Installing Osano on BigCommerce

  • Updated

In Osano, the "Get Code" button will become active after creating and publishing your configuration. This button will provide you with the osano.js.

BigCommerce

In order to run effectively, however, Osano needs to be injected into the global <head> of the document. The easiest way to accomplish this in BigCommerce is by utilizing Script Manager.

For compliance reasons, the Osano script should be the first script to execute in the <head> of your website. 

To add/create scripts using Script Manager:

  1. To access the Script Manager, go to Storefront › Script Manager.

  2. Click Create a Script.

    1. Name: Osano Consent Manager
    2. Description: Example: Used to manage consents on our storefront
    3. Head
    4. All Pages
    5. Script category: Essential
    6. Load Method: Default
  3. Add the Osano script
       <script src="https://cmp.osano.com/user_id/config_id/osano.js"></script>

    User_id / Customer_id

    This is generated by the Osano application when you create your osano.js. It is the first string of numbers in your javascript and will be unique to your organization. All configurations in your account will have the same user/customer_id.

    Configuration_id

    This is generated by the Osano application when you create your osano.js. It is the second string of numbers in your javascript and will be unique to each configuration you create. All configurations in your account will have a unique configuration_id. 

  4. After adding your code, click Save.

Once added and saved, run the application, inspect and check. You should see the script added inside the head tag. 

Important: The Osano.js should be placed without any async or defer attributes. Compliance cannot be guaranteed when using the attributes above.
