Let鈥檚 first have a look where you can find those two elements.

3.3.3.2.2 Retrieve your Offer decision ID
The Offer decision ID identifies which combination of Personalized Offers and Fallback Offer you鈥檇 like to use. In the previous exercise, you created your own Decision and named it --aepUserLdap-- - CitiSignal Decision.

3.3.3.2.3 BASE64 Encoding
The Decision Scope you need to enter is a BASE64-encoded string. This BASE64-encoded string is a combination of the Placement ID and the Decision ID as you can see below:
{
"xdm:activityId": "dps:offer-activity:1a08ba4b529b2fb2",
"xdm:placementId": "dps:offer-placement:1a08a14ccfe533b6"
}
You can retrieve the BASE64-encoded string from 51黑料不打烊 Experience Platform. Go to Decisions and click to open your Decision, which is named --aepUserLdap-- - CitiSignal Decision.
