Do duplicate Event ID serialization event remove hits in data feed?

Hi There,

 

I am looking to implement Event ID serialization on my website however I am curious at how Event ID serializations works in the data feeds and other data?

 

For example if I create a hit that contains a hit with the following:

 

Dimension Value

PageHomepage
Evar20ABC123
Serialized EventDEF456

 

Which the visitor later returns to with a different evar20:

 

Dimension Value

PageHomepage
Evar20ASD432
Serialized EventDEF456

 

Would the entirety of the second hit be ignored (meaning the updated evar would not be seen) or just the serialized event?

 

Thanks

For serialized events only the event value is ignored. Other attributes in the hit are counted. This is not clearly documented, however, this is how I have seen the hits with duplicate events are processed.
