Dynamically Populate Value In dataLayer
While checking about dataLayer I came across: https://www.optimizesmart.com/google-tag-manager-data-layer-explained-like-never/
Example of dataLayer
On any web page test yourself by pasting the code
1.Paste the following code
<script>
var dataLayer = {
‘pageName’: document.title,
‘pageURL’: document.URL
};
</script>
You can check these in console via
- dataLayer.PageName
- datLayer.pageURL
2.If you paste the following:
<script>
dataLayer = [{
‘pageCategory’: ‘Statistics’,
‘visitorType’: ‘high-value’
}];
</script>
You can check these in console via
- dataLayer[0].pageCategory
- dataLayer[0].visitorType
3.If you paste the following :
<script>
dataLayer = [{
‘pageCategory’: ‘Statistics’,
‘visitorType’: ‘high-value’
},
{‘nameA’:’salena’,
‘nameB’:’gomes’
}];
</script>
You can check these in console via
- dataLayer[0].pageCategory
- dataLayer[0].visitorType
- dataLayer[1].nameA
- dataLayer[1].nameB
4.

5.
digitalData.page = {};
digitalData.page.pageInfo = {};
digitalData.page.pageInfo.pageName = “Electronics>Computers>MacbookPro:ProductDetails”;
6.
digitalData.page={
pageInfo:{
pageName:”HomePage”,
},
category:{
pageType:”Home”,
primaryCategory:”Home”,
subCategory1:”n/a”,
subCategory2:”n/a”
}
}

How to track the amount of time between two different Adobe analytics events
In order to track the amount of time between two different
I believe this plugin is not
In case you are not willing to work with Adobe Consulting then you can develop your own custom solution.
You can set a cookie when the first event is fired, in that cookie set the time stamp as t1 and when the second event fire set the timestamp as t2. Calculate the time difference between t1 and t2 and populate the value analytics variable.
Steps For Data Cleaning Using Python
Uploading Data through data source using Adobe Analytics API 1.4
This is to test that what happen to data sources FTP location when data source data is uploaded through API 1.4 using postman
1.Create the data source through Analytics UI
- Login to SC 15
- Click on Admin->Data Sources
2.Create Transaction ID data sources
3.Using Postman send POST request on https://api.omniture.com/admin/1.4/rest/?method=DataSources.UploadData
4.In Pre-request Script
var uuid = function() {};
uuid.v4 = function() {
return ‘xxxxxxxx-xxxx-4xxx-yxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx’.replace(/[xy]/g, function(c) { var r = Math.random()*16|0, v = c == ‘x’ ? r : (r&0x3|0x8); return v.toString(16); });
};
var WSSE = function(username, secret) {
this.username = username;
this.secret = secret;
};
WSSE.prototype.getHeader = function() {
var nonce = uuid.v4();
var created = new Date().toISOString();
var hashString = nonce + created + this.secret;
var digest = CryptoJS.SHA256(hashString).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64);
var b64nonce = CryptoJS.enc.Latin1.parse(nonce).toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64);
var header = “UsernameToken”;
header += ” Username=\”” + this.username + “\”,”;
header += ” PasswordDigest=\”” + digest + “\”,”;
header += ” Nonce=\”” + b64nonce + “\”,”;
header += ” Created=\”” + created + “\”,”;
header += ” Algorithm=\”SHA256\””;
return { ‘X-WSSE’: header };
};
var wsse = new WSSE(‘shared secret’, ‘password’);
postman.setEnvironmentVariable(“x-wsse”, wsse.getHeader()[‘X-WSSE’])
5.Under body
{
“columns”: [
“Date”,
“Product”,
“Orders”,
“transactionID”
],
“dataSourceID”: “2”,
“jobName”: “Product returned”,
“reportSuiteID”: “lscsgeekourpc”,
“rows”: [
[
“01/11/2019/06/00/00”,
“Shirt”,
“1”,
“1235”
]
]
}
6.Under Header set WSSE

Result:

For API 1.4 documentation
Note :Grab the data source ID from the URL when you open the data source in UI
Once it appears true as result than in FTP of Data source a SOAP folder is created which have a file of data source, later on, which process.
Processing pauses if the size exceeds 50 MB and does not resume until the total is below 50 MB. To limit delays in generating reports, do not upload more than 90 days of data per day.
