Why teams connect Adobeanalytics and IBM AS/400

Give Adobeanalytics the users, events, and records that live in IBM AS/400 in real time, and sync the cohorts and scores Adobeanalytics computes back into IBM AS/400 where your applications read them.

Adobeanalytics is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into IBM AS/400, so IBM AS/400 always reflects the current state of Adobeanalytics — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

A database holds the rows your business runs on: the users, events, orders, and records that every service reads and writes. Adobeanalytics is where people make sense of them, as dashboards, funnels, cohorts, and metrics. Moving the data from IBM AS/400 into Adobeanalytics usually means a hand-built extract or a change-data-capture pipeline that breaks the moment a column is renamed, and reporting that always trails last night's load.

Common use cases

  • 01 Sync Segment definitions into a marketing database so downstream tools target the same audiences Adobe Analytics computes.
  • 02 Read Users and Usage/Audit logs into a security or governance database for access reviews and tool-usage reporting across the Analytics company.
  • 03 Expose AS/400 order, inventory, and item master data to modern SaaS tools without rewriting green-screen applications.
  • 04 Use journal-based change capture to replicate IBM i data into a cloud warehouse for reporting.

Common sync patterns

One version of each user or account

A user, account, or record corrected in either system updates the other, so the identity your reports group by matches the identity your database stores.

Filter and grouping dimensions kept fresh

Attributes teams slice by, such as plan, region, or account owner, stay current in Adobeanalytics because they sync from IBM AS/400 as they change, instead of going stale after a one-time import.

Where Adobeanalytics tracks product events: behavior onto stored records

Signup, usage, and lifecycle events captured in Adobeanalytics sync into IBM AS/400 as rows, so applications and internal tools can read behavioral data next to the records they already keep.

What you can sync between Adobeanalytics and IBM AS/400

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Adobeanalytics objects IBM AS/400 objects How this pairing syncs
Usage and Access Logs Admin audit and usage logs of report and tool activity, read via the usage/audit-log endpoints; loaded for security, governance, and adoption reporting. Rows / records The unit of read and write, accessed via SQL or record-level access. Usage and Access Logs is specific to Adobeanalytics and Rows / records to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Reports Core reporting endpoint (POST /reports on analytics.adobe.io); returns ranked or trended report data for chosen metrics broken down by dimensions over a date range, with optional segment filters. The main dataset Stacksync reads out. Journals and journal receivers The change log that enables log-based CDC on journaled files. Reports is specific to Adobeanalytics and Journals and journal receivers to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Dimensions Available report dimensions (eVars, props, and standard dimensions) per report suite, read via GET /dimensions; pulled as reporting metadata to build report requests and mirror the model. Data queues Program-to-program messaging objects sometimes used to hand events off to integrations. Dimensions is specific to Adobeanalytics and Data queues to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Metrics Standard metrics available for a report suite, read via GET /metrics; read as metadata to construct report requests and document available measures. Libraries The schema-equivalent containers that scope which files a sync reads. Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and Libraries to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Calculated Metrics User-defined derived metrics, read via GET /calculatedmetrics; mirrored so downstream tools reference the same calculated-metric definitions. Physical files (tables) The Db2 for i tables mapped directly to sync targets. Calculated Metrics is specific to Adobeanalytics and Physical files (tables) to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Segments Saved segment definitions used to filter reports, read via GET /segments; cataloged and reused so downstream systems target the same audiences. Logical files (views) Indexed or filtered views over physical files, usable as read sources. Segments is specific to Adobeanalytics and Logical files (views) to IBM AS/400 — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Adobeanalytics and IBM AS/400

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Adobeanalytics IBM AS/400 Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Adobeanalytics for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule.

DeliveryEach detected change is applied to IBM AS/400 as a row-level write, with types converted between the two schemas.

IBM AS/400 Adobeanalytics Sub-second propagation

DetectionChanges in IBM AS/400 are captured at the source via change data capture — no polling loop against its API. Journal-based CDC by reading journal receivers on journaled files.

DeliveryAdobeanalytics does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Adobeanalytics's output flows back as field updates on the originating IBM AS/400 records.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Adobeanalytics: The Analytics 2.0 API enforces 12 requests per 6 seconds (about 120 per minute) per user; exceeding it returns HTTP 429 with error_code 429050. A separate per-report-suite reporting-engine throttle can slow large requests without returning an error.
  • IBM AS/400: Bounded by system resources and subsystem configuration rather than an API quota.

How the Adobeanalytics and IBM AS/400 connectors work

Adobeanalytics

Integration surface
Analytics 2.0 REST API on analytics.adobe.io for reporting and components; Data Feeds and Data Warehouse for raw hit-level export; Data Insertion and Bulk Data Insertion (CSV) APIs for inbound server-side collection.
Authentication
OAuth Server-to-Server via the Adobe Developer Console (JWT service-account auth was deprecated January 1, 2025). The company's global company ID is sent in the x-proxy-global-company-id header, and the integration needs at least the Report Suites, Metrics, and Dimensions permission groups.
Change detection
Pull-based over a date range: reports are requested for a from/to window and re-queried on a schedule. No change-data-capture feed or report-data webhooks; Adobe recommends not polling for new data faster than every 30 minutes and caching results.
