Hey @aepaa 

 

Use this instead if you want to use ACDL and implement a clean setup. 

 

This link contains a video which explains an alternate but much more convenient approach to ACDL implementation.

The link you posted goes to a 404 page.  Can you provide more context, screenshots, etc.

      Hey @aepaa 

      Thanks for the link.

       

      We would need more than the link to Adobe documentation. There can be multiple reasons for a data element not giving you the expected value. 

       

      How is your data element configured ? How are you triggering the rule etc. Are you using the WKND site ?

       

      Please provide more details for us to provide a relevant response.

       

      Cheers,

      Abhinav

        If you have a choice, don't use AEM's integration with ACDL. The way it gives unique identifiers for every single key is... well, I can only think of a politically incorrect term to describe that approach.

        I've written my opinion here: https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-analytics-questions/how-to-capture-data-from-component-state-through-events-using/m-p/544545/highlight/true#M38979, with the suggestion that you come up with your own ACDL implementation.

          With you on it @yuhuisg 


          The AEM integration is convoluted.

           

          As you mentioned in your thread, much better to do your own acdl setup.
