Adding Cartridges to the Content Service

If your SDL Tridion Sites implementation uses the RESTful API introduced in version 8, your Ambient Data Framework is located in the (Session-enabled) Content Service. Add Experience Optimization Ambient Data Framework Cartridge to the resources of that microservice.

Procedure

  1. On your target machine, navigate to the subfolder for Experience Optimization (called, for example, experienceoptimization\) that you created under the services\ subfolder of the Content Service or Session-enabled Content Service root location.
  2. On the installation media, from the Experience Optimization\Content Delivery\Ambient Data Framework\cartridges\ folder, copy the following files to the target machine folder:
    • session_cartridge.jar
    • smarttarget_cartridge.jar
  3. In the configuration location of your Content Service of Session-enabled Content Service, open cd_ambient_conf.xml for editing.
  4. Find the <Cartridges> section and add the following Cartridge elements inside it:
    <Cartridge File="session_cartridge_conf.xml" />
    <Cartridge File="smarttarget_cartridge_conf.xml" />
  5. Save and close cd_ambient_conf.xml.
