Sending Yespo Widget Events to Google Analytics
You can send the event data related to the interaction of users with your Yespo widgets to your Google Analytics (GA) account.
Yespo supports the Universal Analytics and Google Analytics 4 scripts for tracking events on your website.
Important
It is recommended to install the Google Analytics 4 script, since the Google Universal Analytics property will stop processing data starting on July 1, 2023 (July 1, 2024, for Analytics 360 properties).
You have to install the script, using one of the following methods:
- Setting up GA4 script for a website (directly into the website code).
- Setting up GA4 in GTM.
After that, you have to enable exporting the widget event data to Google Analytics.
The entry point for events depends on the method you use to install the script:
- If there is GoogleAnalytics3 (ga), send into it.
- If there is dataLayer and there is gtag and dataLayer has at least one G-* tag:
- Then call gtag with parameters (send_to is added) for each tag id.
- Otherwise, we write to dataLayer.
Setting Up GA4 Script for a Website
To set up the Google Analytics GA4 script for a website:
1. In your GA account, select the Admin icon to open the GA settings.
2. Click Create property.
3. In the Property setup, enter the property name, select the country, the time zone and the currency, then click Next.
4. In About your business, select the items describing your business, and click Create.
5. In your created property menu, select the Data Streams item and click the Web icon.
6. In the slideout menu, enter the website URL and the stream name in the corresponding boxes, then click Create stream.
7. In the Web stream details menu, click the copy icon beside the Measurement ID.
8. Go to your site and insert the following code after the <head> tag, where substitute MEASUREMENT_ID with the one copied in the previous step.
<!-- Google Analytics -->
<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id={MEASUREMENT_ID}"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', '{MEASUREMENT_ID}');
</script>
Setting Up GA4 in GTM
Before proceeding to setting up GA4 in GTM, you have to:
1. Create a GTM account and a container following these instructions.

| Variable Type | Data Layer Variable Name | Data Layer Version |
|---|---|---|
| Data Layer Variable | eventAction | Version 2 |
| Data Layer Variable | eventCategory | Version 2 |
| Data Layer Variable | eventLabel | Version 2 |
10. Go to Tags in the left-hand side menu, and create a new tag with the following configuration, then click Save:
- Select Google Analytics: GA4 Event as Tag Type.
- Select the tag you created at step 3 as Configuration Tag.
- Enter sputnik as the event name.

All the event data collected for that widget will be passed automatically to your GA account.

The form ID is displayed in Yespo, on the Widgets page in the ID column.
