Don't send event if the eVarX value is the same as last time

Hey Community.
I'm currently looking for a look alike of getValOnce functionality.

Context: 
When my users are processing an internal search, an event1 is being triggered once he land on search page results. If the user click on a product page, and then go back to the search page results the event1 will be trigger again.


My question is the following:
Is there any way to not send an event (here the event1) a second time if the keyword (eVarX) value hasn't changed since last time?

 

Thanks a lot for your help here.

You could set a flag in sessionStorage or localStorage when event1 occurs. Then, you can read that back with a data element as a condition for whether you want to track event1 again.
