Compatibility updates

The following FDA connectors have been added. Refer to this page.

• Databricks is now supported as an external database with Adobe Campaign Federated Data Access (FDA).

• A new Amazon Redshift FDA ODBC connector is now available. It offers improved connectivity, easier maintenance and enhanced compatibility. This new version brings the following improvements:

  • The new connector is based on the ODBC interface which aligns with our most recent FDA connectors. This ensures long term support.
  • It also introduces a new data loading mechanism using s3 buckets, significantly improving performance.

  The legacy connector can still be used. If you want to try out the new one, please reach out to your Adobe representative.

Migration to OAuth Server-to-Server credential

Starting this version, with the Service Account (JWT) credential being deprecated by Adobe, Campaign outbound integrations with Adobe solutions and apps now rely on OAuth Server-to-Server credential. Adobe will perform the JWT to OAuth migration for your outbound integrations, such as Campaign-Analytics integration or Experience Cloud Triggers integration.

If you have implemented inbound integrations with Campaign, you must migrate your Technical Account as detailed in this documentation. Existing Service Account (JWT) credentials will continue to work until June 30, 2025.

General improvements

• Several schemas have been changed from 32 to 64 bits. This only applies to customers migrating from Campaign Standard. Read more

• In Campaign tables, the following attributes are now populated by default by the server date and time: lastModified and created. The createdBy-id attribute value is now populated with the current login ID by default. Values provided by users in API calls are ignored.
