Source Dataset Requirements for the Contacts Data Product

The Contacts data product includes a predefined, standardized schema for contact data. When you add data to your data product, you identify how columns in your source datasets correspond to the attributes in the unified schema.

To prepare, review the general Requirements for Source Datasets.

The table below describes these attributes and explains which are:

  • Required: You cannot refresh your data until you map source columns to these attributes.
  • Suggested: For optimal enrichment and clustering results, map source columns to these attributes.
  • Optional: These attributes have minimal impact on your clustering and enrichment results. If your source data includes columns that match these attributes, map them to include that source data in your completed data product.
