Marfeel supports different page technologies like Web or AMP that allow users to slice and dice data based on their distribution technology.

Each Marfeel SDK automatically encodes a value according to this table:

Id Page Technology
0 Web
1 AMP
2 FBIA
3 iOS App
4 Android App
5 Flowcards
6 Pressreader
7 App
8 Apple News

Specify the pageType

There are cases where the developer might want to change the pageType default value set by the AMP or JS SDK to a different value. Both the JS and AMP SDKs allow you to override its values.

Set pageType via JS SDK

If you bundle your web version as a native application in a Webview you can identify a different page technology on the Marfeel tracker initialization:

{pageType:"app"}

A complete code snippet would look like:

var mrfTech = 'web';
if(is_app){ //use your own logic to know if the page is loading in your inapp webview
   mrfTech='app';
}

function e(e){var t=!(arguments.length>1&&void 0!==arguments[1])||arguments[1],c=document.createElement("script");c.src=e,t?c.type="module":(c.async=!0,c.type="text/javascript",c.setAttribute("nomodule",""));var n=document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];n.parentNode.insertBefore(c,n)}function t(t,c,n){var a,o,r;null!==(a=t.marfeel)&&void 0!==a||(t.marfeel={}),null!==(o=(r=t.marfeel).cmd)&&void 0!==o||(r.cmd=[]),t.marfeel.config=n,t.marfeel.config.accountId=c;var i="https://sdk.mrf.io/statics";e("".concat(i,"/marfeel-sdk.js?id=").concat(c),!0),e("".concat(i,"/marfeel-sdk.es5.js?id=").concat(c),!1)}!function(e,c){var n=arguments.length>2&&void 0!==arguments[2]?arguments[2]:{};t(e,c,n)}(window,
   /*accountId*/,
   {pageType:mrfTech} /*config*/
);

Set pageType on AMP

On AMP you can override the default pageType adding a var directly on the Marfeel snippet:

<amp-analytics config="https://events.newsroom.bi/amp.v1.json" data-credentials="include">
  <script type="application/json" >
    {
      "vars" : {
        "accountId": "000", //USE YOUR PERSONAL ACCOUNT ID
      },
      "extraUrlParams": {
         "pageType": 3
      }
    }
  </script>
</amp-analytics>
