To determine if a specific text string exists in a tab-delimited list of values, the BuildRowSetFromString AMPscript function is the most appropriate. This function splits the string into a rowset, making it easier to search for the specific text.

BuildRowSetFromString Function: This function converts a delimited string into a rowset, which can then be iterated over or searched using other AMPscript functions.

SET @values = "val1\tval2\tval3" SET @rowset = BuildRowSetFromString(@values, "\t") SET @rowCount = RowCount(@rowset) SET @found = "false" FOR @i = 1 TO @rowCount DO SET @row = Row(@rowset, @i) SET @value = Field(@row, 1) IF @value == "specificText" THEN SET @found = "true" /* exit the loop if found */ BREAK ENDIF NEXT @i

Salesforce AMPscript Function Reference

Regarding Populations in Contact Builder:

Populations need to be added to an Attribute Group (B) - This is necessary to define the relationship between the population and the associated data extensions and attributes.

No more than three Populations should be created (C) - Creating more than three populations can lead to performance issues and complexity in managing contacts.

When preparing data to be used in Contact Builder, the following factors should be taken into consideration:

Assigning data relationships and primary keys across all channels (A) - This ensures that data is linked properly and can be utilized across different marketing channels.

Verifying data address marketing needs (B) - Ensuring that the data aligns with the marketing goals and requirements.

Normalizing data to reduce redundancy (E) - Organizing the data to eliminate duplicate entries and improve efficiency.

A Contact can be reintroduced into the system only after the deletion is fully complete. The Contact Delete process in Salesforce Marketing Cloud is designed to ensure that all references and data associated with the contact are thoroughly removed. Reintroducing the contact before the process is fully complete would disrupt this cleanup process and potentially lead to data integrity issues.
