Exam Data-Cloud-Consultant Topic 8 Question 21 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's Data-Cloud-Consultant exam
Question #: 21
Topic #: 8
A retail customer wants to bring customer data from different sources
and wants to take advantage of identity resolution so that it can be
used in segmentation.
On which entity should this be segmented for activation membership?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Explanation
The correct answer is B, Unified Individual. A Unified Individual is a record that represents a customer across different data sources, created by applying identity resolution rulesets. Identity resolution rulesets are sets of match and reconciliation rules that define how to link and merge data from different sources based on common attributes. Data Cloud uses identity resolution rulesets to resolve data across multiple data sources and helps you create one record for each customer, regardless of where the data came from1. A retail customer who wants to bring customer data from different sources and use identity resolution for segmentation should segment on the Unified Individual entity, which contains the resolved and consolidated customer data. The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the resolved customer data across different sources. A Subscriber is a record that represents a customer who has opted in to receive marketing communications. A Unified Contact is a record that represents a customer who has a relationship with a specific business unit. An Individual is a record that represents a customer's profile data from a single data source. References:
