Learning Objectives

After completing this unit, you’ll be able to:

  • Set up data spaces.
  • Prepare for auditing and ongoing maintenance.

About Data Spaces

As an admin, you have the option to create additional data spaces for your Data Cloud account. But first what is a data space? A data space is a way to partition to organize your data for profile unification, insights, and marketing in Data Cloud. Learn more in this short video.

Create a Data Space

  1. Go to Data Cloud Setup.
  2. Under Feature Management, click Data Spaces.
  3. Click New, and give the data space a unique name that identifies its brand, region, or department.
  4. Enter a unique data space prefix, starting with a letter and including up to three alphanumeric characters.
  5. Add an optional description about the purpose of the data space.
  6. Click Save.

Data can now be added to your data space.

Note

Learn more about how to Manage Data Spaces in help documentation.  

Additional Data Cloud Setup Tasks

You are nearing the end of implementation; it's a good time to learn about additional tasks your team might need your help with.

  • Create a package in Data Cloud. As an admin, you can package and install your Data Cloud Amazon S3 data streams for distribution. A package is a container for Salesforce Metadata Component that can be either individual configurations or an entire custom Salesforce platform app. After the package is created, you can distribute it to other Salesforce users and orgs via an install link or AppExchange.  Learn more in the badge, Packaging and Data Kits in Data Cloud.
  • Identify your account's functional domain. The functional domain refers to the Salesforce's public cloud infrastructure where your instance is located. This information is helpful to provide when troubleshooting any potential issues with support. (Similar to knowing your MID in Marketing Cloud Engagement). From Data Cloud Setup, click Setup Home. Your functional domain is listed at the bottom of the page.

Auditing and Ongoing Maintenance

Since you now have more users in your account and you have connections established, consider your monitoringtasks.

  • Monitor usage and credit consumption. As an admin, it’s important to check your account for activities that impact your credit consumption. These include queries, ingestion, number of segments, and so on. Learn more about credit consumption in the Trailhead module, Data Cloud Credit Consumption: Quick Look.
  • View record modification fields. All objects include fields to store the name of the user who created the record and who last modified the record. This provides some basic auditing information to help troubleshoot.
  • View and monitor setup changes with Setup Audit Trail. Admins can view Setup Audit Trail, which logs when modifications are made to your organization’s configuration.
  • View and monitor login history. You can review a list of successful and failed login attempts to your organization for the past 6 months.
  • Monitor account status on Salesforce Trust. Monitor service availability and performance for both your Marketing Cloud Engagement connection and your Data Cloud account. By doing so you can quickly identify issues related to ongoing incidents before you spend too much time troubleshooting.

Great job—you're officially ready to be a an awesome admin for Data Cloud!
