❗️

📘

Note

Optimizely Visitor Intelligence is dependent on Optimizely Profile Store to be installed for data tracking and storage. The Insight API is for Optimizely-internal use only, for the Visitor Intelligence user interface.

1. To install Visitor Intelligence, you need to install the *EPiServer.Insight.UI package. Enter install-package EPiServer.Insight.UI at the Package Manager Console prompt (PM> ) in Visual Studio.
2. Open web.config and modify the following keys in the <appSettings> section to configure a tracking account.

<add key="episerver:profiles.InsightApiBaseUrl" value="" />
<add key="episerver:profiles.InsightApiSubscriptionKey" value="" />
<add key="episerver:profiles.InsightApiTimeoutSeconds" value="" />
<add key="episerver:profiles.CloudUIBaseUrl" value="" />

• episerver:profiles.InsightApiBaseUrl – URL to the Insight API endpoint. The URL is sent together with the subscription key, when an account is created.
• episerver:profiles.InsightApiSubscriptionKey – Subscription key for the Visitor Intelligence account. The subscription key URL is sent together with the URL, when an account is created.
• episerver:profiles.InsightApiTimeoutSeconds – (Optional) Sets the timeout for Insight API requests in seconds. Default is 100 seconds.
• episerver:profiles.CloudUIBaseUrl – URL to the cloud UI endpoint. The URL is sent together with the subscription key, when an account is created.

Note

The episerver:profiles.InsightApiTimeoutSeconds configuration specifies the maximum duration (in seconds) that the website will wait for a visitor group evaluation from the Insight API before falling back to the default. This setting is optional and defaults to 100 seconds if not specified. Adjusting this value can help manage performance in scenarios with varying network latency or loading times of the webpage, especially when multiple visitor groups are configured on a webpage.
