Get the Analytics tracking server using your browser’s Developer Tools

The Developer Tools should be viewed on a page where the activity is delivered to ensure you select the correct tracking server. You can also specify a default tracking server for each account. Contact Customer Care to specify or modify the default.

  1. From the page on which you are creating your activity, open the browser’s Developer Tools (in Google Chrome, click the three vertical ellipses in the top-right corner > More Tools > Developer Tools).

  2. Click the Network tab.

  3. Filter for /ss, to display the Analytics requests.

    The tracking server is the hostname of the request.

    • First-party tracking server: If the hostname of the request matches the domain you are on, then it’s a first-party tracking server. For example, if you are on adobe.com, adobe.com is the first-party tracking server.
    • Third-party tracking server: A third-party tracking server is typically [company].sc.omtrdc.net where the company is the name of your company, but always ends in sc.omtrdc.net.
    • CNAME implementations: sstats.adobe.com is an example of a CNAME first-party tracking server for an https (secure) request. stats.adobe.com is an example of a CNAME first-party request for an http (non-secure) page.
  4. Copy the entire contents of the field.

  5. In the Reporting Settings section of the Goal & Settings screen of your activity, paste the tracking server information in the Tracking Server field.

    NOTE
    Select Analytics as the Reporting Source for your activity for the Tracking Server field to be available.
