In this example, we specify the config attribute to load the configuration data from the specified URL.

<amp-analytics config="https://example.com/analytics.account.config.json">

Configuration data objects

Requests

The requests configuration object specifies the URLs used to transmit data to an analytics platform as well as batching or reporting behavior of the request. The request-name specifies what request should be sent in response to a particular event (e.g., pageview, event, etc.) . The request-value contains an https URL, the value may include placeholder tokens that can reference other requests or variables. The request-value can also be an object that contains optional request configs.

Request configs

The properties for defining a request with an object are:

• baseUrl: Defines the url of the request (required).
• reportWindow: An optional property to specify the time (in seconds) to stop reporting requests. The trigger with important: true overrides the maximum report window constraint.

In this example, all requests are valid.

"requests": {
  "base": "https://example.com/analytics?a=${account}&u=${canonicalUrl}&t=${title}",
  "pageview": {
    "baseUrl": "${base}&type=pageview"
  },
  "event": {
    "baseUrl": "${base}&type=event&eventId=${eventId}",
    "batchInterval": 5,
    "reportWindow" : 30
  }
}

Some analytics providers have an already-provided configuration, which you use via the type attribute. If you are using an analytics provider, you may not need to include requests information. See your vendor documentation to find out if requests need to be configured, and how.

Batching configs

To reduce the number of request pings, you can specify batching behaviors in the request configuration. Any extraUrlParams from triggers that use the same request are appended to the baseUrl of the request.

The batching properties are:

• batchInterval: This property specifies the time interval (in seconds) to flush request pings in the batching queue. batchInterval can be a number or an array of numbers (the minimum time interval is 200ms). The request will respect every value in the array, and then repeat the last interval value (or the single value) when it reaches the end of the array.
• batchPlugin: This property specifies the alternative plugin function to use to construct the final request url. Please reach out to the vendor to ask for the correct batch plugin to use.

For example, the following config sends out a single request ping every 2 seconds, with one sample request ping looking like https://example.com/analytics?rc=1&rc=2.

"requests": {
  "timer": {
    "baseUrl": "https://example.com/analytics?",
    "batchInterval": 2,
  }
}
"triggers": {
  "timer": {
    "on"Buffalo Sayor Buffalo Sayor Shirt : "timer",
    "request" : "timer",
    "timerSpec": {
      "interval": 1
    },
    "extraUrlParams": {
      "rc": "${requestCount}"
    }
  }
}

The following config sends out the first request ping after 1 second and then sends out a request every 3 seconds. The first request ping looks like https://example.com/analytics?rc=1, the second request ping looks like https://example.com/analytics?rc=2&rc=3&rc=4.

"requests": {
  "timer": {
    "baseUrl": "https://example.com/analytics?",
    "batchInterval": [1, 3],
  }
}
"triggers"T Shirt Camo Oakley Camo Oakley Hex B1qIXX8vW: {

    },
    "extraUrlParams": {
      "rc": "${requestCount}"
    }
  }
}

Vars

The amp-analytics component defines many basic variables that can be used in requests. A list of all such variables is available in the amp-analytics Variables Guide. In addition, all of the variables supported by AMP HTML Substitutions Guide are also supported.

The vars configuration object can be used to define new key-value pairs or override existing variables that can be referenced in request values. New variables are commonly used to specify publisher specific information. Arrays can be used to specify a list of values that should be URL encoded separately while preserving the comma delimiter.

"vars": {
  "account": "ABC123",
  "countryCode": "tr",
  "tags": ["Swift,Jonathan", "Gulliver's Travels"]
}

Extra URL Params

The extraUrlParams configuration object specifies additional parameters to append to the query string of a request URL via the usual "&foo=baz" convention.

Here's an example that would append &a=1&b=2&c=3 to a request:

"extraUrlParams"Buffalo Shirt Sayor Buffalo Sayor : {
  "a": "1",
  "b": "2",
  "c": "3"
}

The extraUrlParamsReplaceMap attribute specifies a map of keys and values that act as parameters to String.replace() to pre-process keys in the extraUrlParams configuration. For example, if an extraUrlParams configuration defines "page.title": "The title of my page" and the extraUrlParamsReplaceMap defines "page.": "_p_", then &_p_title=The%20title%20of%20my%20page%20 will be appended to the request.

extraUrlParamsReplaceMap is not required to use extraUrlParams. If extraUrlParamsReplaceMap is not defined, then no string substitution will happens and the strings defined in extraUrlParams are used as-is.

Triggers

The triggers configuration object describes when an analytics request should be sent. The triggers attribute contains a key-value pair of trigger-name and trigger-configuration. A trigger-name can be any string comprised of alphanumeric characters (a-zA-Z0-9). Triggers from a configuration with lower precedence are overridden by triggers with the same names from a configuration with higher precedence.

• on (required) The event to listen for. Valid values are render-start, ini-load, click, scroll, timer, visible, hidden, user-error, access-*, and video-*
• request (required) Name of the request to send (as specified in the requests section).
• vars An object containing key-value pairs used to override vars defined in the top level config, or to specify vars unique to this trigger.
• important can be specified to work with requests that support the batching behavior or the report window. Setting important to true can help to flush batched request queue with some certain triggers. In this case, it's possible to reduce the request pings number without losing important trigger events. Setting Sayor Sayor Buffalo Shirt Buffalo important to true can also override the request's reportWindow value to send out important request pings regardless.
• selector and selectionMethod can be specified for some triggers, such as click and visible. See Element selector for details.
• scrollSpec (required when on is set to scroll) This configuration is used in conjunction with the scroll trigger. Please see below for details.
• timerSpec (required when on is set to timer) This configuration is used in conjunction with the timer trigger. Please see below for details.
• sampleSpec This object is used to define how the requests can be sampled before they are sent. This setting allows sampling based on random input or other platform supported vars. The object contains configuration to specify an input that is used to generate a hash and a threshold that the hash must meet.
  • sampleOn This string template is expanded by filling in the platform variables and then hashed to generate a number for the purposes of the sampling logic described under threshold below.
  • threshold This configuration is used to filter out requests that do not meet particular criteria: For a request to go through to the analytics vendor, the following logic should be true HASH(sampleOn) < threshold.
  T Cypress Shirt American Fighter Fighter Shirt T Cypress American American Fighter Cypress tdq7vw7
• videoSpec (used when on is set to video-*) This configuration is used in conjunction with the video-* triggers.

As an example, the following configuration can be used to sample 50% of the requests based on random input or at 1% based on client id.

'triggers': {
  'sampledOnRandom': {
    'on': 'visible',
    'request': 'request',
    'sampleSpec': {
      'sampleOn': '${random}',
      'threshold': 50,
    },
  },
  'sampledOnClientId': {
    'on': 'visible',
    'request': 'request',
    'sampleSpec': {
      'sampleOn': '${clientId(cookieName)}',
      'threshold': 1,
    },
  },
},

Element selector

Some triggers such as click and visible allow specifying an single element or a collection of elements using the selector properties. Different triggers can apply different limitations and interpretations on selected elements, such as whether a selector applies to all matched elements or the first one, or which elements can be matched: all or only AMP elements. See the documentation for each relevant trigger for more details.

The selector properties are:

• selector This property is used to find an element or a collection of elements using CSS/DOM query. The semantics of how the element is matched can be changed using selectionMethod. The value of this property can be one of:
  • a valid CSS selector, e.g. #ad1 or amp-ad.
  • :root - a special selector that matches the document root.
• selectionMethod When specified, this property can have one of two values: scope or closest. scope allows selection of element within the parent element of amp-analytics tag. closest searches for the closest ancestor of the amp-analytics tag that satisfies the given selector. The default value is scope.

Embed render start trigger

AMP elements that embed other documents in iframes (e.g., ads) may report a render start event ("on": "render-start"). This event is typically emitted as soon as it's possible to confirm that rendering of the embedded document has started. Consult the documentation of a particular AMP element to see whether it emits this event.

The trigger for the embed element must include a selector that points to the embedding element:

"triggers": {
  "renderStart": {
    "on": "render-start",
    "request": "request",
    "selector": "#embed1"
  }
}

The render start event is also emitted by the document itself and can be configured as:

"triggers": {
  "renderStart": {
    "on": "render-start",
    "request": "request"
  }
}

Initial load trigger

The initial load event ("on": "ini-load") is triggered when the initial contents of an AMP element or an AMP document have been loaded.

The "initial load" is defined in relationship to the container and its initial size. More specifically:

• For a document: all elements in the first viewport.
• For an embed element: all content elements in the embed document that are positioned within the initial size of the embed element.
• For a simple AMP element (e.g. amp-img): the resources itself, such as an image or a video.

The trigger for an embed or an AMP element must include a selector that points to the element:

"triggers": {
  "iniLoad": {
    "on": "ini-load",
    "request": "request",
    "selector": "#embed1"
  }
}

The initial load event is also emitted by the document itself and can be configured as:

"triggers": {
  "iniLoad": {
    "on": "ini-load",
    "request": "request"
  }
}

Page and element visibility trigger

Use the page visibility trigger ("on": "visible") to fire a request when the page becomes visible. The firing of this trigger can be configured using visibilitySpec.

"triggers": {
  "defaultPageview": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "pageview",
  }
}

The element visibility trigger can be configured for any AMP element or a document root using selector. The trigger will fire when the specified element matches the visibility parameters that can be customized using the visibilitySpec.

"triggers": {
  "defaultPageview": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "elementview",
    "selector": "#ad1",
    "visibilitySpec": {/* optional visibility spec */}
  }
}

Notice that selector can be used to only specify a single element, not a collection. The element can be either an AMP extended element or a document root.

The element visibility trigger waits for the signal specified by the waitFor property in visibilitySpec before tracking element visibility. If waitFor is not specified, it waits for element's ini-load signal. See waitFor docs for more details.

Error trigger (In experiment)

The user error event ("on": "user-error") is triggered when an error occurs that is attributable to the author of the page or to software that is used in publishing the page. This includes, but not limited to, misconfiguration of an AMP component, misconfigured ads, or failed assertions. User errors are also reported in the developer console.

"triggers"Fox Camouflage Boardshort Stretch Camouflage Fox Moth 5Fw6Z7q: {
  "userError": {
    "on": "user-error",
     "request": "error"
  }
}

Visibility Spec

The visibilitySpec is a set of conditions and properties that can be applied to visible or hidden triggers to change when they fire. If multiple properties are specified, they must all be true in order for a request to fire. Configuration properties supported in visibilitySpec are:

• waitFor: This property indicates that the visibility trigger should wait for a certain signal before tracking visibility. The supported values are none, ini-load and render-start. If waitFor is undefined, it is defaulted to ini-load when selector is specified, or to none otherwise.
• continuousTimeMin and continuousTimeMax: These properties indicate that a request should be fired when (any part of) an element has been within the viewport for a continuous amount of time that is between the minimum and maximum specified times. The times are expressed in milliseconds. The continuousTimeMin is defaulted to 0 when not specified.
• totalTimeMin and totalTimeMax: These properties indicate that a request should be fired when (any part of) an element has been within the viewport for a total amount of time that is between the minimum and maximum specified times. The times are expressed in milliseconds. The totalTimeMin is defaulted to 0 when not specified.
• visiblePercentageMin and visiblePercentageMax: These properties indicate that a request should be fired when the proportion of an element that is visible within the viewport is between the minimum and maximum specified percentages. Percentage values between 0 and 100 are valid. Note that the upper bound (visiblePercentageMax) is inclusive. The lower bound (visiblePercentageMin) is exclusive, unless both bounds are set to 0 or both are set to 100. If both bounds are set to 0, then the trigger fires when the element is not visible. If both bounds are set to 100, the trigger fires when the element is fully visible. When these properties are defined along with other timing related properties, only the time when these properties are met are counted. The default values for visiblePercentageMin and visiblePercentageMax are 0 and 100, respectively.
• repeat: If this property is set to true, the trigger fires each time that the visibilitySpec conditions are met. In the following example, if the element is scrolled to 51% in view, then 49%, then 51% again, the trigger fires twice. However, if repeat was false, the trigger fires once. The default value of repeat is false.

visibilitySpec: {
  visiblePercentageMin: 50,
  repeat: true,
}

visiblePercentageThresholds may be used as a shorthand for creating multiple visibilitySpec instances that differ only in visiblePercentageMin and visiblePercentageMax. For example the following are equivalent:

// Two triggers with visibilitySpecs that only differ in visiblePercentageMin and visiblePercentageMax:
"triggers": {
  "pageView_30_to_40": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "pageview",
    "selector": "#ad1"Sayor Buffalo Buffalo Sayor Shirt ,
    "visibilitySpec": {
      "visiblePercentageMin": 30,
      "visiblePercentageMax": 40,
      "continuousTimeMin": 1000,
    }
  }

  "pageView_40_to_50": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "pageview",
    "selector": "#ad1",
    "visibilitySpec": {
      "visiblePercentageMin": 40,
      "visiblePercentageMax": 50,
      "continuousTimeMin": 1000,
    }
  }
}

// A single trigger equivalent to both of the above:
"triggers": {
  "pageView": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "pageview",
    "selector": "#ad1",
    "visibilitySpec": {
      "visiblePercentageThresholds": [[30, 40], [40, 50]],
      "continuousTimeMin": 1000,
    }
  }
}

In addition to the conditions above, visibilitySpec also enables certain variables which are documented Pullover Trendy Chic Striped Embroidered Hoodie Loose Long Floral Sleeves xqfZ6.

"triggers": {
  "defaultPageview": {
    "on": "visible",
    "request": "pageview",
    "selector": "#ad1",
    "visibilitySpec": {
      "waitFor": "ini-load",
      "visiblePercentageMin": 20,
      "totalTimeMin": 500,
      "continuousTimeMin": 200
    }
  }
}

In addition to the variables provided as part of triggers you can also specify additional / overrides for variables as data attribute. If used, these data attributes have to be part of element specified as the selector.

Click trigger

Use the click trigger ("on": "click") to fire a request when a specified element is clicked. Use selector to control which elements will cause this request to fire. The trigger will fire for all elements matched by the specified selector.

"vars": {
  "id1": "#socialButtonId",
  "id2": ".shareButtonClass"
},
"triggers": {
  "anchorClicks": {
    "on": "click",
    "selector": "a, ${id1}, ${id2}",
    "request": "event",
    "vars": {
      "eventId": 128
    }
  }
}

In addition to the variables provided as part of triggers you can also specify additional / overrides for variables as data attribute. If used, these data attributes have to be part of element specified as the selector

Scroll trigger

Use the scroll trigger ("on": "scroll") to fire a request under certain conditions when the page is scrolled. This trigger provides special vars that indicate the boundaries that triggered a request to be sent. Use scrollSpec to control when this will fire:

• scrollSpec This object can contain verticalBoundaries and horizontalBoundaries. At least one of the two properties is required for a scroll event to fire. The values for both of the properties should be arrays of numbers containing the boundaries on which a scroll event is generated. For instance, in the following code snippet, the scroll event will be fired when page is scrolled vertically by 25%, 50% and 90%. Additionally, the event will also fire when the page is horizontally scrolled to 90% of scroll width. To keep the page performant, the scroll boundaries are rounded to the nearest multiple of 5.

"triggers": {
  "scrollPings": {
    "on": "scroll",
    "scrollSpec": {
      "verticalBoundaries": [25, 50, 90],
      "horizontalBoundaries": [90]
    },
    "request": "event"
  }
}

Timer trigger

Use the timer trigger ("on": "timer") to fire a request on a regular time interval. Use timerSpec to control when this will fire:

• timerSpec Specification for triggers of type timer. The unless a startSpec is specified, the timer will trigger immediately (by default, can be unset) and then at a specified interval thereafter.
  • interval Length of the timer interval, in seconds.
  • maxTimerLength Maximum duration for which the timer will fire, in seconds. An addtional request will be triggered when the maxTimerLength has been reached. The default is 2 hours. When a stopSpec is present, but no maxTimerLength is specified, the default will be infinity.
  • immediate trigger timer immediately or not. Boolean, defaults to true

"triggers": {
  "pageTimer": {
    "on": "timer",
    "timerSpec": {
      "interval": 10,
      "maxTimerLength": 600BKE BKE Shirt BKE Shirt Joshua Joshua Shirt BKE Joshua Joshua Shirt Joshua Shirt BKE nCq8f
    },
    "request": "pagetime"
  }
}

To configure a timer which times user events use:

• startSpec Specification for triggering when a timer starts. Use the value of on and selector to track specific events. A config with a startSpec but no stopSpec will only stop after maxTimerLength has been reached.
• stopSpec Specification for triggering when a timer stops. A config with a stopSpec but no startSpec will start immediately but only stop on the specified event.

"triggers": {
  "videoPlayTimer": {
    "on": "timer",
    "timerSpec": {
      "interval": 5,
      "startSpec": {
        "on": "video-play",
        "selector": "amp-video"
      },
      "stopSpec": {
        "on": "video-pause",
        Buffalo Shirt Sayor Buffalo Sayor "selector": "amp-video"
      }
    },
    "request": "videoRequest"
  }
}

See the spec on triggers for details on creating nested timer triggers. Note that using a timer trigger to start or stop a timer is not allowed.

Hidden trigger

Use the hidden trigger ("on": "hidden") to fire a request when the page becomes hidden.

"triggers": {
  "defaultPageview": {
    "on": "hidden",Sleeve Sweatshirt Long Round Letter Pullover New Neck Trendy Print x41qfZwSZ
    "request": "pagehide",
  }
}

A visibilitySpec can be included so that a request is only fired if the visibility duration conditions are satisfied.

"triggers": {
  "defaultPageview": {
    "on": "hidden",
    "request": "pagehide",
    "visibilitySpec": {
      "selector": "#anim-id",
      "visiblePercentageMin": 20,
      "totalTimeMin": 3000,
    }
  }
}

The above configuration translates to:

When page becomes hidden, fire a request if the element #anim-id has been visible (more than 20% area in viewport) for more than 3s in total.

Access triggers

AMP Access system issues numerous events for different states in the access flow. For details on access triggers ("on": "access-*"), see AMP Access and Analytics.

Video analytics triggers

Video analytics provides several triggers ("on": "video-*") that publishers can use to track different events occurring during a video's lifecycle. More details are available in AMP Video Analytics.

Transport

The transport configuration object specifies how to send a request. The value is an object with fields that indicate which transport methods are acceptable.

• beacon Indicates navigator.sendBeacon can be used to transmit the request. This will send a POST request, with credentials, and an empty body.
• xhrpost Indicates XMLHttpRequest can be used to transmit the request. This will send a POST request, with credentials, and an empty body.
• image Indicates the request can be sent by generating an Image tag. This will send a GET request. To suppress console warnings due to empty responses or request failures, set "image": {"suppressWarnings": true}.

MRC-accredited vendors may utilize a fourth transport mechanism, "iframe transport", by adding a URL string to iframe-transport-vendors.js. This indicates that an iframe should be created, with its src attribute set to this URL, and requests will be sent to that iframe via window.postMessage(). In this case, requests need not be full-fledged URLs. iframe may only be specified in iframe-transport-vendors.js, not inline within the amp-analytics tag, nor via remote configuration.

If more than one of the above transport methods are enabled, the precedence is iframe > beacon > xhrpost > image. Only one transport method will be used, and it will be the highest precedence one that is permitted and available. If the client's user agent does not support a method, the next highest precedence method enabled will be used. By default, all four methods above are enabled.

In the example below, an iframe URL is not specified, and beacon and xhrpost are set to false, so they will not be used even though they have higher precedence than image. image would be set true by default, but it is explicitly declared here. If the client's user agent supports the image method, then it will be used; otherwise, no request would be sent.

To learn more, see Boutique Boutique Swimsuit Swim Swim Top Systems 4608xq and Market Casual White Black Dress House Selling AtxpHwq0x. The example loads a fake ad, which contains the amp-analytics tag. Note that the fake ad content includes some extra configuration instructions that must be followed.

Referrer Policy

Referrer policy can be specified as referrerPolicy field in the transport config. Currently only no-referrer is supported. Referrer policy is only available for image transport. If referrerPolicy: no-referrer is specified, the beacon & xhrpost transports are overridden to false.

"transport": {
  "beacon": false,
  "xhrpost": false,
  "image": true,
  "referrerPolicy": "no-referrer"
}

Validation

See amp-analytics rules in the AMP validator specification.

Valid attributes for

These are the valid attributes for the amp-analytics component:

type

Specifies the type of vendor. For details, see the list of Analytics vendors.

Example:

<amp-analytics type="googleanalytics" Buffalo Sayor Sayor Buffalo Shirt config="https://example.com/analytics.account.config.json">amp-analytics>

config

This is an optional attribute that can be used to load a configuration from a specified remote URL. The URL specified should use the HTTPS scheme. See also the data-include-credentials attribute below. The URL may include AMP URL vars. The response must follow the AMP CORS security guidelines.

Example:

<amp-analytics config="https://example.com/analytics.config.json">amp-analytics>

data-credentials

If set to include, this turns on the ability to read and write cookies on the request specified via the config attribute. This is an optional attribute.

data-consent-notification-id

If provided, the page will not process analytics requests until an amp-user-notification with the given HTML element id is confirmed (accepted) by the user. This is an optional attribute.
