RPI web client decisions

Overview

This document outlines some basic functionality related to Real-Time decisions when using the rpiWebClient.

Replacing DIV elements on a webpage with Real-Time decisions and Real-Time layouts

RPI web client initialization | Initialize-Web-Client-and-Execute-a-Realtime-Decision contains an example of initializing the client and including a Real-Time context.

By including the Real-Time context, it will execute any Real-Time decisions under that context or any child context/decision by default. When these decisions are executed, they will automatically replace the content of the DIV with the same name as the Tag Name listed in the configuration of the Real-Time decision in the Real-Time Layout.

Below is an example of a webpage where the DIV id is named "Goal_Smart_Asset_Test" and will get replaced by the Real-Time decision that is executed by initializing the client with a context of "RealtimeExamples".

 <div id="top"><h2>Goal Driven Asset Example - HTML Response:</h2></div>

</body>

<script type="text/javascript">
//Inilize WebClient and execute any Realtime Decisions
rpiWebClient.init( { contexts: ["RealtimeExamples"] });
</script>

Below is the configuration of the Real-Time layout that will replace that DIV with the response from the Real-Time decision. The key piece is that the DIV ID matches the Tag Name in the Smart Asset.
