Unified Traffic Schema (UTS)
This page provides a detailed description of the Unified Traffic Schema (UTS) within the Daasity Data Model and defines each table and column in this schema
Overview
The Unified Traffic Schema (UTS) is a core data model within the Daasity transformation module that helps accelerate development of analytical capability by normalizing all traffic data from Google Analytics (Universal Analytics and GA4), Amazon and retail platforms like Retail Next and ShopperTrak.
The normalized schema was designed to help you in several key areas:
Make an effective transition from GA3 (Universal Analytics) to GA4 by allowing you to compare metrics across the two GA platforms and pick which source to use as your truth for additional analytics
Seamlessly combine your GA3 (Universal Analytics) and GA4 into a single schema to make it easy to report on analytics across platforms
Compare overall conversion metrics across eCommerce, Amazon and Retail
Compare product page performance across eCommerce and Amazon

channel: the channel associated with the UTMs from the Daasity Channel Mapping process
vendor: the vendor associated with the UTMs from the Daasity Channel Mapping process
sub-channel: the sub-channel associated with the UTMs from the Daasity Channel Mapping process
media_type: the media_type associated with the UTMs from the Daasity Channel Mapping process
integration_id: the ID of the integration within the Daasity platform
integration_name: the name of the integration within the Daasity UI
__loaded_at: defines when the record was last loaded into this table
__synced_at: defines when the record was last replicated from the source system into the integration tables
__sync_key: defines a unique key that is created as part of the replication from the source system into the integration tables
