_satellite.data

The usage of_satellite.data in DTM tends focus around the_satellite.data.customVarsobject. This object was never intended to be accessed directly, but the system allowed it, so people did it.

Remedies:

If your DTM implementation set data elements in code by setting keys directly on the _satellite.data.customVars object, you can replace those calls with _satellite.setVar(<data element name>, <data element value>).

Below is an example in code.

//Crusty old stuff in DTM
_satellite.data.customVars.checkoutStage = "Shipping Info";

//Shiny new stuff in Launch
_satellite.setVar("checkoutStage", "Shipping Info");

If your DTM implementation accessed values directly from within the_satellite.data.customVarsobject, _satellite.getVar(<data element name>) can be used instead.

Below is an example in code.

//Crusty old stuff in DTM
var checkoutStage = _satellite.data.customVars.checkoutStage;

//Shiny new stuff in Launch
var checkoutStage = _satellite.getVar("checkoutStage");
