Tealium Learning Center

@awarwick Although Tealium is on the list, Tealium iQ is not affected. The single Tealium domain listed (.tealiumiq.com) is only used for data collection for the server-side platform components (AudienceStream, EventStream). The client-side platform is not affected by this. The reason for the distinction is that no data is collected by Tealium iQ, and it is often used to serve important content such as consent management platforms (including the Tealium consent manager), which can be essential to the operation of a website. Individual vendor tags served through Tealium iQ, may of course still be blocked by disconnect.me, but the core Tealium iQ scripts are not blocked, as they don't collect any data. ... View more

Hi @pedrochristobal, If the data is stored in a first party context relative to the page the user is on, you should be able to pick up that cookie value within the UDO, it'll be called: cp.aam_something So it'll be accessible in extensions as b["cp.aam_something"], and if you add the item to the UDO in TIQ, you'll be able to map it to other tags. If the data is truly a third-party cookie, you won't be able to access it client-side because web security depends upon not being able to access cookies cross-site. Hope that helps. Cheers, James ...

I don't necessarily recommend this, but..... Identify the tag that you want to be portable, and edit its template via the top-right menu. Practically the last line of the tag code should in theory be: }('##UTID##', '##UTLOADERID##')); Replace this with: }(window.portableTagId, (function(u){ for(var k in u.o) return k; })(utag))); Next, in the profile to which that tag usually belongs, add the following pre-loader scoped JS extension: window.portableTagId = 1072; // replace this number with the ID of the tag in this profile In the profile you want the tag to newly appear in, create a new tag, and select "Tealium Custom Container" as the type Under advanced settings, for Custom Script Source, select the full URL of the tag file in its normal location, e.g. https://tags.tiqcdn.com/utag/account/original_profile/prod/utag.1072.js // look up the ID from the profile that owns the tag Make a note of the ID of the new container, and add a pre-loader scoped JS extension as follows: window.portableTagId = 16; // replace this number with the ID of the container tag in this profile And that should. in theory, do it. You can repeat steps 4-6 to put the tag into other profiles if you so wish. What we're doing is effectively instructing the tag to load itself into whichever profile it finds on the page (rather than the hard-coded injection of ##UTLOADERID##), using a dynamic tag ID so that it registers itself against the ID that corresponds to the right config (e.g. load rules) in the profile in which it finds itself. Then in each target profile, you're configuring that dynamic tag ID, and creating a container as a placeholder for the tag against which to create load rules etc. You won't be able to vary tag-scoped extensions between profiles, nor mappings, at least not without some custom code, but it should be sufficient to make a tag portable between compatible accounts (e.g. same UDO etc.) ...

Hi @surabhi_sharma2, If I'm reading this correctly, is the problem that s.clearVars() isn't being run between events, causing values to be persisted through successive events? If so, there should be an option within the tag configuration to clear variables between calls, but if you already have an existing implementation that otherwise works, then be careful enabling it - it could be that other behaviours within your Adobe tag are dependent on not running s.clearVars(), and enabling it might break things that otherwise work, so lots of regression testing required.. ...

I agree that this is functionality that Tealium should provide, but in case anyone wants to try this brutal hack, I've run it through Babel myself and pasted the result here. ... View more

Thank you Unknownj, we wholeheatedly agreed with your sage guidance around querystring references. On July 31st, 2019 an independent  security  researcher on the internet discovered and reported a Tealium S3 bucket that contained CDN logs for a number of Tealium accounts.    In addition to a  security -related post, the researcher reached out to us in good faith and made contact with Tealium Information  Security  Team directly in order to report his findings. The S3 bucket was part of our response to internal requests to process our CDN logs relating to objects we delivered as part of the TMS service.    The logs contain object requests from our CDNs for the TMS files we delivered for you. We are disappointed that this lapse in our manual processes led to the public disclosure of our log files and have taken specific measures to ensure this will not happen again. This was a breakdown in our manual business processes and we can assure you that none of our automated  security  systems were breached and the  security  controls of our platform are not affected. The logs disclose very limited information relating to the objects requested from our CDNs and did not disclose any UDH visitor or event data.    Immediately, access to the affected bucket was removed by Tealium’s Network Operations and  InfoSec  Teams.    This incident was caused by a process breakdown involving human-error that failed to implement our required access controls.     Tealium has performed an extensive audit and has verified all S3 buckets are appropriately permissioned;    and we are focusing on automation and layered controls in order to make sure this doesn’t happen again. We value the trust you put in us and our Services and are working tirelessly to ensure we live up to yours and our own highest expectations.

Just to close the loop on this thread. The best way to implement event tracking without coding your site with calls to utag.view() and utag.link() is to implement a combination of HTML5 data attributes in your page code and the jQuery Extension in iQ.

Hello, The previous reply is correct. What happens is that your page reaches DOM Ready, and the document.write() is invoked, overwriting the entire page with its (invisible) content.  You could do something like this. var attr = { type: "text/javascript", src: "https://cdn.somewhere.com/my/tag.js" }; function scriptWrite(attr){ var head = document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0], script = document.createElement("script"); Object.assign(script,attr); head.appendChild(script); } Of course, since this code will execute asynchronously, you may run into timing issues during execution from an event handler.   ...

@Hi @SKammerlocher    This error can also be caused if you are using the web companion to switch enviroments but are also bundling tags. If this is the case then I would suggest instead of using the web companion to change envriorments to use the Enviroment Switcher Tealium Tool.   https://community.tealiumiq.com/t5/iQ-Tag-Management/Tealium-Tools-Environment-Switcher/ta-p/16027 ...

Hi @davidmolina, I think there are two steps here: Adopt a design pattern that suits your rollout approach, and Migrate to that pattern With that in mind, rather than using a boolean true or false against a single variable, I would instead partition my users with a (randomly assigned) number from 0-99 and use that to drop them into the appropriate treatment. You can get a random number from 0-99 with the following JS expression: Math.floor(100*Math.random()) So let's say you've got a variable test1, which takes value from 0 to 99 - to run a 5% sample, simply use a condition: test1 < 5 Now all you need to do is migrate your existing customers bsased on their wave1 value. You could do that with the following logic: if(wave1 === true){ // wave1 is set and the customer is in the first 5% sample test1 = Math.floor(5*Math.random()); } else if(wave1 === false){ // wave1 is set and the customer is in the 95% remainder test1 = 5 + Math.floor(95*Math.random()); } else { // wave1 isn't set and the customer should be placed at random test1 = Math.floor(100*Math.random()); } This should then give all your existing wave1 members a number from 0-4, all the wave1 non-members a value from 5-99, and all new customers a value from 0-99, evenly distributed. Then you simply need to update your test condition to ensure that the right number of customers are included. Give me a shout if any of that is unclear. Cheers, James ... View more

thanks @UnknownJ Totally agree about the consistent UDO but I am working on an already existing project and hence have to perform hacks in order for things to work :) Also, the scope of the values on different pages is different and hence captured in different UDOs depending on page type ...

I think I need to read through this a few more times, @UnknownJ.  I am particularly intrigued by your example of the prospect of bracketing the privacy manager extension with this custom extension.  Thanks for posting, really enjoy your recipes! ... View more
