Page
The page method tracks the visitor's current context on a website. This context is used for both analytics ("track the number of views to the checkout page") and targeting ("run this experiment on the checkout page"). See Pages and URL targetsPages and URL targets.
Specifically, pushing a page has two effects:
- Web Experimentation tracks a pageview event for this page, incrementing the count of views to that page in analytics and recording the event in the user's behavioral profile.
- Any campaigns targeted to this page will be activated.
Pages can be created visually in Web Experimentation with URL targeting, but this API call lets you manually activate a page. This allows full flexibility for sites with dynamic content or challenging URL patterns.
Page information is reset whenever the browser reloads.
