Hello Sahu
To provide context on the business need for this request, exposing
external_idfrom the Dixa End User object into the warehouse schema is essential for standard data modeling and data privacy compliance.Specifically, this field supports three standard workflows:
-
Entity Resolution & Cross-Platform Reporting
external_idserves as the primary foreign key between communication logs (calls, emails, chats) and core customer records. Relying on mutable attributes like email address or phone number creates join errors and duplicate records in downstream analytics. -
Data Retention & Activity Tracking
Accurate data lifecycle management and privacy compliance (e.g., GDPR) require tracking a customer's true last interaction across all channels. Without a direct link to the primary user identifier, support activity in Dixa cannot be accurately incorporated into retention schedules.
-
Automated Redaction & Erasure Workflows
When customer records reach their retention limit or require erasure under data protection regulations, automated downstream workflows need a reliable identifier to locate and programmatically redact or purge corresponding records in Dixa.
Because
external_idis already a standard field in Dixa's API, syncing it downstream would allow any team using Dixa to maintain consistent identity mapping and automate compliance operations.Thank you
