time on site with web sdk

[Michael_Soprano]

How would you do such a use-case that user spent more than 10 sec on some specific site?

Hi Michael,

this sounds more like a tag management task since it supports a Time on Page event type.

and in your case send a custom event type with whatever is needed in Target?

alloy("sendEvent", {
    "renderDecisions": true,
    "xdm": {
    	"eventType": "web.webinteraction.timeOnPage" // whatever makes sense, there is no out of the box event name
    },
    "data": {
        "__adobe": {
            "target": {
                "pageType": "Order Confirmation",
                "timeOnPage": 10,
            }
        }
    }
})

My case is as below:

Session1

User spents more than 10 secs on a specific site

Session 2:

We personalize for that user a banner

How to use that attribute 

 "timeOnPage": 10,

in Audiences?

Custom?

@Michael_Soprano If you want to use it on the next visit, it needs to be passed as a profile parameter, so it is saved to the profile of the user. 

When the profile parameter has been passed, then when creating the segment you'll find it under Visitor Profile.

@kandersen if I pass it with Web SDK to the profile would it be possible to use on the same visit? What is the latency from your experience?

@Michael_Soprano It's available on the next Target request, so you'll be able to use it immediately.

@Michael_Soprano I would achieve this through profile scripts. There's a previous thread here with an example profile script, that you can customize. If it needs to only count on a certain site/section you can include that in the logic for the profile script.
