8.4.4.2. Using Personas

A Persona is a collection of artificial context properties under the control of the editors. The type of properties to use depends on the configured contexts. For example the name of a visitor is a String while the number of likes performed is a numeric value.

See Table 8.11, “Adaptive Personalization contexts configured for CoreMedia Blueprint” for an overview of configured contexts.

Using the Persona Selector an editor is able to test a Personalized Content document. By choosing a specific Persona all its contexts are activated within the Preview CAE. As a result, the Preview CAE renders content as if corresponding contexts were available at request processing time.
