Tag tips

• Use mapping to:
  • Override the standard config value for KM API Key
  • Override the E-Commerce extension values
  • Trigger calls containing the mapped data to _kmq.push()
• Purchase events are automatically recorded when an order ID is set. All of the E-Commerce extension values are supported.
• _kmq.push mapping examples:
  • ['record', 'EVENT_NAME']
  • ['record', 'EVENT_NAME', {'PROPERTY_NAME':'VALUE'}]
  • ['record', 'EVENT_NAME', {'PROPERTY_NAME':'VALUE'}, CALLBACK_FUNCTION]
  • ['set', {'PROPERTY_NAME':'VALUE'}]
  • ['identify', 'IDENTITY']
• Common Methods: Kissmetrics API Common Metrics.
