The creation of saved pages is useful for declaring the url structure of your site's pages once, and then using these saved pages as a targting criterion or filter in reporting.
For more information about saved pages usage in the application, please refer to our tutorial about saved pages and pages builder.
You'll find the Page builder in the section Library of the application.
Creating a new page
To create a Page, click on the CTA Create Page. The builder opens:
You need to enter:
- a name for your Page. Ex: "Product pages"
- the configuration based on URL(s) using the available 8 operators (is, is exactly, contains, is regular expression, is not, is not exactly, does not contain, is not regular expression). For more informatino about how to use the operators to build your URL pattern, please refer to the article How to use URL operators to build URL patterns.
A Page must include at least one URL(s) rule and can exclude one or several URL(s) rules.
You can combine inclusive operator(s) (is, is exactly, contains, is regular expression) with exclusive operator(s) (is not, is not exactly, does not contain, is not regular expression).
In this case, a website’s URL has to match:
- All the exclusion rules
- Some (almost one) of the inclusion rules
URL configuration examples
To configure the page URL(s), you can choose from the following operators:
Operator | Functional: accepts... |
is |
Includes all URLs matching the string, even if they include parameters. |
is exactly |
Includes the URL matching the exact string. Parameters that are not mentioned in the string are not taken into account. |
contains | Includes all URLs containing the string. Parameters following the string will also be taken into account. Example: /product/ |
is not |
Excludes all URLs matching the string, even if they include parameters. |
is not exactly |
Excludes the URL matching the exact string. |
does not contain |
Excludes all URLs containing the string. Parameters following the string will also be taken into account. |
is not regular expression |
Excludes all URLs matching the regex. You don’t need to escape special characters of your regular expression. |
Inclusion(s) only
If you include one or several specific URL(s), all the other URLs will automatically be excluded from the set-up. At least one of them has to match.
Combination of inclusions and exclusions
You can combine inclusive operator(s) (is, is exactly, contains, is regular expression) with exclusive operator(s) (is not, is not exactly, does not contain, is not regular expression).
In this case, to be accepted in the targeting, a website’s URL has to match:
- All the exclusion rules
- Some (Almost one) of the inclusion rules
For example, to set-up a saved page that represents all the pages of your website except product pages, apply the following steps:
- Select contains > http://mydomain.com.
- Click Add condition.
- Select does not contain > /product/
⭐ Good to know
Adding exclusions only is not possible. To work properly, the set-up has to be filled with almost one inclusion condition.
