The Data Delivery Groups Page

The Data Delivery Groups page is where you manage the data delivery groups that have been built in your account.

A data delivery group is a group of segments that have been configured to be delivered to specified destinations with shared delivery rules.

Note

The other aspect of activating data is to create a connection from your LiveRamp account to each platform using the appropriate integration. These connections are called “destination connections” and are used by the data delivery groups to deliver data. For more information, see "Destination Connections".

To navigate to the Data Delivery Groups page, select Destinations → Data Delivery Groups from the navigation pane.

Column Headings on the Data Delivery Groups Page

The Data Delivery Groups page table displays the following columns:

Note

You can change columns that are displayed, sort by a specific column, or change the column order. See "Changing the Table Display" for more information.

  • Data Delivery Group Name: The name of the data delivery group

  • Segments: The number of segments in the data delivery group

  • Integrations: The number of destination connections associated with the data delivery group

  • Taxonomy: The status of the taxonomy step of the activation process: "Not Started", "Initializing", "Pending", or "Completed".

    Note

    The taxonomy step involves sending segment metadata (usually including the segment name and destination segment ID) to the destination platform. This step is usually performed via API and is usually completed in ~15 minutes. This is performed once for each segment per destination platform and is not repeated once successfully sent.

  • Matching: The status of the matching step of the activation process: "Not Started", "Initializing", "Pending", or "Completed".

    Note

    The matching step uses the LiveRamp Identity Graph to match the original input identifiers in the segments to the identifier types for your destination platforms. For example, for an activation bundle distribution to Adobe and Facebook, we match your RampID input identifiers to Adobe cookies and Facebook IDs.

  • Delivery: The status of the delivery step of the activation process: "Not Started", "Initializing", "In Progress", or "Completed".

    Note

    The delivery step delivers the matched IDs (such as cookies, mobile IDs, or Ramp IDs) to the destination platform. Once this step has been completed, that data has left the LiveRamp system.

  • Delivery Cadence: The cadence of deliveries selected for the data delivery group: "Manual", "Weekly", "Twice Monthly", or "Monthly".

For information on viewing additional data delivery group details, see the "View Data Delivery Group Details" section below.
