Configuring the Acquia Global tag

CDP uses an encrypted layer with a bcrypt salted key. You must refresh this key daily to access and push payloads to the CDP API. You must add the encrypted layer to the global tag so that it can auto-create the bcrypt key before getting fired daily, each time a customer engages on a webpage where GTM is added.

  2. Name the tag as CDP - Global.

  3. Click Tag Configuration.

        var $A1Config = {
                                    key: hashes [today],
                                    tenantId: ADD ID, host: "Acquia API URL"
                                   };
