For a custom configuration, there could be additional parameters within the tag URL, the expected values of which relate to the data being collected from the website. However, if there are supplied parameters for which the parsing of a relevant value is not possible, the parameter and accompanying placeholder macro can be removed from the tag URL. If there are no additional parameters supplied within this specific tag bundle, then the marketer has not expressed a wish to collect additional data, therefore no further configuration is required.
When implementing a tag with standard (or custom) parameters, the marketer's tag management team should parse the expected variable value (as specified by the parameter's placeholder macro), from the marketer's CRM platform or TMS upon HTML document render, completely replacing the parameter's placeholder macro.
For example,
The supplied parameter & placeholder macro:
&CustID={customerId}
Upon HTML render:
&CustID=970033140789446465
In some cases, there may be more than one value to pass in for a parameter. In this case, it is acceptable to use a string delimiter, not including ampersand(&), to separate the values such as a comma or pipe delimiter.
For example,
The supplied parameter & placeholder macro:
&productID={productID}
Upon HTML render:
&productID=AC123,BD456,EF789
The following are examples of additional parameters that may be included in your tag. Please consult with your Zeta contact for specifically requested parameters when applicable.
