Flicker Management on Adobe Target with AEP Web SDK

[Kishore_Reddy]

Hello Experts,

Hope everyone is doing well.

Can you help me understanding more around flicker management with AEP Web SDK? With general deployment of Adobe Target Extension on Adobe Launch, we can setup opacity and pre-hiding script. However, I would like to know about functionality with Web SDK. 

If anyone has already implemented Web SDK, please shed some light around flickers or any challenges you may have seen.

Best,

Kishore

@Kishore_Reddy This is available in AEP Web SDK. You can refer here for details - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-platform/edge/personalization/manage-flicker.html.... This is implemented through Web SDK Adobe Launch extension. Documentation says it is the same approach, but in my experience, Web SDK always has its own surprises. We are implementing this week and will keep you posted if any surprises.

Thank you, @pradeep_nextrow 

Really appreciate and looking forward to knowing your observations on the implementation & repercussions on performance.

Just wanted to say that the approach to flicker management is the same with Web SDK, but the prehiding snippet itself is different, so that would need to be updated as part of your migration from at.js to Web SDK. It's discussed in this Web SDK tutorial: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/platform-learn/implement-web-sdk/applications-setup/setup-ta...

Hi @pradeep_nextrow  We have implemented Adobe Target through Web SDK and added pre-hiding snippet.

The order is : Pre hiding snippet  (in the head section)

                     Launch Web SDK (in the head section)

                     data layer ( in body section )

Observation :

There is a flicker in the first visit but post page refresh the flicker is not at all present.

Can someone suggest if we are missing some configuration here ?
