Form Submission Tracking
What is Form Tracking?#
Form tracking allows you to monitor when users submit forms on your website. This helps you understand user interactions, improve conversions, and optimize form performance.
How Does It Work?#
Glass Analytics automatically tracks form submissions on your website. When a user submits a form, the system records the event and sends the data to your analytics dashboard.
What Information is Captured?#
When a form is submitted, the following details are recorded:
- Form Name – Identified by its
idornameattribute, or a default name based on the page URL. - Page URL – The webpage where the form submission occurred.
- Timestamp – The exact time the form was submitted.
How to Enable Form Tracking?#
No additional setup is required! Once Glass Analytics is installed on your site, form tracking works automatically. Any <form> element on your page will be detected and logged when submitted.
Viewing Form Submission Data#
You can view form submission data in your analytics dashboard under the "Form Submissions" section. This will show you:
- The number of form submissions.
- The most frequently submitted forms.
- The pages where forms are being submitted.
Limitations#
Glass only tracks normal HTML forms. Forms submitted via Javascript are not tracked, but you can track these using custom event tracking.
Benefits of Form Tracking#
- Optimize user experience – Identify and fix problematic forms.
- Measure engagement – Understand which forms are performing best.
- Increase conversions – Make data-driven decisions to improve form completion rates.
