What are the descriptions of the Action ID's in Clickstreams?

Environment:

Clickstreams Action ID

Resolution:

Important!

1. The clickstream action ID's are defined by a separate table called cs_actions and are different for every customer (except for action_id in (1,2)).

2. Oracle B2C Service does not advise running reports directly against clickstreams unless it includes a runtime or fixed filter on a well indexed column such as c_id.

3. On a large site, running a table scan on clickstreams is a very process intensive thing to do and should be avoided.

There are 3 types of actions that go into clickstreams table:

1)  Special Actions: Some client data is collected as SOURCE and SOURCE_CLIENT actions. This data is collected for each new visit.

2)  Page Actions: Actions that records page hits or page flips

3)  AJAX Actions: These are AJAX calls where there is no page flip.

Special Actions: Records the source of visit

Special Actions

Action	Description	context1	context2	context3
SOURCE	Click source	IP address	Referring site Ex: google.com	Referring page ex: /list/answers
SOURCE_CLIENT	Client Details	Client OS	Client browser	Full user agent string (as of 9.8)

Page Actions: Clickstream action for pages is driven by page metatag. For example, clickstream="answer_view" indicates the page is an answer view page.
