Hello Everyone,

How do you all track the previous page name with adobe web sdk? What is the best way to track it? Wondering if we can still use the adobe’s getPreviousValue plug-in with Web SDK?

Appreciate any responses!

Thanks.

I think this works with Websdk - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/analytics/implementation/vars/plugins/getpreviousvalue#install-the-plug-in-using-the-web-sdk-extension

I agree, this should work, since this plugin basically just stores the value as a cookie (with a 30 min expiry), then if the cookie exists track the value, if it doesn't, it assumes this is the first page in the visit and doesn't track a value.

Thank you! I started implementing the getpreviousvalue plugin and noticed we need to set the “cookieName” while creating a data element using Common web sdk plugins extension. Wondering what do i need to mention here for the cookieName?
