Tracking with Cordova android plugin

[shuchita]

Hi,

I have added plugin to my hybrid app. Also included the tealium.track(view) events as below:

tealium.track("view", // "view" or "link"

                                    {   "screen_title" :"xyz",

                                        "screenPath":"/xyz"

                                          }, 

                                    "tealiumtest" 

                                    );

Below script adds a view event in the event section of Live tracking for GA dashboard for iOS app with page name under view catergory. But for Android it only displays the screen_title  in the active page views section.

In android I aaded below script to track click events:

tealium.track("link", // "view" or "link"

                                    { 

                                         "link_id":"xyz"/// eneterd page name here

                                         "appEventCategory" :"xyz",

                                        "appEventLabel":"xyx"

                                         " appEventAction":''click"

                                          }, 

                                    "tealiumtest" 

                                    );

This script after adding link_id shows the page name events under event section but under event category "activity". where as link_id is not required for iOS app.

Please help how to get a page vie events for Android app under View as Event Category.

Hi @shuchita. I am trying to find you some assistance. Thank you for your patience.

To update this Forum post, we've picked this up as a Support Ticket in EMEA.

There are a couple of issues contributing this that we've found so far:

1. The mappings on the Tag are as follows:

tealium_event_type -> eventAction

tealium_event -> eventCategory

2. Our iOS SDK seems to pre-populate tealium_event with the value of screen_title, whereas the Android SDK does not does this, and defaults the tealium_event to "view" / "link" 

As a result, whilst both the Android SDK and iOS SDK are triggering page view events, the values of EventAction and Event Category are differing.

The same is true for the link_id as described by Shuchita's post.
