User ID


IT had no more dev window to implement user id Issue N1



Internal brainstorm with Semetis dev to find solution Step 1

Create a new cookie

Set cookie expirationJavascript to store & encrypt email

How to handle event tracking implementation Issue N2

LOGO



Map all existing events – hardcoded & non hardcoded Step 1


Define a GTM event compliant structure Step 2


onclick="dataLayer.push({'EventCategory': ‘login', 'EventAction': ‘homepage', 'EventLabel': ‘userid', 'event': ‘trackEvent'});">

onclick="dataLayer.push({'EventCategory': ‘addtocart', 'EventAction': ‘productgroup', 'EventLabel': ‘product123', 'event': ‘trackEvent'});">

What Event Category Event Action Event Label Where to fire“Login” button {{EventCategory}} {{EventAction}} {{EventLabel}} When user logs in

“Add to cart” button

{{EventCategory}} {{EventAction}} {{EventLabel}} When user adds product to card

• Define a naming convention

• Keep structure as clean as possible

• Use the same datalayer structure



All events pushed using a single GTM tag Result
