Impressions

Generate the URL from PHP and use a lazy loader that loads the tracking pixel when visible in the browser window. If you do not have a compatible lazy loader we recommend using this lazy loader which is written in vanilla js.

For most compatibility - place the script below before your </body> tag.

<script type="text/javascript">
    (function(w, d){
        var b = d.getElementsByTagName('body')[0];
        var s = d.createElement("script"); s.async = true;
        var v = !("IntersectionObserver" in w) ? "8.5.2" : "10.3.5";
        s.src = "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vanilla-lazyload/" + v + "/lazyload.min.js";
        w.lazyLoadOptions = {
            threshold: 0
        };
        b.appendChild(s);
    }(window, document));
</script>

Generating impression URL

// Create the URL Builder with your tracking domain & secret
const { UrlBuilder } = require("analytics-node");
const urlBuilder = new UrlBuilder("analytics.mydomain.sh", "secret");

// Create the impression passing on UrlBuilder, program id and optional dimensions 1-3
const impression = new Impression(
    urlBuilder,
    "123",
    "a",
    "b",
    "c",
    "d",
    "e"
);


// Get the URL for the tracking pixel 
const url = impression.url

// Or output image tag for lazy load
const tag = impression.image
