rename this it won’t matter for
analysis just say
purchase on third card visit
oh running out of characters
cart
visit okay
so now um this is like this bonus
success event so i’m gonna simply hit
save and close
i’m not going to turn this on because uh
actually
no i’m not i actually don’t have offer
so i could turn it on um
so i could turn on no harm because
there’s just default content it’ll just
show
uh
so now the activity is live
and so within the reporting it’s a for t
so it’ll take a while to show data
within here i don’t think it’ll be yeah
so it’s not available just yet
but to
let’s just call this
a test within so this now we’re into
analytics
so organizations will have all of their
metrics and all that wonderful stuff as
well
but to get this metric this goal that we
configured here
this is an adobe target driven goal it
would show up in analytics workspace as
activity conversions
and this is applicable to any of your
activities that are running an adobe
target
now you can’t simply just drag over
activity conversions and call it a day
you’ve got to come into here and you’ve
got to adjust the attribution model you
have to change this to same touch
same touch and hit apply
boom you’re done
so what this organization will now be
able to do
is exactly what they wanted
to be able to see in adobe analytics
a success event based off an adobe
target definition of a success event so
really freaking cool wonderful way for
adobe target and adobe analytics to work
together server-side to pass that
information along so
And screenshots of the “Primary Goal Configuration” to automate the flow of this data into Analytics:
One of our customers here at MiaProva is expanding their testing efforts and use of Adobe Target well beyond their www and mobile site. They are bringing Adobe Target to their Email Platform, and we are helping them do so.
The magic that is making this possible is Adobe Target’s Delivery API. You have to call Adobe Target before emails get sent because you can’t put mboxes or Adobe Target server calls in email. The Delivery API does precisely this. It calls Adobe Target with data, just as a client-side mbox does on the site, and it gets a response based on any Activities and Audiences configured in Adobe Target.
Host Groups
The challenge this organization is dealing with was permissions within Adobe Target. The team developing this incredible capability for email testing with Adobe Target didn’t have the necessary Approver rights. Given they were new to Target and this organization has hundreds of live activities in place, handing out Approver rights wasn’t an initial option.
Host Groups was the fix, and after talking to a few other companies today, I realized a video might be helpful to the Target community, so here you go:
okay so this is hopefully a quick video regarding adobe target host groups environments we are helping a big mia provo customer put testing as part of their email service so what they’re doing is actually quite fascinating and it’s awesome and this is a company that makes heavy use of adobe target across their public www properties and a really rich personalization program and they got really cool tools to manage their personalization program at mia prova but this team wanted to incorporate every target to do testing within their email platform and so what i’m going to go over now is something that team wasn’t familiar with they didn’t know about that option and i had several meetings with other adobe target customers today and was asking them as if they knew about this as well and it wasn’t something that was well understood so i said hey i’ll put together a quick video so every time adobe target gets called every time server side client side there’s something called the host group that gets passed along so you guys are probably all familiar with mbox parameters and profile parameters those lovely things you’re seeing them through the mia provo chrome extension here wonderful things that get automatically passed to adobe target client site or server side but there’s another thing that gets passed along so i’m going to copy doo doo doo doo it’s very it’s a lot easier to see this within here so i’m going to copy the mbox request or the adobe target server side request here copy is it a curl i’ll jump over to my lovely visual studio code and so this is what it looks like but the client side actually came from me at provo.com because it actually came from our home page so it’s it’s not something you can fake here or change here wherever the mbox or the adobe target server call came from is the host that gets passed along to adobe target but i’m going to go ahead and switch this to mia franklin franklin’s my dog who is sitting here next to me here so i’m going to generate a server call to adobe target by basically taking this data passing it over to adobe target but i want to show you something here in terms of like the the host groups so i’m just going to go to host groups here in brian so you can see brian and let me type in franklin so you know that that isn’t in here so what you will all see in this host group column is every single domain that adobe target made a request from in your account so you can see it’s empty and i wanted to show you just how quick this is so jumping back to a visual studio code i’m going to mimic the request boom so this is the response or response from adobe target you can see i have a lot of things going on here so i’ve got as you see on my home page lots of activities i demo help debug and show off a lot of things here so the response that you see here is just that all of the different activities the offer code basically what gets back what returns from the browser all cool stuff that powers your client-side testing you can see here all of the response tokens i make heavy use of that here as well so all dandy all works fun and easy but this testing team that wanted the email team that was building this service to put adobe target server-side using the delivery api wanted the ability to come into adobe target set up activities do their thing rock and roll but there was concerns given that the team was new to target they didn’t want to give them approver rights which which would essentially blow allow them to touch other activities if they use the wrong mbox name as part of the delivery apis it could create potential problems so lots of different custom things were talked about and then i was brought aware that i’ve made aware of the situations i’ve brought up host groups long term though long term it’s it’s definitely going to be the workspaces longer long term but for now as they’re building out this service we can incorporate workspaces later but host groups was the way to go so we wanted to give them the ability to get to to to modify activities modify offers because you could modify you can’t modify an offer if it’s live unless you have approver status here so what we did here is here’s an example of an adobe target server side call so we got my mbox name that’s taking place domain whatever so i’m going to update this to thinking is it mia dash franklin so oh let’s check to see so i’m going to so i’ll just make this call really quick to adobe server side boom nothing ah this is default content didn’t get any content returned but i’m going to come over to here let’s look at the host groups and see if i got franklin in there let’s see let’s try brian there’s brian let’s try mia dash franklin there it is mia dash franklin so this is a production host group and so what that means is that if it’s a production host group that the activity has to be approved has to be turned on there’s no way around that and this is the activity that we’re using host demo it’s not not approved but what we can do is we can say okay for staging host group for for activities and staging let’s change the activity mode to active and inactive activities and so i’m going to hit save here so i say that so basically if it’s a staging host group that means unapproved like this activity here it’s inactive should technically be able to fire so let me go over here and search for mia franklin i’m going to change the environment i’m going to change franklin over to staging and hit save so that’s now staging my activity here let’s take a look at this it’s using host demo i’m just returning this json object hello world no targeting in place because i’m using you know i’m using basically this this mbox name um don’t say to do not approve so let’s go back over to studio code i’ll close this response here and i will do a refresh boom lovely so there you go so you can see kind of i got my content back as well i cut the response back as well as all of the response tokens as well so this was huge so just to kind of refresh host groups very very powerful way to allow organizations to qa things but be careful though if you were to put a host group in there let’s say your your development or staging environment what could what could happen like so for example if if i were to use something like if i were to go to let’s say miaprova.com if i were to put me a pro let me put www if i were to change this to staging what would that happen is that all of the unapproved activities on the site so basically all of the ones that are inactive within fire so something to be very very careful with for this particular situation was really helpful um and there you have it
