Google Analytics for Widgets
From KickApps API Reference
Installing Google Analytics in widgets
To install Google Analytics in your widgets, log in to Google Analytics and copy the Web Property ID (looks like UA-xxxxx-yy) of the website profile in which you'd like to track your widgets. Then, back in the App Studio, paste this ID into the Tracking panel of any widget that you wish to track (find the Tracking panel under Window > Tracking).
Once Google approves your application to the Event Tracking beta, a new Events section will appear under the Content panel in your reports.
Supported Events
The Google Analytics integration currently supports the following events:
- Widget views
- Widget views are recorded in Google Analytics as "pageviews", where the "pageview" entry is a long string composed of Affiliate Site ("AS") ID/Widget ID/encoded URL on which the widget was viewed.
