These 10 free AADE questions are organized by exam domain, so you can see how each part of the Adobe Analytics Developer Expert blueprint is tested. Reveal the answer and explanation under each question.

Domain 1: Understanding Analytics in the Adobe Experience Cloud Ecosystem 10% of exam

Question 1

An Analytics for Target activity uses at.js, AppMeasurement, and the Experience Cloud ID Service. Purchases appear in Analytics, but some Target deliveries lack an activity association. The organization and selected report suite are correct. QA sees matching ECIDs in both solutions and concludes that the related calls must be joining correctly. What should be checked before accepting that conclusion?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - Whether the related Target and Analytics calls carry matching supplemental data IDs.

Domain 2: Strategy and design based on a solution design reference (SDR) 6% of exam

Question 2

A Solution Design Reference defines event14 as one completed account registration, not an attempt. The registration service may reject a form after client-side validation has passed. After a successful response, the application creates an account object and emits accountCreated exactly once; the success banner can be rendered repeatedly. Which capture point implements the stated measure?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B - Send event14 when accountCreated fires after the service confirms creation of the account.

Domain 3: Analytics Implementation and Configuration 36% of exam

Question 3

Paid search is recorded once in eVar8 on entry. The retailer requires it to receive purchase credit throughout the visit and configures Most Recent allocation with Visit expiration. After the entry hit, s.clearVars() runs. No new source is set before purchase. The purchase request omits v8, yet reporting credits paid search. How should the reviewer interpret this result?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B - Accept the result; clearVars() clears browser variables, not the persisted eVar8 value used for attribution.

Question 4

During a purchase test, one nonduplicate AppMeasurement hit contains: s.events = "purchase"; s.currencyCode = "USD"; s.products = ";TRAILBOOT;2;129.90,;WOOLSOCK;3;36.00"; The report suite also uses USD, and no processing rule changes these values. Tax and shipping are excluded from the supplied product amounts. The expected order, unit, and revenue totals are:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - 1 order, 5 units, USD 165.90 revenue.

Question 5

A custom comparison action uses a standalone AppMeasurement instance. The developer intends to send eVar7 and Counter event18 without recording a page view: s.eVar7 = "compare"; s.events = "event18"; s.linkTrackVars = "eVar7"; s.linkTrackEvents = "event18"; s.tl(true, "o", "Compare products"); The outgoing link request includes eVar7 but omits event18. No other code changes these settings. Select the smallest correction that preserves the intended hit type and both measurements.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D - Set s.linkTrackVars to "eVar7,events".

Question 6

One order contains a boot found through search and a hat found through recommendations. At confirmation, the order object retains each product's own finding method. Revenue must be attributed to the correct method for each product on a single purchase hit. Which design preserves that association?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - Use a Product Syntax merchandising eVar and put each method in its product's sixth products field.

Domain 4: Tag management systems 20% of exam

Question 7

Two Launch rules respond to the same application event. Rule A, order 10, starts an asynchronous membership lookup. Rule B, order 20, immediately sends an Analytics hit that needs the returned membership tier. Some hits lack the tier even though the lookup succeeds. Rule-component sequencing is enabled, and lookups finish within the action timeout. To make the dependency reliable, the developer should:

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - In one sequenced rule, return the tier-setting action's lookup promise and wait before the send action.

Question 8

Staging tests are complete and a Launch library is Approved. The release manager has Publish permission for the property, but neither Develop nor Approve. No resource changes remain. A colleague says the manager needs all three permissions to release it. How should the team proceed?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C - Have the manager publish the approved library using the existing Publish permission.

Domain 5: Mobile services 8% of exam

Question 9

An Android app uses the direct Adobe Analytics mobile extension. On a confirmed favorite action, MobileCore.trackAction("FavoriteAdded", data) sends app.favoriteAdded="1" and app.productId="BK204" as context data. A captured request reaches the intended report suite, but event12, the favorite counter, and eVar12, the product identifier, remain empty. No processing rules map these keys. The screen has not changed. What completes this implementation?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A - Use report-suite processing rules: when app.favoriteAdded="1", set event12=1; copy a populated app.productId into eVar12.

Domain 6: Testing, validation, and troubleshooting 20% of exam

Question 10

For one visitor in one visit, eVar5 has Most Recent allocation and Visit expiration. A fully processed trace contains four hits: 1. Page view: eVar5="email" is explicitly set. 2. Custom-link hit: eVar5 is not set. 3. Page view: eVar5 is not set. 4. Download-link hit: eVar5 is not set. No reset, expiration, exclusion, or processing override occurs. A reviewer expects the email row to show four eVar5 Instances because it has four Occurrences. Which result should the reviewer accept instead?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C - 1 eVar5 Instance, 4 Occurrences, and 2 Page Views.
