Video Initiates on which page?

Avatar

Level 2

Hi,

I'm trying to find out on which pages videos have been watched. I have an evar for video(title) and the standard page and video initiates. It seems video initiates doesn't work at all with pages. 

Does somebody know how to get this - without building/implementing a workaround?

Thanks,

Sebastian

Depending on how you are sending the call for th video initiate.  If you are using custom link tracking, try sending the pagename through in a prop at the same time.  Then you can easily break down the video title py the pagename.

The pagename does not get passed through as a pageview on custom link tracking, hence the need to populate the page name in a prop.
