Hi @dac-cho,
Simple answer:
Use All Page Hits (set) or pageview for session-level scoped dimensions.
Long answer:
The scope of dimensions is configured in the Admin area of your Google Analytics account. Hit-level and scope-level dimensions can be sent from the page using the same code or method. Read more about session-level scope and custom dimensions.
The options in the Event Type drop-down menu correspond to the following Google Analytics usage:
All Page Hits (set) - sent with all hits on a page or the lifetime of the tracker. Google Analytics equivalent:
ga('set', 'dimension5', 'custom data');

pageview - sent with all page view tracking calls (page load or utag.view()) Google Analytics equivalent:
ga('send', 'pageview', { 'dimension5': 'custom data' });
link - sent with all event tracking calls (utag.link()) Google Analytics equivalent:
ga('send', 'event', 'category', 'action', { 'dimension5': 'custom data' });
transaction - sent with order events.
