To find the canonical URL and unique identifier variables for a page created through the Webflow CMS, follow these steps:

Open the Webflow Designer and navigate to the page for which you want to find the canonical URL and unique identifier variables.
With the page selected, click on the "Page settings" button on the right-hand panel.
In the "SEO settings" section, you will find the "Canonical URL" field. This field displays the canonical URL for the selected page. The canonical URL is the preferred URL that search engines should index and display in search results.
To find the unique identifier variable, scroll down to the "Custom code" section. Here you will find the "Head code" field.
Inside the "Head code" field, you can add the unique identifier variable using the script tag format. This variable allows you to add unique code or track specific events on that particular page. For example, you can use this to track conversions or integrate with third-party tools like Google Analytics or Facebook Pixel.

It's important to note that the canonical URL and unique identifier variables are added on a per-page basis and can be configured individually for each page within the Webflow CMS.

In summary, here's how you can find the canonical URL and unique identifier variables for a page created through the Webflow CMS:

Open Webflow Designer and navigate to the desired page.
Access the "Page settings" panel.
Retrieve the canonical URL from the "SEO settings" section.
Find the "Head code" field in the "Custom code" section.
Add your unique identifier variable in script tag format.

Now you have the information you need to optimize SEO and track specific events on your Webflow CMS pages!
