Loop Horizon’s Storage Helper

We help your team in many ways across a project and are also working to create free resources like extensions, here's how to use our newest Adobe Extension, Storage Helper.

Loop Horizon’s Storage Helper Extension is a useful tool that provides UI to handle all your browser storages on Adobe Launch. The extension is integrated with Adobe Launch’s Data Elements, Actions, and Conditions making implementations that are dependent on cookies, localStorage, and sessionStorage much smoother. Now you don’t need to code every time you have you set, remove, get, or compare your browser storage, just use our extension.

Here are some ways in which our extension is going to help you.  

1. Create a data element to get your cookie/localStorage/sessionStorage value and use it across your implementations.

2. Use conditions to compare your cookie/localStorage/sessionStorage value against conditions like equals, contains, starts with, and ends with directly within the UI.

3. Use our actions to set or remove your cookies/localStorage/sessionStorage.
