Delay
Delay server requests to be sent to the server container
Description
As the name points out, this add-on is a very simple tool with the only purpose of delaying the requests made to your server side container.
It works by storing the requests and forwarding it after the specified delay period is over.
Implementation
To activate this add-on, go to your container on sprtags.io > Add-ons > Delay. Enable it and click on save.
Now you just have to send the requests you want to delay to:
{your_tagging_url}/delay/{the minutes you want to delay them}/{the usual path you would send them to} and you will receive them with the specified delay on your tagging server.
Checkout out our How-To page to:
- find your tagging url
- X-GTM-Server-Preview HTTP header
- execute curl commands
Request without delay:
curl -H \
'x-gtm-server-preview: {Your X-Gtm-Server-Preview HTTP header}' \
'https://{your_tagging_url}/g/collect?v=2&en=page_view&tid=G-1234&cid=123.456&'
Request with delay by one minute:
curl -H \
'x-gtm-server-preview: {Your X-Gtm-Server-Preview HTTP header}' \
'https://{your_tagging_url}/delay/1/g/collect?v=2&en=page_view&tid=G-1234&cid=123.456&'
As you can see in the animation, we send the request specifying a delay of one minute and after one minute it arrives:
