Tag Labels

Overview

As well as capturing Events, you can also capture labels.

Labels are very versatile and can be used to capture a wide variety of data. As an example, you can use labels to capture a visitor's gender and date of birth, or event their non-event related activities, such as their choices on a product configuration page.

You must define the label's type, key, and value.

Types

There are 5 label types, and the type must be defined in the label push.

  • Int
  • Float
  • String
  • Bool
  • Datetime

Commands

To add a new label, you must use the correct command. The label type commands are as follows:

  • addIntLabel Adds an integer label. Can be captured as either string or number.
  • addFloatLabel Adds a float label. Can be captured as either string or number.
  • addStringLabel Adds a string label. Must be captured as a string.
  • addBoolLabel Adds a boolean label. Can be either a boolean or a string - any value other than "false" resolves as true.
  • addDatetimeLabel Adds a Date/Time label. Must be an ISO 8601 formatted date.

The syntax for capturing labels is as follows: 

vscr.push(["Label Type", "Key", "Value"])

For example: 

vscr.push(["addIntLabel", "my_intLabel1", "42"]) 
vscr.push(["addIntLabel", " my_intLabel2", 42])  
vscr.push(["addFloatLabel", " my_floatLabel1", 123.45]) 
vscr.push(["addFloatLabel", " my_floatLabel2", "123.45"])  
vscr.push(["addStringLabel", " my_stringLabel", "str value"])  
vscr.push(["addDatetimeLabel", " my_dateLabel1", "2015-11-16"]) 
vscr.push(["addDatetimeLabel", " my_dateLabel2", "2015-11-16T22:23:48+00:00"])
vscr.push(["addBoolLabel", "my_boolLabel", "true"])
