Update multiple entities of the API_MKT_CONTACT_SRV service through one single flow

Nov 12, 2018 at 11:52 AM | 101 Views | Last edit Nov 12, 2018 at 12:36 PM 2 rev.

Dear Community,

We tried to create/update contact data in SAP Marketing Cloud through the following service: API_MKT_CONTACT_SRV

What we noticed is that if try to create/update multiple entities through a single message, only the main contact entity gets updated.

In fact, we are trying to use that service to firstly create the contact (Contacts entity), then assign/update MarketingAreas (MarketingAreas entity) and then assign/update Marketing Permissions (MarketingPermissions entity). When we do it through one message, SAP Marketing Cloud ignores the Marketing Areas & Marketing Permissions and only creates the Contact.

Did anyone already faced such issue and would you have any idea about how to overcome that issue ?

Thank you

Best regards,

Vahan

    Hi Vahan,

    please have a look at this payload which creates a contact and assigns marketing permissions.

    Additional payloads you can find at:

    Hi Maik,

    Thank you for the explanation and the example.

    What we would like to know is also how to implement a flow in HCI that can produce such payload which will be accepted by Hybris Marketing, would you have any information on that ? Which step can reproduce the same result ?

    Best regards,

    Vahan
