Hey @aepaa 

 

Use this instead if you want to use ACDL and implement a clean setup. 

 

This link contains a video which explains an alternate but much more convenient approach to ACDL implementation.

The link you posted goes to a 404 page.  Can you provide more context, screenshots, etc.

Hey @aepaa 

Thanks for the link.

 

We would need more than the link to Adobe documentation. There can be multiple reasons for a data element not giving you the expected value. 

 

How is your data element configured ? How are you triggering the rule etc. Are you using the WKND site ?

 

Please provide more details for us to provide a relevant response.

 

Cheers,

Abhinav

If you have a choice, don't use AEM's integration with ACDL. The way it gives unique identifiers for every single key is... well, I can only think of a politically incorrect term to describe that approach.

I've written my opinion here: https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-analytics-questions/how-to-capture-data-from-component-state-through-events-using/m-p/544545/highlight/true#M38979, with the suggestion that you come up with your own ACDL implementation.

Also, I have been facing a other problem where, the implementation fires 2 cmp:click event for clicking once.

 

 

For the other choice you said..

I have choice of firing a rule using event based . I mean a core extension link click ( capturing anchor tag click) .

  • I have to write a code event.target to link clicked text and url.
  • As we don't have any particular attribute for the links. 

Can Anyone, suggest me what could be the best thing I can do. Since, the website is AEM integration with ACDL..
