New Google Analytics Linker Parameter Algo
version 0.1 Needs commenting
!!! Current version not properly generating the browser fingerprint . As usual the
linker value should be only valid for the next 2 minutes since it was generated.
Will review it
Note that GA library currently provides a public function to get the linker param
google_tag_data.glBridge.generate()
Use:
google_tag_data.glBridge.generate({
_ga: '121321321321.2315648466', // Google Analytics GA ID
_gac: undefined, // Google Remarketing ,not needed at all
_gid: '121321321321.2315648466' // Google ID
});
This glBridge ( Google Linker Bridge ? )tools provides same functionality as GA Linker / Decorate plugin, but
more likely to be used for All Google Suite products instead of just for Google Analytics
{
auto: ƒ,
decorate: ƒ,
generate: ƒ,
get: ƒ
