forceCommunity:analyticsInteraction

Tracks events triggered by custom components in Communities and sends the data to Google Analytics.

For example, you could create a custom button and include the forceCommunity:analyticsInteraction event in the button's client-side controller. Clicking the button sends event data to Google Analytics.

1onClick : function(cmp, event, helper) {
2    var analyticsInteraction = $A.get("e.forceCommunity:analyticsInteraction");
3    analyticsInteraction.setParams({
4        hitType : 'event',
5        eventCategory : 'Button',
6        eventAction : 'click',
7        eventLabel : 'Winter Campaign Button',
8        eventValue: 200
9    });
10    analyticsInteraction.fire();
11}

This event is supported in Lightning communities only. To enable event tracking, add your Google Analytics tracking ID in Settings | Advanced in Community Builder and publish the community.
Google Analytics isn’t supported in sandbox environments.
