__view__ decision scope , is it returned by default?

I do not send __view__ decision scope but the form-based activity from Target is returned (the one with target-global-mbox). If I set up page view event like that, does that mean that __view__ decision scope is returned by default? How that works?

Hi @michael_soprano 

the __view__ scope is equivalent to the classic global-mbox and is afaik implicitly set.

Cheers from Switzerland!

From my experience, you have to manually set the "__view__" scope in order to send the data to Target.

You can do it by manually entering the scope as a string or as a Data element.

 

The "__view__" scope is a general one, so it will render in any page. If you need your activity to only render in one specific URL or for a specific use case, I will use a different scope. 

 

For example, for "categoryAffinity", I need to pass the "entity.categoryId" in all my pageViwes, so I will pass that info with a "__view__" scope, otherwise, if I need to only know "lastPurchasedItem", I will only use the "lastPurchasedItem" scope in the purchase Send Event. 

 

Hope that helped.
