Overview

This node integrates with the Matomo API to perform various operations related to the Heatmap Session Recording resource, specifically supporting the 'Update Heatmap' operation among many others. It allows users to update settings for an existing heatmap by sending appropriate API requests to Matomo. This node is useful for users who want to programmatically manage heatmap configurations in Matomo, such as updating heatmap parameters or settings without manual intervention in the Matomo UI.

Use Case Examples

1. Updating heatmap settings for a specific site by providing the heatmap ID and new configuration parameters in the request body.
2. Automating heatmap updates as part of a larger analytics workflow to keep heatmap data current and relevant.
