Understanding the Requirements
In order to unify website tracking with existing profiles, a submission of an MCA landing page or form handler is required. This step is crucial for the unification process to happen. Additionally, it’s essential to check if any unification is happening at all by looking at the ‘Identity match’ object.
When building segments based on website engagement, it’s not uncommon to encounter issues, such as getting population for each criteria but 0 when saving it. This can be due to various reasons, including bugs on the back of tracking and unification.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
To troubleshoot these issues, it’s essential to check the ‘Identity match’ object to see if any unification is happening. If not, it may be necessary to review the setup of the MCA landing page or form handler to ensure that it is submitting data correctly.
