Best method to capture s_vi value into an evar via DTM?

Hi,

I tried to capture the s_vi value into an evar via DTM by using the below method. for eg: s.eVar1 ="D=s_vi". so, on the report it would looik like this s.eVar1= [CS]v1|2BD5A23B8SDA7B83D-600001104001554B[CE] . But, i do see few values without [CS]v1 at the beginning eg: 241579947650856531231389954089219320735 . Not sure, if this value is from s_fid. If yes, would like to understand better why im getting s_fid value into an eVar1 as im just copying dynamic value(D=s_vi) value into and evar.

Is there any better approach to capture s_vi value into an eVar using DTM.

Thanks,

Muthu

    Hi ,

    Please find below my comments inline to your queries. 

    1) if i need to capture MCVID cookie value into an evar, i thought, i can follow the same approach for eg: s.eVarxx=_satellite.readCookie("mid"); ? Is that correct? - For Capturing the Marketing Cloud Visitor ID value in an eVar  you can use the out of the box function available i.e. s.eVarXX =_satellite.getVisitorId().getMarketingCloudVisitorID(); 

    2) When we go with this approach(s.eVar1=_satellite.readCookie("s_vi")); if for some reason s_vi value is not set on the page then what we would get in the report. None?? or will get fid value in eVar1 report. - Yes, you would get NONE in the report

    Thanks & Regards

    Hi ,

     Dynamic variables are not supported in conjunction with cookies (s_cc, s_sq, s_fid, s_vi and any cookie that is set by a plugin). You can not use D=<cookie value>. Can you please verify it once more whether data is being populated to eVar 1 using Dynamic variables . If yes, Please share the URL of your Website as well as Adobe Analytics UI credentials  in a private message so that we can also look into the same.

    https://marketing.adobe.com/resources/help/en_US/sc/implement/dynvars_overview.html

    Also, The Analytics visitor ID is contained in the s_vi cookie, and can be retrieved on the using the cookie read function: _satellite.readCookie("s_vi") i.e. s.eVar1=_satellite.readCookie("s_vi");

    Thanks & Regards

    I use the custom page code:

    s.eVarXX = s.Util.cookieRead('s_vi').slice(7,40);

    Thanks Parit & Ian Whyte. Will try this and update the findings.

    Few other questions. It would be great if you could provide your thoughts.

    1) if i need to capture MCVID cookie value into an evar, i thought, i can follow the same approach for eg: s.eVarxx=_satellite.readCookie("mid"); ? Is that correct?

    2) When we go with this approach(s.eVar1=_satellite.readCookie("s_vi")); if for some reason s_vi value is not set on the page then what we would get in the report. None?? or will get fid value in eVar1 report.

    thanks in advance.
