Scraping the data and keeping utag_data unchanged

Good morning,

We have different data objects on our domains, with different names for the properties to associate to our Tealium Data Layer.

Right now, we have multiple Javascript extensions we use as scrapers for the variables, and we load them in each utag.x.js Tag (so, we update only the b object).

We are moving towards a more "universal" scraper to handle all the different variables, scoped to "All Tags, Before Load Rules" and we are starting to request correctly populated utag_data variable for new pages. We can't modify already existing pages, so we're stuck with old implementations of data objects to handle too.

 

We would like to know what could be the best way to implement this solution, and if it's possible to scrape for utag_data without the utag modifying it (so, keeping it as it was declared in page)

 

Thanks,

Francesco

Hi @fracalella


I would recommend raising a support case for this to be looked at specifically.  With any data scraping it needs very specific configuration. 


Many thanks
