Send Tracking Data

1 Overview

This step sends the collected tracking data to the Mapp Intelligence servers. It’s a core part of the tracking process and must follow the initialization and configuration of data.

Once the request is sent, the data is automatically cleared from the cache. If you need to retain the data (e.g., for single-page applications), you can keep it in memory by passing true as an argument. In this case, the data must be manually removed later using .remove().

Important: Tracking only works if the script is wrapped in the Smart Pixel’s push() function.

2 Available Methods

The Smart Pixel provides the following methods to send tracking requests:

Each method accepts an optional keepData parameter (boolean) to decide whether the data should be retained after sending.

2.1 Method Details

/**
 * @param {boolean=false} [keepData]
 */
wtSmart.track(keepData);

/**
 * @param {boolean=false} [keepData]
 */
wtSmart.trackPage(keepData);

/**
 * @param {boolean=false} [keepData]
 */
wtSmart.trackAction(keepData);

Example

window.wtSmart = window.wtSmart || [];
window.wtSmart.push(function(wtSmart) {
	// set initial tracking config
	wtSmart.init.set({
		trackId: '111111111111111',
		trackDomain: 'q3.webtrekk.net'
	});

	// set page data
	wtSmart.page.data.set('en.index.home');

	// send tracking data and remove data after the request
	wtSmart.track();

	// send tracking data and keep data
	wtSmart.track(true);
});
