Dynamic Google Analytics Account in GTM

I am new to GTM and in learning phase. I wanted to implement GTM on one of the websites and requirement is that

Based on URL, Analytics shall be sent to different GA accounts.

Below is the example

URL                       GAAccount
------------------------------------
http://domain.com/abc     UA-xxxxxabc
http://domains.com/def     UA-xxxxxdef
http://domain.com/xyx     UA-xxxxxxyz
http://domains.com/qwe     UA-xxxxxqwe

I tried to make lookuptable in GTM exactly same as mentioned above and that will operate on basis of URL but the problem here is that actual URL contains a long encrypted string as below

http://domain.com/abc/!ut/b/dasdasd654654WEEWEXX879987xxxSSWWo_adasdw_wewqewqe

So my lookuptable can not match URL and i get error in GTM console that Undefined account

I know about Page URL variables provided by GTM but i am not sure how to combine Page Hostname and Page Path to one Variable and then strip unwanted string from Page Path and match the exact URL.

you need 50 reps to comment :)

    function () { 
 var value={{Page Path}}.split("/"); 
 return value[1]; 
 }

Hopefully this will return only abc (I'm not sure), if it works a lookup table will do the rest :)

Lookup table did not work becuase it matches the entire url with your given input so it would check like http://domain.com/abc equals to http://domain.com/abc/!ut/b/dasdasd654654WEEWEXX879987xxxSSWWo_adasdw_wewqewqe which is obviously false

what you can do here is create a custom javascript variable that returns tracking id if your condition matches here is an example

function(){

    if("{{Page URL}}".match("domain.com/abc")!==null){
        return("UA-xxxxxabc")
    }
    else if("{{Page URL}}".match("domain.com/def")!==null){
        return("UA-xxxxxdef")
    }
    else if("{{Page URL}}".match("domain.com/xyx")!==null){
        return("UA-xxxxxxyz")
    }
    else if("{{Page URL}}".match("domain.com/qwe")!==null){
        return("UA-xxxxxqwe")
    }
}

Hope this helps
