In the Data 360 activation, you must include at least one Marketing Cloud Personalization identity attribute. - In Data 360 activation, Email Address is the default setting on the activation. In Personalization, `emailAddress` is the default identity attribute name. For default attributes that are included in the activation, you don’t need to enter a preferred attribute name. The Data 360 Email Address value automatically maps to the Personalization `emailAddress` identity attribute value. - To use additional attributes as identifiers in the activation, add the attribute and its preferred attribute name to the activation setup. The preferred attribute name must match an identity attribute name in Personalization exactly. - If a user in the activation isn’t added as expected to the segment in Personalization, it’s possible that - they don’t have any identity attributes in the file, and - their subscriber key value doesn’t match any existing profile ID value in Personalization. This scenario can result in different counts of individuals between the Data 360 segment and the Personalization segment. Count differences can occur because identity merges in Personalization that are based on identity attributes included in the activation can also contribute to a difference in the final segment member count. - Any attributes that you add to the activation must have a preferred attribute name that matches the name of an existing attribute in the target Personalization dataset. The activation doesn’t create attributes in Personalization. Attribute names in Personalization are case-sensitive. If the preferred attribute name in the activation doesn’t match an attribute in Personalization, then the job throws errors, and the activation can fail if the error threshold is exceeded. ## Data 360 Activation Success Precedes Ingestion into Personalization Activation success in Data 360 means only that Data 360 successfully posted the activation file to the SFTP for ingestion by Personalization. It doesn’t mean that Personalization successfully ingested the activation file. ## Monitoring an Activation Job in Personalization - To monitor a job in Personalization, navigate to the Feeds Dashboard page in the target Personalization dataset. On the left side of the Feeds Dashboard, under the Feeds column, select **SalesforceCDPActivationETL**. - To see the filename associated with a specific activation feed, click the feed in the SalesforceCDPActivationETL History tab. The filename starts with the Activation ID. - To view other information or to troubleshoot a feed, click **Review Execution** on the SalesforceCDPActivationETL History tab. On the page that opens, to view the feed's log, click the Log tab. Inside the log, show additional information by clicking the dropdown next to **com.apptegic.excavate.domain.jobs.gears.EtlProcessingDatasetJob**. Scroll to view the activation ID and batch ID. - If the feed job fails, view error messages in the **consoleLine** tab. The file name appears under the file name information. #### See Also - [ETL File Requirements](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=mktg.mc_pers_etl_file_requirements.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "ETL files contain entries such as users, products, subscription list members, promotions, transactions, and more.
