Register an estimate interactions API task

Version: 10.4

You can use the xConnect Web API to estimate the amount of data to purge from your interactions. To do this, you must register an estimate task.

To register a task:

  • Use the following API:

    RequestResponse
    <instance>/sitecore/api/datatools/estimate/interactions

    The successful task registration request returns the total count of interactions, for example:

    RequestResponse
    {
    "TotalCount": 34500
}

Parameters

The following describes the POST parameters that you can send to the Web API to register a purge task:

Important

Combined parameters act as an AND condition. This means all the parameters sent to the API filter the data to purge.

Description

StartedDaysCutoff

No

-

Nullable Integer

The StartedDaysCutoff parameter specifies the number of days since the interaction started. This parameter filters interactions based on its StartDateTime value. The StartDateTime reflects the interaction's starting DateTime.

The StartDateTime value must not violate the configuration setting value for the minimum number of days for the data purge worker. The minimum available value is 180 days by default (see Configure the Cortex Processing Engine for task registration).

StartPercentile

Yes

Null

Nullable Double

The start sampling range value. The range restriction is 0 to 1.

The percentile range specifies the subset of data to extract.

The data extraction process filters interactions based on the percentile range and the StartedDaysCutoff parameter.

EndPercentile

Yes

Null

Nullable Double

The end sampling range value. The range restriction is 0 to 1.

The percentile range specifies the subset of data to extract.

The data extraction process filters interactions based on the percentile range and the StartedDaysCutoff parameter.
