Hi @moudar 

 

fid is legacy method of identifying unique visitor, my suggestion is to implement Experience Cloud ID service.

 

For Capturing fid value in eVar/prop you need to assign fid value to the eVar/prop. Below is an example

s.eVar1 = s.fid;
s.prop1 = s.fid;

 

Note : Make sure you enabled 'Make tracker globally accessible' option

You can also just use Dynamic Variables:

 

D=fid 

 

In your eVar or prop declaration...

 

This will tell Adobe during processing to take whatever value is in fid, and apply the same value to your eVar/Prop

If you are using Launch, you can add it right into the set Variables:

Since you want this on all pages, you can add right into the Extension set variables (or you could add to all your rules.. it's really up to you.

 

If you are setting this using Javascript files, if you are using "doPlugins" you can add it inside there, and if not, you can add it where you set some of the settings:

 

s.prop1 = "D=fid";
