Adobe Experience Cloud ID Service Tag Setup Guide

[#1]

Adobe's Experience Cloud ID Service tag generates unique identifiers, called Cloud ID, for your site visitors. A Cloud ID makes it possible to share and track data for a visitor across your Experience Cloud Solutions. This article describes how to configure the tag in your iQ Tag Management (TiQ) profile.

It is crucial to load the Cloud ID Service tag prior to other Adobe tags (such as Appmeasurement, JavaScript, and Heartbeat) that require Cloud ID. Bundle the tag on all pages and place it above all other Adobe tags in the Tags tab. This is the best way to ensure that the Cloud ID is accessible before other Adobe tags load on the page.
