mid is missing in one of the subdomains but exist in the others

Dear Community,

 

Can you please help with troubleshooting ECID?

We have some websites (domain and subdomains) with the same setup in Adobe Launch for Adobe analytics and ECID.

But one of the subdomains doesn't get ECID resolved, and therefore FID is used by AA.

 

The AMCV and s_fid cookies are getting set together at the same time (screenshot attached), In this case, the mid never gets sent to AA.

 



Would really appreciate it if someone already faced this issue and can share the resolution.

Thanks.

Just out of curiosity, you are sure that your "%hostname%" data element is being properly set?

 

You should be able to test this on the front end of your site by opening up the browser console, and running the following script:

 

 

_satellite.getVar('hostname');

 

 

If you aren't familiar with using the console, you can type JS code next to the blue chevron and hit enter to execute:

If "Hostname" is set, the value should appear underneath, if not, it might come back as nothing or undefined.

 

 

I just want to be sure first off that this subdomain and ECID opt-in is properly configured. It's probably okay, but it doesn't hurt to check

 

Update: I should note that Data Elements are case sensitive (hostname is different from HostName or Hostname or hostName < different variations of case formatting)

Are you using all the most recent versions of the Launch Extensions... including Analytics? Or are you self-hosting your AppMeasurement file... that version looks quite old.... my AppMeasurement is generated from the Analytics extension, and is version 2.23.0.. (whereas yours is only 2.9.0).....it could be a compatibility issue as you have suggested?


Hi Jennifer,
Sorry for the late response, I was troubleshooting in different directions, Yesterday I tried to update the AppMeasurement and got a new param in the hit (vidn) but mid was still missing, 

so I tried again to make Opt-In = No and the mid appears in the hit! And that's strange, because I tried this thing before, and it didn't work.

So what may be the case now if the issue is regarding the Opt-In?
