Configuring the Tag
- Title (Required): Enter a descriptive title to identify the Tag instance.
- Account ID (Optional): Enter the numeric ID associated with your ChannelAdvisor Account. For example:
10055350
You can choose to dynamically populate the Account ID (also called Profile ID) field by mapping to the pid
parameter.
Applying Load Rules
Load Rules determine when and where to load an instance of this tag. The Load on All Pages rule is the default Load Rule. To load this Tag on a specific page, create a new load rule with the relevant conditions.
Best practice: Set up load rule conditions to load this tag on the order confirmation page of your site. This will allow the tag to capture the order information following a conversion.
Setting up Mappings
Mapping is the simple process of sending data from a data source, in your Data Layer, to the matching destination variable of the vendor tag. The destination variables for this tag are available in the Mapping toolbox.
- pid: Map to this variable to dynamically set the numeric ID of your ChannelAdvisor account.
Note: Make certain that the E-Commerce Extension is configured to automatically map the order and product variables. However, you can override the E-Commerce Extension mappings with their corresponding destination variables listed in the toolkit.
