Tracking Extract
Tracking extracts provide granular tracking data for import from Email Studio into external systems. Use tracking extracts to export granular data regarding several different aspects of email send jobs, such as clicks, bounces, and survey data, from Marketing Cloud. Then, import that information into an automation or system.

- For a Rolling Range, set the dropdown to 1, 7, 30, 60, or 90 days, to include every time you run the data extension extract.

Data Extension Extract: This data extract type extracts information from a Marketing Cloud data extension and places it in a delimited file.
Automation Studio Errors and Notifications: Add your email address so that you are notified when a Marketing Cloud automation’s run is skipped, encounters an error, or completes in Automation Studio.
Send Logs: Send logging gives you access to data not available via standard tracking functions and to obtain run-time information about email send attributes for use in reports and data extracts. To use send logging, create a data extension using the send logging template. Each account can use one template and data extension for email messages and one template and data extension for SMS messages. Each data extension includes required fields with values used to identify the send, subscriber, and other information.
