Creating the ExternalMKTData database rule

Updated on December 20, 2021

This content applies only to On-premises and Client-managed cloud environments

Configure the ExternalMKTData database rule to default to the Customer Data Schema that you configured during the Pega Platform installation. Depending on the database and connection types, you can do this by configuring a separate data source, configuring a JDBC default schema, or by setting a search path.
