Connections
Monitoring
Test and monitor your Connection Configuration
Overview
Converge provides the following tools to monitor and debug whether your Connections are correctly set up.
Connection Logs
Converge stores detailed logs of every event that gets sent to Converge including event properties, profile properties and aliases.
Where to find Connection logs
- Navigate to the Connections Tab in your Converge dashboard
- Click on the Connection you want to debug
- Click on the Logs tab to see the logs
- Click on any of the Log Lines to inspect a Log instance
Filter through the logs
- By Event Name: You can select a subset of events to show in the log by clicking on Select events and then ticking the relevant events.
- By Date: You can use the date picker in the right top corner to select log lines from a particular date range.
- By Forwarding Status: You can click on Select status to see the Forwarding Status of a particular event.
- By Connection Type: Whether the forwarding is processed through the Server or through the Browser (client-side).
Forwarding Status
Every event that gets processed by the Connection gets a forwarding status. This status gives you insight as to how the Connection processed this data.
Status | Definition |
---|---|
Success | The event was correctly received by the destination |
Failure | The event failed to be delivered, read the log detail for more information |
Retry | The event is being retried (until Success or Failure ) |
Filtered | The event was processed by the Connection and filtered out (i.e. it has not been sent to the destination) based on one of the Connection Filters |
External | An event was fired to this destination that was not triggered by Converge If you see a bunch of events with an External status, this means that another tracking source is still active and should likely be turned off |
Skipped | An event was processed by the Connection and skipped by the Connection to adhere to the Destination Specification This status usually occurs when Converge processes both browser-side and server-side events but the Destination does not accept server-side events or cannot effectively deduplicate events from two sources. |
No consent | The server-side event was not forwarded because the visitor has not given consent for the connection consent category. |
