Custom event with no custom data
How to use xDB Migration Tool to handle a custom event without custom data.
In Sitecore 8.x, page events have a number of standard properties available to store data. These include:
Data
DataKey
Name
Text
This section is appropriate if the custom event you are mapping to in Sitecore 9 does not have any additional properties to consider.
Consider an example where, in Sitecore 8.x, you captured a page event when the visitor views a page that displays the status of his membership in a customer loyalty program.
In MongoDB, the page event looks like the following:
{
"Name" : "Loyalty program status checked",
"ItemId" : NUUID("4257b6b4-e263-4356-bba1-9affce442a77"),
"Timestamp" : NumberLong(0),
"Text" : "Loyalty program status checked for member 100011",
"PageEventDefinitionId" : NUUID("5963f929-f278-4784-ba9d-be2fa5b86ae9"),
"DateTime" : ISODate("2017-11-11T11:00:00.000Z"),
"Value" : 5
}
In Sitecore 9, you created the following custom event to represent this data:
using Sitecore.XConnect;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace MigrationTool.Examples.Loyalty
{
public class LoyaltyProgramStatusCheckedEvent1 : Event
{
public LoyaltyProgramStatusCheckedEvent1(Guid definitionId, DateTime timestamp) : base(definitionId, timestamp)
{
}
}
}
You want to implement the following mapping:
Sitecore 8.x property | Sitecore 9 property |
|---|---|
