Virtual Page View Pixel
Virtual Page View Tracking
If you have virtual page views, e.g. single page apps, AJAX interaction that load content outside of the normal page load cycle, you’ll need to add an additional AJAX response handler snippet. For example, if you have a link to a category or product page, which loads via AJAX, you need to add this response handler to the category or product page link. This will trigger a log event to Bloomreach, so we can track the AJAX product page view.
The Bloomreach pixel requires the Original Ref URL parameter to be sent on all virtual Page Loads.
Virtual Page View Code Snippet
var br_data = br_data || {};
// Global pixel parameters ...,
br_data.acct_id = "<Bloomreach Provided Account ID>";
br_data.ptype = "<Bloomreach Page Type>";
br_data.domain_key = "<Bloomreach Domain Key>";
br_data.catalogs = "[ { "name" : "example_en_prd" } ]";
br_data.view_id = "<Bloomreach View ID>";
br_data.user_id = "<Bloomreach User ID>";
br_data.tms = "<Tag Management system to exclude during transition>"
// Add additional Product, Category, Search or Conversion specific pixel parameters
// here ...
// this parameter is required on all Virtual Page Loads
br_data.orig_ref_url = location.href;
BrTrk.getTracker().updateBrData(br_data);
BrTrk.getTracker().logPageView();
