1 00:00:28.110 ⇒ 00:00:29.529 Henry Zhao: Hey, Zarone, how’s it going?
2 00:00:29.760 ⇒ 00:00:33.830 Zoran Selinger: Hi, hi. Yeah, good, good, good busy day.
3 00:00:34.420 ⇒ 00:00:35.770 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, thank you.
4 00:00:35.770 ⇒ 00:00:40.230 Henry Zhao: Morning, it was really helpful. Is there anything specific you wanted to talk about, or you just wanted to follow up?
5 00:00:40.230 ⇒ 00:00:49.670 Zoran Selinger: No, no, no, I mean, I want, I want to understand, Catalyst, you said you’re gonna do the research, so, yeah, excited to hear.
6 00:00:50.700 ⇒ 00:00:56.969 Henry Zhao: Yeah, so basically, Catalyst is going to be receiving the data from a Pixel that we have to install.
7 00:00:57.140 ⇒ 00:01:06.409 Henry Zhao: So, my curiosity now is how do we… I guess there’s not really much to talk on the Catalyst side. We can do all of our modeling and stitching in BigQuery.
8 00:01:07.440 ⇒ 00:01:13.020 Henry Zhao: So now, I just need to get your guidance on, now that the Cloudflare worker, that looks great.
9 00:01:13.440 ⇒ 00:01:23.219 Henry Zhao: Can that integrate with, like, a segment pixel, so that we have the same anonymous ID persisted throughout the person’s visits? That’s the only question I have.
10 00:01:23.820 ⇒ 00:01:24.800 Zoran Selinger: Excuse me.
11 00:01:25.250 ⇒ 00:01:32.529 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, so I’m going to, attempt that tomorrow, on my, on my site.
12 00:01:32.850 ⇒ 00:01:39.249 Zoran Selinger: So, I think I’m gonna put that value into a cookie.
13 00:01:39.570 ⇒ 00:01:40.220 Henry Zhao: Okay.
14 00:01:40.220 ⇒ 00:01:57.160 Zoran Selinger: same as I’m initializing this session ID, I’m gonna do the same for the user ID, and then, and then I’m going to kind of grab it from inside the GTM and put it into tags.
15 00:01:57.220 ⇒ 00:02:06.329 Zoran Selinger: Where they need to be. That’s… that’s the plan, for tomorrow. Right, that’s it. Yeah, I see… I think we… I think we’ll do it, yeah.
16 00:02:06.330 ⇒ 00:02:22.769 Henry Zhao: Yeah, as long as that… what you showed us in BigQuery is like that, but then, like, the future… like, every action after that has the same ID that we can stitch together, then that is perfect. That’s, then I think we have a finished product that would… that meets our needs.
17 00:02:23.330 ⇒ 00:02:40.599 Zoran Selinger: Yes, so I was looking at some pixel implementations, and yeah, we do have those kind of identify calls with pixels, where we can set up the ID. I mean, Segment has it, Norwin has it, GA4 has it.
18 00:02:40.620 ⇒ 00:02:53.319 Zoran Selinger: So, yeah, we’ll be able to define, the DID. So… the… yeah, so I’m thinking…
19 00:02:54.640 ⇒ 00:03:07.960 Zoran Selinger: I’m thinking, so, our kind of worker will change the ID every… basically, I’ll have to see if…
20 00:03:10.850 ⇒ 00:03:17.550 Zoran Selinger: Actually, okay, we can persist, we can persist. I should be able to… to grab cookies,
21 00:03:17.980 ⇒ 00:03:26.939 Zoran Selinger: the existing, to check whether the existing ID is in the cookie already, then we are persisting IDs.
22 00:03:27.550 ⇒ 00:03:28.050 Henry Zhao: money.
23 00:03:28.050 ⇒ 00:03:29.229 Zoran Selinger: Which is good, yeah.
24 00:03:29.230 ⇒ 00:03:32.839 Henry Zhao: Let me know if you need anything on the segment side, if you were able to log into that.
25 00:03:32.880 ⇒ 00:03:37.080 Zoran Selinger: I have a Segment Pixel, browser extension also that.
26 00:03:38.410 ⇒ 00:03:41.479 Henry Zhao: That I use, just to make sure that that works.
27 00:03:42.060 ⇒ 00:03:45.269 Zoran Selinger: Sure, sure. I’m just… I’m just gonna mock,
28 00:03:45.890 ⇒ 00:03:49.879 Zoran Selinger: kind of mock functionalities tomorrow, and again.
29 00:03:49.880 ⇒ 00:03:50.410 Henry Zhao: Yeah.
30 00:03:50.410 ⇒ 00:03:53.229 Zoran Selinger: I’ll create a video, or… Okay.
31 00:03:53.230 ⇒ 00:03:54.060 Henry Zhao: That’s exactly what I was gonna say.
32 00:03:54.130 ⇒ 00:03:55.379 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, same thing.
33 00:03:56.710 ⇒ 00:03:58.300 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, yeah, and yeah.
34 00:03:58.300 ⇒ 00:03:59.840 Henry Zhao: Either way, the people are very happy.
35 00:03:59.900 ⇒ 00:04:01.160 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, yeah.
36 00:04:02.010 ⇒ 00:04:14.469 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, I think it’s gonna be a cool, cool solution, something I’ve never, I’ve never done before, just coming in a kind of tutorial environment, so I think it’s gonna be really cool.
37 00:04:14.650 ⇒ 00:04:18.349 Henry Zhao: Yeah, that’s awesome. Thanks again for your work, and I’m really excited about this as well.
38 00:04:18.769 ⇒ 00:04:25.029 Zoran Selinger: Sure, alright, cool, cool. If you need anything else, on any other, thing, let me know.
39 00:04:25.290 ⇒ 00:04:26.689 Henry Zhao: Okay, sounds good. Thank you so much.
40 00:04:26.690 ⇒ 00:04:27.740 Zoran Selinger: Thanks.
41 00:04:28.090 ⇒ 00:04:28.830 Henry Zhao: Take care.
42 00:04:28.830 ⇒ 00:04:29.770 Zoran Selinger: Take care, bye-bye.
