How would we set an Adobe Analytics eVar to the value of the cookie set using an Persistent Data Value extension?

I get how to use the Persistent Data Value extension to set the cookie, but how would I then use this to set the eVar it on every session?

Hey Patrick, If you are setting the cookie you can just map that cookie data source to the eVar in the tag mapping. So if you are persisting something like campaign_id simply map campaign_id to eVar23 for example in the mappings. Does this help?

[patrick_heavey]

I think so. Just to confirm, if I map the cookie to an eVar, that will get set on every page load? Thanks.

[james_hartley]

Yes - as long as the cookie is present.

Great, thanks again.
