Hi, I am working on criteo tags for our website, we need to map Transaction ID for a product, but inside data sources -> select destination, there isnt any related destination to that variable. Can I add a data destination?

Hi Ali,

If you have the e-commerce extension configured, you do not need to do anything; it will set the transaction ID automatically.

If, however, you wish to override the e-commerce extension mapping, you can manually enter "order_id" into the text field next to the data source name. This will force the mapped data source to override the order ID. I'm not sure why this isn't shown in the mapping toolbox by default, so I've created a request internally to get it added.

Please see here for a detailed guide on the Criteo tag: Criteo OneTag Setup and Configuration

Hi Craig, I looked into the guide you sent me for criteo. It says inside: What Happened to trackTransaction? Tealium automatically sets this Event for you. Which is why I asked which destination should Transaction ID link to. After reading that, I have a couple of questions. Do I still need to fire that event inside Extensions? Should I link variables to destinations for trackTransaction? I still don't see Order ID inside destinations? I was asked by criteo that I need to implement trackTransaction on our site.

Hi Ali,

If you are using the e-commerce extension, the trackTransaction event will be set automatically for you, and the transaction ID will be picked up from the e-commerce extension (no need to map it).

If you wish to override the order ID, you can map to "order_id" (just enter order_id into the mapping destination manually). For more info on the e-commerce extension, please read this article: E-commerce Extension Installation and Setup.

If you have any more questions, please let me know.
