Ensighten Tag Manager

If your site uses Ensighten Tag Manager to implement third-party tags such as the Bloomreach's Pixel, we have created this guide to help you implement our Pixel specification.

Bloomreach will provide you a list of Tags and Variables to add to your Ensighten container to help get you started.

It will be your responsibility:

  • For each Bloomreach tag, associate the proper triggers needed for the tag specification as provided in the tag's notes section.
  • For each Bloomreach variable, configure the variable's type and definition to return data that matches our specification provided in the variable's notes section.

The Step-by-Step Guide below assumes that:

  • You already have a Ensighten account and a container published on your website.
  • You have edit permissions to the container you wish to implement against.

If you need further help, please see the main pixel specification or consult with your Bloomreach representative.

Step 1: Configure Bloomreach Tag Triggers

There are 5 different tags to fire from Ensighten for a Bloomreach Pixel implementation.

Bloomreach Page View Tag Trigger

This tag needs to fire on every page view, including any AJAX interactions that trigger an additional page view, but not a full page load. An important thing to note here is that getting an accurate page type ( ptype ) classification is a major component and is covered in further details in the Data section.

The conditions value is dependent on your site setup; however, example conditions using events have been added. These example events are described in the Events section.

🚧

The Page View Tag also needs to fire on any virtual page views, such as AJAX interactions that load content outside of the normal page load cycle.

Bloomreach ATC Tag Trigger

Any time a user adds an item to their cart, Bloomreach's Add To Cart Event should fire. Typically this includes the product display page and product listing pages such as category or search pages. If an Add To Cart button is located anywhere else on your site (e.g. Product Collection pages) , please also fire this tag there as well.

Bloomreach Suggest Tag Trigger

If you have an auto-suggest feature in your search form, when a user clicks on a search suggestion, Bloomreach expects a Search Suggest Event to fire. 
If you do not have autosuggest, skip this section.

Bloomreach Search Tag Trigger

If a user types`woven scarf` and then clicks the search button or hits enter to submit the search, Bloomreach expects a search event pixel to fire that contains information about the search query.

Bloomreach Quick View Tag Trigger

The Quick View event should be fired directly after someone opens a product quick view, commonly found category display pages. However, if you have quick view on other page types as well, this event should be fired.

Step 2: Configure Bloomreach Events


Creating these events in Ensighten will make firing the appropriate BloomReach pixel easier to work with. Recommendation is to use Named Events and add the appropriate call to Bootstrapper.ensEvent.trigger in your application javascript

Step 3: Configure Bloomreach Variables


It is possible to add these data elements inline in the associated Tag’s javascript; however, it’s recommended to separate them out into their own data elements for easier management and tracking.

Custom example values have been provided; however, if you need assistance please reach out.
