Hi Yabagna,

Direct Call Rules are Designed to bypass dynamic tag management event detection and lookup systems.

Direct call rules are ideal for situations where you want to tell dynamic tag management exactly what is happening. Also, they are ideal when dynamic tag management cannot detect an event in the DOM, such as with Adobe Flash.

(http://microsite.omniture.com/t2/help/en_US/dtm/index.html#Rules)

And How to create conditions for direct-call rules.

In the Conditions dialog, specify the string that will be passed to _satellite.track() in your direct call.

Let me know if it helps you give it a heart and you can mark it as closed.

Thanks

Hi Robert,

I did thank you very much. But now i have a bigger issue, and maybe you can help me on this :)

What we are looking for is a way to suppress the blank tag that is currently firing when we have an event based rule with enters view port event value and that is set to be a stl() call.     

I was told to add "return false" to the adobe tool cutomize code, but using "return false;" in the tool settings does not work for us, because what this does is not firing all the page load rules in the property. So we wanted to find a way or a script to accomplish this without losing any of our rules.

 

I also see this error in the console:

SATELLITE: Rule "About" fired. satelliteLib-8c14bca156f56151e6caeae85e8618a61883c62c-staging.js:2

Is there a way to avoid the beacon from being suppresed?

Hi,

How can i set a direct rule to fire only when the body id is equal to "enter"?

I tried this with a event based rule but it does not work , the tag fires two times. So i want to know how can I create the string for the direct call rule?

 

regards,
