Tracking Form Abandonment

August 21, 2018August 20, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 1 Comment

We used to have a plugin for Analytics that would allow people to track form abandonment. It was -wait for it- abandoned somewhere around the move from s_code.js to AppMeasurement.js. If you want to find out where in your forms people give up, you have to improvise come up with a solution yourself. The following … Continue reading Tracking Form Abandonment

How to debug Launch, by Adobe

August 7, 2018July 27, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 3 Comments

DTM is quite a bit easier to use and handle than Launch is. Partly, Launch is new and we are all on the upwards slope of the learning curve. Partly, Launch opens up whole new worlds. For those of you working with/in DTM and/or Launch, this is a pretty cool time. I once wrote about … Continue reading How to debug Launch, by Adobe

July 31, 2018July 19, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 6 Comments

Wait? What? How can this be part 4? Where are parts 1 through 3? I am very liberally counting things, disregarding slight differences in titles, and tools, so the previous parts are: With DTM you don’t need Plugins! – Part 1 With DTM you don’t need Plugins! – Part 2 With DTM you don’t need … Continue reading With Launch, you don’t need doPlugins! – Part 4

Accessing Adobe I/O using Java

July 3, 2018June 13, 2019 ~ Jan Exner ~ 1 Comment

You might remember how, a couple of years ago, I was whining about how the authentication on the Reporting API was difficult. At the time, I wrote some Java code that was able to log into it, and I have been using that code, more or less unchanged, for a long time. Now, all APIs … Continue reading Accessing Adobe I/O using Java

Nitpick: Launch does not support Page Load Rules

June 19, 2018June 5, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

I was reading Jim Gordon's excellent article on Adobe DTM vs. Launch a while back. If you haven't read it, do. It is excellent. While reading it, I started to think about one aspect, and how I think there is an awesome opportunity for a nitpick in it: Jim (and most people I know) say … Continue reading Nitpick: Launch does not support Page Load Rules

Launch – Make an Extension on a Mac

May 15, 2018May 14, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

Today we are "extending" the "Launch - Make an Extension" mini series. This article arose out of a lab I ran at the Adobe Summit in London. There is a lot of overlap, but two major differences, too: 1. This article walks you through building an Extension on a Mac and using Visual Studio Code … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension on a Mac

The Mechanics of Loading Analytics Code with DTM

May 1, 2018April 27, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

Yes, I know, Launch. But I had this post in the pipeline for some time now, and here you go. As a bonus, I have noted where Launch, by Adobe, handles things differently. If you came here from my "battle post", then this is some background that'll help you understand why I wrote the other … Continue reading The Mechanics of Loading Analytics Code with DTM

Launch – Make an Extension – Debugging

January 30, 2018January 29, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 6 Comments

Here comes part 3 of the mini series on "Making a Launch Extension". We looked at the setup and the coding. Today we discuss debugging. I'm sure you are way better than me when it comes to writing HTML and Javascript, but I'm also sure whatever you write is unlikely to work first time round. … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Debugging

Launch – Make an Extension – Coding

January 23, 2018January 23, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 4 Comments

Part 2 of the "Make a Launch Extension" mini series is about the actual coding. You can find the other parts here: setup, debug, publish. This article is split in two parts, aligned with the two different parts the extension has to provide: UI and actual JS code. Let's start with the UI. UI Your … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Coding

Launch – Make an Extension – Setup

January 16, 2018January 23, 2018 ~ Jan Exner ~ 6 Comments

Welcome to part 1 of our mini series of "Make a Launch Extension". This part is about the setup. There are (or will be) parts on coding, debugging, and eventually on publishing the extension.. node.js / npm Before you can start developing a Launch Extension, you need to install node.js. I will not go into … Continue reading Launch – Make an Extension – Setup
