Configure the event tracking for Google Analytics

To configure event tracking for Google Analytics, you will need a Google Analytics account with a configured property and a UA-XXXXXXXX-X number configured for your site.

Once you configured your Google Analytics account and got your UA-XXXXXXXX-X number, you can use it on the Webhooks section of your Data Fair account.

When you are on the settings page, you can add an 'External calls' using the + button.
A window appears to configure your call.
Fill in the title, the trigger events you want to track from the list, then choose Google Analytics as the target type.
In the Tracker ID section, enter your UA-XXXXXXXX-X number.

Once your webhook is validated, you will have a rendering like this:
