Connecting Sitecore Personalize to an external system

Sitecore Personalize enables you to use analytical models in decision model variants such as propensity models, forecast models, and outlier models to name a few. This provides the ability to use the latest machine learning technologies as input in a decision table or programmable decision. You can also use a data system in a decision model variant which is an external system that contains dynamic data.

If your organization is using Sitecore Cloud Portal, team members with a User, Developer, or Admin role in Cloud Portal can connect to an external system.

If your organization is not using Sitecore Cloud Portal, you must have an Enterprise Designer role to set up a connection to the data system or analytical model platform. This is required in order for users to select the data system or analytical model to connect to when they configure a decision model variant.

If you are creating a triggered experiment, you must set up a connection to the destination where you want to send the personalized data, such as Sitecore Send or an Email Service Provider (ESP).
