Tracking Code Concatination

Avatar

Level 2

How does the Tracking Code behave if a user enters (within one session) with multiple values? In other words, are they concatened somehow?

 

For instance, if we read it from parameter tid and got the following journey:

1. calls mydomain.com/?tid=23

2. calls mydomain.com/?tid=47

 

Generates that then a Tracking Code "23,47" in the report?

@Clemens - Based on the above scenario, I'd see two separate line items in the Tracking Code report:

23

47

given that the values from the query string parameter is captured in s.campaign variable (Tracking Code). So, as a user visits the site calls mydomain.com/?tid=23, s.campaign=23 will be passed. Likewise, s.campaign=47 will be passed in the next server call.

OK, then there must be something in our implementation. Thanks a lot.

In admin under conversion variables check to see the s.camapign variable has been setup for Allocation most recent and you don`t have do not reset checked on.

 

Might be just evar settings causing multiple items to be captured as users progress multiple visits.

We have most recent with 1 week validity. So that can't be the cause.
