Hi sabahatu,

Thanks for replying back.

As i didn’t setup the target for the website. I cannot say for sure.

Client has already set it up. I got the access later.

I think its at.js,

cuz the elements in page have class like “at-element-marker”

and also “at-element-click-tracking” (when click goal is added via “Goal & Settings”)

But when i check the Setup=> Implementation, mbox.js is selected.

To add up,

I have already tried following

<script>

$('a').click(function(){

  adobe.target.trackEvent({'mbox’:’quicklinkclick’})

});

</script>

and added conversion goal to view mbox “quicklinkclick”;

when i check console log in chrome, i got following:

VM768 satellite-59b9eb0164746d4b1b00b18b.js:18

AT: Track event request failed {mbox: "quicklinkclick", params: {…}, timeout: 15000, success: ƒ, error: ƒ} {status: "error", error: "abort"}

you are on a right track.
I assume you first created this mbox "quicklinkclick" through console and secondly under metrics you selected "viewed an mbox" (Not clicked on mbox)

cheers,
