Loader Criteo

This component creates a new audience or updates users to an existing audience in Criteo. When updating an audience, the loader first deletes the users in the audience and then adds users.

Data In/ Data Out

Data In

CSV used for identifiers should be located in /data/in/tables/.


The input CSV file is a list of users to be added to the audience, with each row being the identifier type (type) and an identifier (value). The file must contain type and value as headers.


Possible values for type are:


Type

It is strongly recommended to send the email addresses hashing with MD5, or SHA256 of its MD5 hash as a best practice.

FAQs

I successfully updated the audience, why does it not show up in Criteo?

Please check if the audience size is big enough. 
In Criteo, audiences with less than 500 identifiers would not be processed.

Moreover, if there are less than 1000 matched identifiers, the audience Status in Criteo will show that there is Not Enough Data and will not be usable in Criteo.
