Fence: setReportEventDataForAutomaticBeacons() method
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The setReportEventDataForAutomaticBeacons()
method of the
Fence
interface specifies event data that will be sent when a navigation occurs inside a <fencedframe>
. This data will be sent via an automatic beacon to one or more specific URLs registered via the registerAdBeacon()
method of the Protected Audience API, for the purpose of collecting reporting data for ad auction results.
Note: reportEvent()
provides similar report data submission, except in that case the submission is triggered via an explicit method call rather than a navigation.
Syntax
setReportEventDataForAutomaticBeacons(event)
Parameters
event
-
an object representing the data to send. The possible properties are as follows:
eventType
-
A string representing the type of event that is being reported. The available values are:
reserved.top_navigation_start
: An event fired when a top-level navigation begins.reserved.top_navigation_commit
: An event fired when a top-level navigation completes.
eventData
-
A string representing the data to be sent.
destination
-
An array containing one or more enumerated values representing destination types. These are the involved parties that will receive the data to their registered URLs (i.e. via
registerAdBeacon()
). The possible values are:"buyer"
: The bidder in the ad auction."seller"
: The top-level seller running the ad auction."component-seller"
: The seller for a component auction in a multi-level auction."direct-seller"
: The seller that directly ran the auction the buyer bid in. If the ad was a single-level auction, the value used will be"seller"
. If the ad was a multi-level auction, the value used will be"component-seller"
."shared-storage-select-url"
: A Shared Storage API storage location, as defined in aWindow.sharedStorage.selectURL()
method call.
once
Optional-
A boolean value. If set to
true
, the automatic beacon will only be sent for the next event, and beacons will not be sent for subsequent events untilsetReportEventDataForAutomaticBeacons()
is invoked again. For example, when used with aclick
handler this can be used to send beacon data only for specific top-level navigations, rather than for every top-level navigation. This property defaults tofalse
.
Return value
None (Undefined
).
Examples
window.fence.setReportEventDataForAutomaticBeacons({
eventType: "reserved.top_navigation_start",
eventData: "an example string",
destination: ["seller", "buyer"],
});
