Add tracker by regex
There are specific use-cases where your organization may want to persist tracker configuration across a group of trackers that follow a particular pattern. Utilizing regular expression (regex), you can provide the pattern for a single tracker and Didomi will apply the tracker's settings to any tracker found that matches the pattern.
Example:
Your organization has three cookies being dropped by the same vendor on a domain that should have the same settings. The trackers that are dropped are:
_ga
_ga#
_ga_12345
Using the example above, your organization can attribute and persist the same settings across all three cookies with a regex of ^_ga .
To define this pattern, enable the Name is a regular expression toggle and use a regular expression in the Name field when adding or editing a tracker in your data manager.
Click Save when finished.
All trackers that match your configured regex pattern will inherit the source tracker's settings.
