A business running a promotion wants to show a 10% discount banner only to users who have not interacted with their site in the last 30 days. How should this be implemented in Adobe Target?

Question

Options

• ACreate a Profile Script to identify inactive users
• BUse Analytics for Target (A4T) for segmentation
• CSet up a multi-page test in Visual Experience Composer
• DUse an Adobe Audience Manager (AAM) segment

• A
  75% (33)
• B
  7% (3)
• C
  5% (2)
• D
  14% (6)

Explanation

Profile Scripts in Adobe Target are the right tool here because they run server-side on each visitor's profile, allowing you to track behavioral data like "days since last visit" and persist that value across sessions - making it possible to gate content based on inactivity thresholds like 30 days.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• B (A4T): Analytics for Target integrates reporting data between Adobe Analytics and Target, but it's a measurement/reporting integration, not a mechanism for real-time audience segmentation or behavioral triggers.
• C (Multi-page test in VEC): The Visual Experience Composer is for designing experiences across pages in an A/B or multivariate test - it has nothing to do with defining who sees an experience based on behavioral history.
• D (AAM segment): Adobe Audience Manager segments work for third-party or DMP-based audiences, but AAM requires additional integration and is overkill for simple first-party behavioral data already available natively in Target's visitor profiles.

Memory tip: Think of Profile Scripts as Target's "per-user memory" - any time a question involves tracking or reacting to a visitor's own past behavior (recency, frequency, history) within Target alone, Profile Scripts are your answer. If it's about who the user is from an external data source, that's when AAM enters the picture.
