Use the Matomo API

Actions539

Overview

This node integrates with the Matomo API to perform various operations related to web analytics and tracking. Specifically, for the 'Form' resource and 'Get Entry Fields' operation, it retrieves data about the fields where users started filling out a form. This is useful for analyzing user interaction with forms on a website, identifying which fields attract user attention, and optimizing form design to improve completion rates.

Use Case Examples

  1. A marketing analyst wants to understand which fields in a signup form users begin to fill out most frequently to optimize the form layout.
  2. A website owner wants to track user engagement with different form fields to identify potential drop-off points early in the form filling process.

Properties

Name Meaning
Query Parameters A collection of optional parameters to filter or specify the data to retrieve from the Matomo API for the form entry fields. These parameters can include filters like form ID, date range, site ID, and other Matomo-specific query options.

Output

JSON

  • fieldName - The name or identifier of the form field where users started entering data.
  • entryCount - The number of times users started filling out this particular field.
  • additionalMetrics - Any other metrics or data points returned by the Matomo API related to form entry fields.

Dependencies

  • Requires Matomo API credentials including domain URL and authentication token.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the Matomo API credentials (domain and auth token) are correctly configured; missing credentials will cause the node to throw an error.
  • Verify that the 'resource' is set to 'Form' and the 'operation' is set to 'Get Entry Fields' to use this specific functionality.
  • Check the query parameters for correctness and compatibility with the Matomo API to avoid request errors.
  • If the API response is empty or returns a 204 status, verify that the form ID and date range parameters correspond to existing data in Matomo.
