Which data view is used to view email open events in Marketing Cloud?

• A. _Open data view
• B. _Sent data view
• C. _Subscribers data view
• D. _PublicationSubscriber data view

Answer: (A)

Open data view logs each time a recipient opens an email, capturing who opened it and when. This makes it the right source to view email open events because it’s specifically designed to track those interactions, so you can measure engagement at the individual and aggregate levels. You can use it to see open counts, timing, and relationships to particular sends or subscribers by joining with other data views as needed. The other data views serve different purposes: the _Sent view contains information about emails that were sent, not who opened them; the _Subscribers view holds subscriber profile details; and the _PublicationSubscriber view relates to publications and publication lists rather than open events.
