Thanks Paul, that makes sense.

For now, we’ll keep using a dedicated internal/service profile with getSessionForProfile() + callAPIForSession() as a temporary workaround for our monthly transaction reporting job.

Could you please confirm whether this workaround is safe to use temporarily in production, as long as we do not include a profileId in the search criteria and only use the session to authorize the request?

Also, we’d appreciate it if you could let us know once the S2S proxy hookup for SYS_GET_TRANSACTIONS_PAGE has been reviewed or fixed.

Thanks again for checking into this.

Thank you for your response.

We used the automated promotion without making any changes to it. However, we confirmed that it works correctly in the production app.

It seems that the issue may have been temporary, or that there was something incorrect in our configuration at the time. If the issue occurs again, we will contact you again with more details.

Thank you for your help.

My question has been answered.
Thank you for your kind and detailed explanations every time.

Thank you for your helpful response.

Unfortunately, since this feature does not align with the specifications we are currently planning, we have decided not to use it for the time being.

We will contact you again if we need it in the future.
Thank you.

@Paul-Winterhalder Thank you!

Thank you for your kind response.

@gyutaelee I will investigate the Per Promotion Deployment option you requested.

As I was working on this I thought there may be a workaround for you that you would like. This could work for your team with minimal effort and on your current version of brainCloud portal.

My solution hides the promotion so that only users you flag as TESTERS will see it.

This would let your PROD testers gain the benefit of the no-ads promotion without disrupting your monetization.

Within Automatic Promotions, there is the option to Target members of any of these segments.

Within Scheduled Promotions, there is the option to Offer this promo to: Only users in:

Advancing to App > Design > Segmentation > Segments we can create a segment that filters to players that are flagged as Testers.

Now, segments need to have at least one more criteria, so let's choose something like has logged in at least 1 time.

Save this Segment

IMPORTANT! Add the segment to your Promotion
This will limit the promo to only eligible users. Noone else sees it!

Next we will need to flag some users as Testers. For a DEV app, the easiest way to do this is to go to the User Browser, RECENTLY ACTIVE and pick players (your testers) with recent activity.

GO TO USER to bring up their user summary and check the IsTester checkbox.

Testers get a special icon

Next, we will return to Segments.

Segments are automatically processed overnight, but you can Refresh Segments immediately with the REFRESH SEGMENTS button. Please note: refreshing segments processes every player so this process can take a while and preferably left to low-traffic times of day.

After processing completes, we can check the cohort of testers by returning to the User Browser choosing BROWSE, and Browse Within A Segment.

These are my Testers, so everything worked.

Since only testers are eligible for the promotion, you are free to deploy it to PROD without affecting your monetization. And the PROD Testers you select will be able to gain the workflow benefit of no ads.

Could you let me know if this solution solves your problem?

Let me know if you have any questions,
Regards
