Hi Alysha,

Will you share the Quiz scores with us?  Also can we know the correct answers?

[suneethadadi31]

@yakshisharma - You would have received your score immediately after submitting the form (as below) , along with the correct answers. That’s how we all were able to see our scores.

[yakshisharma]

My bad. I forgot to check that time. 

[yakshisharma]

@alysha_khan23 

[yakshisharma]

Thank you for explaining it well @alysha_khan23 😊

[suneethadadi31]

@alysha_khan23 - Thank you! I love the strategy pointed. we can effectively narrow down to the solution.

[DaveSilva]

Thanks for the video Alysha, super clear!

[suneethadadi31]

@alysha_khan23 - As of today 

Thanks,

Suneetha

[alysha_khan23]

@DaveSilva @suneethadadi31 I'll fix both those issues! Thanks for flagging 🙂 

[suneethadadi31]

@alysha_khan23 - Thank you for the post! I've completed my form for a 50% certification exam voucher and also took the test (Got 9/10) slightly missed on global assets question. Also for multiple options -"Choose all that apply" could have been mentioned.

Best,

Suneetha

[DaveSilva]

Thanks Alysha!

I just completed the test.

I think the first question is worded wrong, though, since it indicates "is the benefit" (singular), but then expects multiple responses.

[alysha_khan23]

@ellekay @DaveSilva @Greninja - Got a specific nudge for you three 🙂 Haven't seen a ton of comments for y'all so want to make sure you're getting your questions answers. Let me know how I can be helpful!

[ellekay]

Sorry, it's been so busy at work! We're such a slim team (team of 3) and someone is going on maternity leave. So i'm trying to catch up on this!

[alysha_khan23]

@ellekay Totally understand! I would at least take the quiz I posted and peruse the study guide so you can apply for the 50% discount.

[DaveSilva]

Hi Alysha,

I've been following along in the thread -- just haven't had many questions about the prep material so far.

However, one thing that came up with me team is the execution order of campaign processing.

I found the articles below, which outline the priority, but they don't seem to go into detail about how prioritization works when multiple campaigns are essentially the same. If they are set to the same priority, and contain the same flow steps (say, an alert), but for different alerts, does it just come down to alphabetical order? Or perhaps creation date of the campaign?

[alysha_khan23]

@DaveSilva Great question! It will be based on the time stamp of when the campaign was added to queue to run. If something of higher priority comes into the queue then it would take priority and then return to the queue based on when the lower priority things were added.

[DaveSilva]

That makes sense, but what if they should both qualify to enter the queue at the same time?

I couldn't find any documentation on how Marketo decides to queue up campaigns that are equivalent in every way -- other than alphabetical name or creation date, or something. 

[alysha_khan23]

@DaveSilva I'm honestly not sure! I would recommend posting a separate question in Marketing Nation to see if other folks can help you out. I would also be curious about what scenarios you're team is facing in which this matters. 

[DaveSilva]

We have a number of normalization programs that are similar, but for a variety of different fields/data, so I got curious in what order they would fire on new records being created. A temporary curiosity, because we’re rebuilding it all as executable programs and a central controller so we can guarantee the order they run in. 

[lizmalinowski]

@DaveSilva I have been leaning towards executable campaigns as I build out new operational campaigns for this very same reason! We have scenarios where alerts get sent before the SFDC sync happens, for example, and so some of the campaign information from SFDC is delayed and this seems to be a good solve.

@alysha_khan23 is there a limit to the number of executable campaigns you can call in 1 flow? This was mentioned to me by a partner we work with.

[alysha_khan23]

@DaveSilva @lizmalinowski 

There is a nesting limit for executables, which I think is 4 or 5 deep (i.e. a smart campaign calls an executable that calls an executable that calls an executable and so forth) but I don't think there's a limit to how many you can call back to back in a single smart campaign.
