You can send data to Experience Edge directly using the Web SDK, or through the Web SDK extension in Tags.
1
Ensure you have defined a report suite.
2
Setup schemas. To standardize data collection for use across applications that leverage Adobe Experience Platform, Adobe has created the open and publicly documented standard, Experience Data Model (XDM).
3
Create a data layer to manage the tracking of the data on your website.
4
Install the prebuilt standalone version. You can reference the library (alloy.js) on the CDN directly on your page or download and host it on your own infrastructure. Alternatively, you can use the NPM package.
5
Configure a datastream. A datastream represents the server-side configuration when implementing the Adobe Experience Platform Web SDK.
6
Add an Adobe Analytics service to your datastream. That service controls whether and how data is sent to Adobe Analytics.
7
Configure the Web SDK. Ensure the library that you installed in step 4 is properly configured with the datastream ID (formerly known as edge configuration id (edgeConfigId)), organization id (orgId), and other available options.
8
Execute commands and/or track events. After the base code has been implemented on your webpage, you can begin executing commands and tracking events with the SDK.
9
Extend and validate your implementation before pushing it out to production.

Add an Adobe Analytics service to your datastream. That service controls whether and how data is sent to Adobe Analytics.
6
Create a tag property. Properties are overarching containers used to reference tag management data.
7
Install and configure the Web SDK extension in your tag property. Configure the Web SDK extension to send data to the datastream configured in step 4.
8
Iterate, validate, and publish to production. Embed code to include your tag property to your web site pages. Then use data elements, rules, and so on, to customize your implementation.
Tags can be highly customized. Learn more about how you can get the most out of Adobe Analytics by including the right data in your implementation.
