AudienceStore Connector Setup Guide
With the AudienceStore Connector, you can send visitor profile data to Tealium’s Amazon S3 bucket. A visitor profile contains data pertinent to the visitor and their visit (excluding events), typically captured by the Tealium Collect Tag. Rather than exporting one visitor profile at a time, the AudienceStore connector selects visitor profiles that share common behaviors to send to AudienceStore.
Requirements
- AudienceStore must be enabled for your account. Contact your Tealium Account Manager for more information.
- Your account must have active audiences. For more information, see Building an Audience.
- Audience names must be fewer than 128 characters in length. Otherwise, DataAccess may trim the audience name and errors may occur.

Action Settings - Parameters and Options
The AudienceStore connector has two actions that allow you to specify the data to export and when to trigger the export. Data is compressed in log files and uploaded to the audiences folder in the S3 bucket. By default, data is stored as JSON key-value pairs. In S3, you can download the data and analyze it using the business intelligence tool of your choice.
The connector sends data when the batch reaches 100 MB in size or after 1 hour passes, whichever happens first. You can change the default behavior with the Record Count Maximum, Time to Live, and Payload Size Maximum parameters.
Enter a name for the action and select the action type from the drop-down menu.
The following section describes how to set up parameters and options for each action.
