Adobe Analytics in DTM

[davidb98884514]

Hello,

I'm finding that implementing our code in the Adobe Analytics console takes a very long time, because we have many pages and variables for each page. I tried to copy our current page code in the editor, but it won't let me because of unexpected tokens.

Here's an example of the type of page tag we are trying to place in DTM:

Please let me know if there is an easier way to implement the tags in DTM. My site is UniversalOrlando.com. Thank you!

David,

Did you have the script set to Javascript instead of HTML?  If so, that might be why: the code you pasted above includes HTML elements so it would cause the Javascript parser to throw up an error.

That said, simply pasting your old code into DTM may work, but it's not the best way to make use of DTM's capabilities.  Ideally you would be identifying groups of pages or scenarios where a set of variables (like the ones above) would be set, create a rule for that page group/scenario, and then use the native integration for Adobe Analytics and the supplied fields in the UI to set those variables, like this:

Hope this helps!
