Pricing
Using the extension is free of charge, but it needs to be linked to a Custobar account, which is subject to fees. Custobar's invoicing for the service is based on the number of customers.
Installation and setup
Setting up the extension involves creating a new API key for the online store in Custobar, adding the key to the extension's settings and installing the Custobar tracking script in the online store. See below for detailed steps.
The Custobar extension is not yet generally available for all online stores. If you cannot see it on the
page in the admin panel of your online store, contact MyCashflow's customer service, for example, by using the chat feature in the admin panel and request the Custobar extension to be enabled in your online store.1/4 Signing up for a Custobar account
2/4 Acquiring an API key
After you have signed up for a Custobar account, you can initiate enabling the service by creating an API key:
3/4 Installing the extension
After you have created and copied the API key, you can install the Custobar extension in your online store.
4/4 Installing the tracking script
After having installed the Custobar extension in your online store, you can define the Custobar tracking settings and copy the tracking script to the extension settings.
Now Custobar tracking is applied in the selected store version.
To test whether it works properly, you can use the Validate function on the page.
Using Custobar in multiple store versions
The Custobar extension can only be installed in one store version at a time, but it is possible to use Custobar tracking in multiple versions by installing the tracking script in the <head>
element of the theme. In this case, you should also inform the MyCashflow customer service about which versions you want the Custobar tracking applied to.
If you are not accustomed to editing theme code, you can ask the MyCashflow customer service to make the changes for you.
In order to use Custobar tracking in multiple store versions, the value of the cstbrConfig.productId variable needs to be set with an Interface tag that prints the product ID (see the example below, the required change has been highlighted in bold).
Do not copy the code example to your own theme.
The code includes a key for a specific account, so the code as shown below will not work in your online store.
You can find your own tracking script on the
page in the Custobar admin panel.<html>
<head>
...
<script>
(function(c,u,s,t,o,b,a,r) {var e;c[o]=[];c[b]=a;e=u.createElement(s);
r=u.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];e.async=1;e.src=t;
r.parentNode.insertBefore(e,r);})(window,document,'script',
'https://api.custobar.com/js/v1/custobar.js',
'cstbr','cstbrConfig',{"_companyToken":"API3N5P5ROVRNETINFFFMG4FEZH5GKLUPS5YX4NO"});
cstbrConfig.productId = {ProductID(after: '{VariationID(before: '-')}_{VersionID}')};
cstbrConfig.customerId = YOUR_CUSTOMER_ID;
</script>
...
After installing the tracking script in the theme, notify MyCashflow's customer service, and they will activate Custobar product feeds for all the necessary store versions.
