User tag - JavaScript Selector

urs_fischer — Fri, 30 Sep 2022 12:07:05 GMT

Hi,

I have an Application where i have the Login Name for User Tagging in the Variable localStorage["ls.user.userId"]. If i want to put that into the JavaScript Variable, i am not able to put it in because of the "[]" (Message from Dynatrace: "Not supported JavaScript expression! ").

Do you now a way to put this localStorage Variable into Dynatrace Managed?

Thanks for your Help, Urs

Try yo use it that way localStorage.ls.user.userId Such notation localStorage.<yourvariablename> is working in browsers as well and should work in DT as well. What I'm concerned about are dots in variable name. If this will not work, unfortunately it is not possible to use localStorage.

Here is RFE with explenation:
