I am building a custom preference center in SFMC with SSJS that will pass the subscriber context into the landing page via the microSiteUrl() from an email. I am building and testing JUST the landing page portion. In my code I am using the Platform.Variable.GetAttributeValue('xxxxxxxxxx) to get the Subscriber Key, JobID and BatchID. I need these to log an unsub event.

When I go to publish (or even preview) the page I get an error. If I comment out the code, everything is fine. I know that technically the subscriber context isn't there because I'm not accessing the landing page via an email with microSiteUrl(). How can I get those 3 values (subscriberID, JobID and BatchID) and still publish the page?

This is my code:

<script runat="server"> Platform.Load("core","1"); /*subscriber context */ var subscriberKey = Platform.Variable.GetAttributeValue('_subcriberkey'); var batchid = Platform.Variable.GetAttributeValue('BatchID'); var jobid = Platform.Variable.GetAttributeValue('JobID');` </script>

Use from either of the two options below to retrieve the _subscriberKey :

Core Function:

var SubscriberKey = Attribute.GetValue("_subscriberKey");

Platform Function:

var SubscriberKey = Platform.Recipient.GetAttributeValue("_subscriberKey");

I usually set those variables in AMPscript, which still allows me to save the page even though there aren't any values.

%%[ SET @subscriberKey = _subscriberkey SET @emailAddress = emailaddr SET @jobID = jobid SET @listID = listid SET @batchID = _JobSubscriberBatchID ]%%

Then simple refer to them in SSJS using the following:

<script runat="server"> Platform.Load("core", "1.1.1") var emailFields = { //NOTE: Retrieving AMPscript variables into SSJS if coming from email. subKey: Variable.GetValue("@subscriberKey"), emailAddress: Variable.GetValue("@emailAddress"), jobID: Variable.GetValue("@jobID"), listID: Variable.GetValue("@listID"), batchID: Variable.GetValue("@batchID") } </script>

  • I finally got a chance to implement and the landing page will still NOT publish. This is the code. Am I missing something? <!-- AMPScipt to retrieve subscriber context--> %%[ SET @subscriberKey = _subscriberkey SET @jobID = jobid SET @batchID = _JobSubscriberBatchID ]%% <script runat="server"> Platform.Load("core","1"); /*retrieve values set in AMPscript */ var subKey = Variable.GetValue("@subscriberKey"); var batch = Variable.GetValue("@batchID"); var job, = Attribute.getValue('@jobID'); </script> Commented Apr 19, 2018 at 17:55
  • Try removing the comma from "var job, = Attribute.getValue('@jobID')" Commented Jul 5, 2018 at 21:37
