Adding associated static data in the Customer Profile Designer

Updated on May 30, 2022

In addition to creating data aggregates, you can also use the Customer Profile Designer to associate static data, such as database tables, with customer contexts. For example, you can associate an investment portfolio table with the Account Owner context.

Caution: The relationship with associated entities can be one-to-one or one-to-many. Pega Customer Decision Hub does not support many-to-many relationships.Note: Organizations in the financial services, healthcare, or insurance industries can use the Customer Profile Designer accelerator component to speed up MLP implementation, and as an example for building additional Customer Profile Designer summaries. However, the component is not required for Customer Profile Designer to work, and you can also complete the steps below without installing the accelerator.
  1. In Dev Studio, create a Data Set rule for the associated entity. For more information, see Data Set rules - Completing the Create, Save As, or Specialization form.
    Important: Ensure that the type of the data set is Database Table.
  2. In the Pega Customer Decision Hub interaction portal, click DataProfile Data Sources.
  3. Select the data set that you want to associate with a customer context by clicking AddData set.
  4. In the Add data set window, select the data set and click Add.
  5. Open the Customer Profile Designer by clicking DataProfile Designer.
  6. Click Edit.
  7. Next to the context with which you want to associate the data set, click Add associated dataData set and then select the data set from the list.
    Tip: A single data source can only be associated with a single customer context. You cannot associate the same data source with multiple contexts.
  8. Click Save.Result: The data set is now associated with the customer context. You can review the context in the Context Dictionary.
What to do next: For a property on an associated entity to be available as criteria in a segment, it must be added to the External Mappings of the appropriate context class.
