Hi Aleks,

Have you looked into the s.abort option to prevent the beacon from firing?

Best,

The s.abort variable

A com­mon ques­tion dur­ing my time in Client­Care (what seems like many years ago!) was, “What do I do if I want to pre­vent a bea­con (i.e., image request) from occur­ring?” There are a few rea­sons why this might be rel­e­vant. Some com­pa­nies have expe­ri­enced instances where some­one has copied their source HTML code, includ­ing their Site­Cat­a­lyst imple­men­ta­tion, and deployed it some­where else with­out chang­ing ref­er­ences to report suite IDs, so that traf­fic to unre­lated sites begins to pol­lute ana­lyt­ics data. Oth­ers have spe­cific cri­te­ria for mea­sure­ment and are only inter­ested in fir­ing off track­ing code if those cri­te­ria are met (such as the pres­ence of a cer­tain cam­paign value or suc­cess event).

With the lat­est ver­sion of Adobe Ana­lyt­ics JavaScript App­Mea­sure­ment code, we have intro­duced a new vari­able called s.abort. When s.abort is set to ‘true’ (s.abort = true), the track­ing bea­con will not fire. This vari­able is designed to be imple­mented inside of the s.doPlugins() func­tion, since this func­tion is among the last to run before a bea­con is fired and thus has the most infor­ma­tion avail­able to it regard­ing vari­ables that have or have not been set, cur­rent state of the page, etc. Here is an exam­ple of a case where the com­pany does not want to fire a bea­con and count a page view if both s.campaign and s.events are not set:

s.doPlugins = function(s) {
s.campaign = s.getQueryParam("cid");
if ((!s.campaign) && (!s.events)) {
s.abort = true;
}
};

First, they attempt to set s.campaign using the “cid” query string para­me­ter. Then, if it turns out that “cid” did not exist, and there was no value for s.events, they set s.abort = true and this pre­vents the Site­Cat­a­lyst track­ing code from fir­ing. This will pre­vent any data from being recorded in this instance; had either of those two cri­te­ria been met, the bea­con would have fired and a Page View would have been recorded.

Note that you will need to down­load the lat­est s_code.js file from the Admin Con­sole in order to use s.abort.
