The tracking proxy is an intermediate server that listens to requests that clients such as browsers send to a public tracking domain such as “fuchsia.example.com
”. The task of the tracking proxy is to forward requests to the Ingenious tracking server.
...
The Ingenious tracking server domain (not the tracking proxy domain!) is the endpoint that the tracking proxy forwards requests to:
proxy.ingenious.cloud
The Ingenious tracking server domain must not be created in the platform, it is maintained by Ingenious so that the Ingenious tracking services are available under that domain.
...
In HTTP, the HTTP header “Cookie” transmits cookies from clients to servers. You need to make sure that specific cookies are forwarded to the Ingenious tracking server.
The following cookies of incoming HTTP requests of the client must be forwarded to the tracking server.
tsc
tsv
tse
trackingoptout
trackingoptout_*
(All cookies starting with "trackingoptout_
".)
Proxy headers
In HTTP, multiple HTTP headers exist that are specifically designed for situations in which proxies are in use. To enable accurate tracking, the tracking server requires specific proxy headers to be present in HTTP requests that are forwarded by a tracking proxy.
The following table lists the proxy headers that the proxy needs to include with a request that it forwards to the tracking server.
Key | Expected value | Proxy Behaviour |
---|---|---|
| IP Address list containing all IPs, including the IP address of the initial HTTP request. | Create or extend this header. |
| Host of initial HTTP request. | Set to host of initial HTTP request. |
| Protocol of initial HTTP request. | Set to protocol of initial HTTP request. |
...
In HTTP, the HTTP header “Set-Cookie” transmits cookies from clients to servers. You need to make sure that specific cookies are forwarded to the Ingenious tracking server.
The following cookies returned from the Ingenious tracking server must be forwarded back to the client.
tsc
tsv
tse
trackingoptout
trackingoptout_*
(All cookies starting with "trackingoptout_
".)
