Split String - SGTM Variable

Variable Template (Server) for Google Tag Manager for splitting a string. You can split by first, last or Nth occurrence. Result can be the split result itself, complete string or limited string returned.

This Template is available in the Google Tag Manager Template Gallery.

Delimiter

• Type in a delimiter for splitting the string
  • To split a string based spaces in the string, type space as delimiter
• Regular Expression splitting is not supported

Select Occurence to Return

You can split the string using the following methods:

• First Occurrence
• Last Occurrence
• Nth Occurrence from Start of string
  • The first occurence is 0 when counting delimiters from the start of string
• Nth Occurence from End of string
  • The first occurence is 1 when counting delimiters from the end of string

Enhanced Split Result

When splitting a string, only the first result is normally returned. If the-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog is your string, and you split using - (hyphen) on First Occurence, the result returned is the.

With enhanced result settings, you can either return the complete string after the split, or a limited string.

Return Complete String after Split

If selected, the complete string after the split will be returned.

E.g. if your string is the-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog, and you split using - (hyphen) at occurence 2, the value returned is brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog.

Limit Complete String Returned

If selected, the complete string after the split will be limited.

E.g. if your string is the-quick-brown-fox-jumps-over-the-lazy-dog, and you split using - (hyphen) at occurence 2, and the limitation number is set to 3, the value returned is brown-fox-jumps.
