Aria's Activity Loader (UAL) allows you to load batches of data into Aria by means of various API calls. For instance, if you have data stored in a separate system and you want this data transferred into Aria, UAL allows you to set up an automated process that loads this information into the Aria platform. The type of data you may wish to load into Aria includes, but is not limited to:
By default, the data that you configure for transfer into Aria is loaded during a nightly batch job. The batch job consists of a data retrieval from a predefined FTP server, which Aria then attempts to load and parse as defined by the specific APIs calls in use.
In addition, you can run UAL batch jobs on-demand, as well as configure up to six additional batch jobs in a given day.
The following core steps are necessary to complete your UAL configuration:
For a summary of the process by which UAL data flows from your system(s) into Aria, refer to the UAL Flow Diagram.
Note: UAL is not PCI compliant. Therefore, it is not recommended that you load credit card information into Aria using UAL.
