    <description>&lt;P&gt;Thank you very much!&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Yes, the one we are implementing is super simple, but I wanted to see what other use cases I could have... the app push notification one is a great example of a direct entry we don't have the ability to track yet, but I can push my developers to see if it can be included and then have it in the same evar.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;thanks again!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Deeplink tracking best practices</title>
      <link>https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-analytics-questions/deeplink-tracking-best-practices/m-p/462923#M38409</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi! We are in the process of adding deeplink tracking to our mobile and OTT apps and I want to see if anyone can share best practices on how to track them.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;My main questions at the moment are:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;1.-is it recommended we consider the deeplink variable as a new boolean page variable? (just true or false)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;2.- or should we try to add the new variable to an existing page variable, like page template?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;The template doesn't actually change for deeplinking so I am more inclined towards the first option, but I wanted to know if anyone know the best practices here.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;thank you!&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;How you want to report on it will likely drive your decision.. I don't know if there is a handbook for best practices on something like this, since the best part about Adobe is the customization to fit your needs.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;However, in my case, I have set aside an eVar that I call "Direct Entries".. and I actually classify the different types of deep links (push notification, universal link, app links, etc)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;This way my other variables stay clean (since the page isn't actually changing), and I can correlate the pages that have these types of direct entries or classify the entries on their own. Since apps don't have referrers, I can use this information to break out what is driving app usage with a little more clarity (and take it beyond just a simple true/false). You will need to work with your developers to ensure that they can actually identify the different usage of deep links based on their tech stack.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;You're welcome. My general approach to tracking is to look at both the "now" and the potential future needs... While I can never cover all scenarios, we started with Universal Links, but I knew Push would be coming soon, then others..&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Now, I have had things that I originally built with "true/false" type values and after a few years I had to re-work the tracking to accommodate more options, but I try to help people to think about where they think the tracking may go and how it may have to change if certain things come to pass.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Nothing is set in stone, but the more you can plan ahead the better, and I would agree with your instincts that that first option was the better way to go (others might disagree), but also showed how to extend upon.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Good luck with your deep links!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
