Upgrading Publication Targets and Target Types when upgrading from SmartTarget 2011 SP2
If you are upgrading from SmartTarget 2011 SP2, several upgrade steps are needed.
About this task
A number of things have changed between SmartTarget 2011 SP2 and SDL Web Experience Optimization 8:
- Instead of a Content Delivery endpoint to connect to, your Publication Targets should connect to a Management service.
- If you have multiple Publication Targets pointing to the same Content Delivery Endpoint URL, you will need to change your Publication Targets to each point to a unique Management service (one Management service must point to one Fredhopper instance).
- You must configure your Publication Target to authenticate through the Token Service introduced in SDL Web 8, rather than using an OData Access Token URL.
- You must set the Manage Experiments right for Users and User Groups on a Target Type.
