Tracking and Consent Functions
Create Tracker
create (<integer> piAId, <integer> piCId, <string> tracker domain hostname)
Creates the Pardot tracker necessary for analytics. Add 1000 to the Pardot account ID (piAId) and the campaign ID (piCId).
Example
Set Tracked Properties
set(<string> propertyName, value)
Return: undefined
Updates the value of a tracked property. Subsequent page views sent to Pardot include the updated property value. See Writeable Analytics Parameters for the properties that support updates.
Example
Send Page View
sendPageView()
Return: undefined
Sends a page view to Pardot that includes the current values of Tracker object properties. If the value of the pi_opt_in cookie is false, then no request is made.
Example
Show Consent Banner
showConsentBanner()
Shows the Pardot consent banner, allowing the visitor to choose to give consent to Pardot analytics tracking.
Example
Hide Consent Banner
hideConsentBanner(<null|boolean > status)
Hide the Pardot consent banner from the page. If true or false is given, the pi_opt_in status is updated. If null is given, the banner is hidden and the status isn't updated.
Example
Set Opt In
setOptIn(<boolean> status)
Set the value of the pi_opt_in cookie. Pardot analytics only records page views when the value of this cookie is true.
Example
Revoke Consent
revokeConsent()
Return: undefined
Deletes any existing visitor tracking cookies and sets the pi_opt_in cookie value to false.
If the pi_opt_in cookie is true or unset a page view request is sent to Pardot. If your Pardot account settings require the visitor to give consent based on their geo, then no page view is recorded and the Pardot consent banner is displayed.
Example
Clear Tracking Cookies
clearTrackingCookies()
Deletes all Pardot tracking cookies.
Example
Adding analytics actions to the queue is the primary way to interact with Pardot analytics. To retrieve data from the Pardot analytics tracker, pass a callback function into the queue. The callback function is executed when the queue is processed and it is passed a reference to the Pardot tracker.
Since analytics is processed asynchronously, interacting with tracked values must be done within a callback function that is processed after the analytics library has loaded. In this example the current consent status is fetched, which then can be used to gate logic on your web page.
Get Property Value
get(<string> propertyName)
Return: mixed
Returns the value of a tracked property.
Example
Get Consent Status
getConsentStatus()
Return: null|boolean
Returns the current consent status for the Pardot tracker. If no consent status has been set, null is returned.
Example
