extra site catalyst call on page load

hi am trying to setup rules in DTM. Below is my setup - no page load rules

  1. Custom Event based rule
  2. Direct call rules within custom code of above event based rule.

My expectation is not to fire site catalyst call on custom event based rule but fire only with direct call rules.

Actual result is: When page is loaded even before firing event based rule- I see a site catalyst call is made 'SATELLITE: Adobe Analytics: tracked page view' I am pretty sure this is coming from scode within DTM but I dont want that to happen rather al my calls should be from direct call rules

Any thoughts?

Solution

  • Thanks for your valuable inputs!!

    I could very much suppress the event based and other direct call rules but my major issue was to suppress the initial SC call with page load (happening from DTM library). But I could achieve that based on the hostname - I am returning false when my first rule is event based rule.
