Server-Side Troubleshooting

This guide outlines comprehensive troubleshooting steps for server-side connections with Eloqua.

General Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Confirm that the integration is set up in Video Cloud Studio:

    • Log in into Video Cloud Studio.

    • In the left navigation panel, click Integrations.

    • Click Customer Data Platforms.
    • Confirm that Eloqua exists in the Viewing Data Integrations section.
    • If an Eloqua integration does not exist, please create an Eloqua integration by clicking on New Integration

  2. Confirm that views are being generated in Brightcove:

    • In the left navigation panel, click Analytics, then click Performance.

    • Group by Viewer.

    • Confirm that the data in the Viewer column conforms to the Viewer ID property set for the integration.

      • For Customer ID, viewer IDs should be of the form CTCPB00000000XXXX
      • For Viewer Token, viewer IDs should be of the form XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
      • If the data does not conform to the expected format, please check your Player configuration to ensure the correct viewer ID is being set.
      • You may need to wait 24-48 hours for the data in Analytics to be synced to Eloqua.
  3. Confirm that Contacts exist in Eloqua:

    • Log into your Eloqua instance.

    • Hover over the ID icon in the top navigation panel and click Contacts.

    • Search for expected contacts.
    • If the contacts do not exist, please check your Lead Form configuration to ensure contacts are being created correctly.

  4. Confirm that the custom object exists in Eloqua:

    • Hover over the ID icon in the top navigation panel and click Custom Objects.

    • In the left navigation panel, there should be a BrightcoveViewEvent custom object.
    • If there is no custom object, please try to delete the Eloqua integration in Brightcove and recreate it.
