�۶���Ƶ

Create a datastream in �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform Data Collection. When you send data to this datastream, it forwards data to �۶���Ƶ Analytics. In the future, this same datastream forwards data to Customer Journey Analytics.

1. Navigate to and log in using your credentials.
2. Use the home page or product selector in the top right to navigate to Data Collection.
3. In the left navigation, select Datastreams.
4. Select New Datastream.
5. Enter the desired name, then select Save.
6. Once the datastream is created, select Add Service.
7. In the service drop-down menu, select �۶���Ƶ Analytics.
8. Enter the same report suite ID as the site you currently send analytics data to. Click Save.

Your datastream is now ready to receive and pass along data to �۶���Ƶ Analytics.

This section prepares your tag for the bulk of the migration effort taking place in the next step.

1. Click the hamburger icon in the top left of the �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform interface, then select Tags.

2. Select the desired tag property.

3. In the left navigation of the tag property, select Extensions.

4. Select Catalog near the top to see a list of all available extensions.

5. Search for and select the �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform Web SDK extension, then click Install on the right.

   

6. The extension configuration settings appear. Locate the Datastreams section, and select the datastream that you created in the previous step.

   

7. Select Save.

Your tag property now has the Web SDK installed.

The data object data element provides an intuitive framework to configure a payload that the Web SDK uses to send to a datastream. Most rules that you update in the following step interact with this data element.

1. In the left navigation of the tags interface, select Data Elements.

2. Select Add Data Element

3. Give the data element the following settings:

   • Name: Anything you’d like, such as “Data layer” or “Data object”
   • Extension: �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform Web SDK
   • Data Element Type: Variable
   • Check boxes can remain as-is

4. On the right, select the following settings:

   • Property radio button: Data
   • Solution: �۶���Ƶ Analytics

5. Select Save.

Your tag property now has everything needed to update each rule.

This step contains the bulk of the effort required to migrate to the Web SDK, and requires knowledge of how your implementation works. An example is provided below as an example of how to edit a typical tag rule. Update all tag rules in your implementation to replace all references to the �۶���Ƶ Analytics extension with the Web SDK extension.

1. In the left navigation of the tags interface, select Rules.

2. Select a rule to edit.

3. Select the action �۶���Ƶ Analytics - Set Variables

4. Note all Analytics variables set within this rule. Include both variables set in the drop-down menus and variables set within custom code.

5. Change the Action Configuration to the following settings:

   • Extension: �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform Web SDK
   • Action type: Update variable

6. Ensure that your data object is selected in the drop-down on the right.

7. Set the Analytics variables to their same respective values as they were configured in the Analytics extension.

   • Variables set within the tags interface can directly translate to the same values.
   • String variables set within custom code require minimal adjustments. Instead of using the s object, use data.__adobe.analytics instead. For example, s.eVar1 would translate to data.__adobe.analytics.eVar1.
   • Analytics configuration variables and method calls in custom code can require modified implementation logic. See each respective variable to determine how to achieve its equivalent using the Web SDK.

8. Once all rule logic is replicated using the Web SDK extension, select Keep Changes.

9. Repeat these steps for every action configuration that uses the �۶���Ƶ Analytics extension to set values. This step includes both variables set using the tags interface and variables set using custom code. Custom code blocks cannot reference the s object anywhere.

The above steps apply only to rules that set values. The following steps replace all actions that use the Action Configuration Send Beacon.

1. Select a rule that sends a beacon.

2. Select the action �۶���Ƶ Analytics - Send Beacon.

3. Note the current value of the Tracking radio button on the right (s.t() or s.tl()).

4. Change the Action Configuration to the following settings:

   • Extension: �۶���Ƶ Experience Platform Web SDK
   • Action type: Send event

5. On the right, change the action settings to the following:

   • Type: For s.t(), use Web Webpagedetails Page Views. For s.tl(), use Web Webinteraction Link Clicks. If you use s.tl(), you must also include the following fields in your data object. These fields are listed under Additional properties when performing the Update variable action configuration:

     • Link name
     • Link type
     • Link URL

6. Select Keep Changes.

7. Repeat these steps for every action configuration that uses �۶���Ƶ Analytics to send a beacon.

Publishing updated rules follows the same workflow as any other change to your tags configuration.

1. In the left navigation of the tags interface, select Publishing Flow.
2. Select Add Library.
3. Give this tag commit a name, such as “Upgrade to Web SDK”.
4. Select Add All Changed Resources.
5. Select Save.
6. The publishing workflow displays an orange dot, indicating that it is building. Once the dot turns green, your changes are available in your development environment.
7. Test your changes in your development environment to ensure that all rules are firing properly, and that the data object is populating with expected values.
8. When ready, submit the library for approval, build to staging, then ultimately approve and publish to production.

Once your tag implementation is fully on the Web SDK, you can disable the �۶���Ƶ Analytics extension.

1. In the left navigation of the tags interface, select Extensions.
2. Locate and select the �۶���Ƶ Analytics extension. On the right, select Disable.
3. Follow the same publishing workflow above to publish the removal of the �۶���Ƶ Analytics extension.
4. Once the extension is disabled in production, you can uninstall it entirely. Select the extension, select the three-dot menu on the right, then select Uninstall.
5. Follow the same publishing workflow above to publish those changes to production.
