How to track an image tracker in a goal

Support & Bugs
1

Hi,

our CRM creates a Piwik Image Tracker on this way:

noscript>

The question is how to track on the most professional way. The information given back by the image tracker is always different because the CRM variable “contacts-lastname” depends on the person who got the mail.

My wish is just to get a list with names who opened the mails. The content of the variable contacts-lastname should be indicated in Piwik under Actions / Page names or anywhere else.

Is it possible to create one goal which would indicate all the persons who open the mail. How can I define this goal?:

  • I cannot set Keywords because they are always different.
  • I cannot set an URL because there is no URL at image tracking.

Thank you very much for your help.

With kind regards,

I.

I recommend you use Custom Variables: Custom Variables Analytics - Analytics Platform - Matomo

There is an example request tracking custom variables to the piwik.php script at: Tracking API - Analytics Platform - Matomo

Thank you. You mean this was, do not you?

“http://piwik-server/piwik.php?_cvar={“1”:[“OS”,“iphone 5.0”],“2”:[“Piwik Mobile Version”,“1.6.2”],“3”:[“Locale”,“en::en”],“4”:[“Num Accounts”,“2”]}&action_name=View settings&url=http://mobileapp.piwik.org/window/settings &idsite=8876&rand=351459​&h=18&m=13&s=3​ &rec=1&apiv=1​&cookie=​ &urlref=http://iphone.mobileapp.piwik.org​&_id=af344a398df83874​ &_idvc=19​&res=320×480&”

If understand well this would make it possible to track $contacts-lastname$ that would be in each mail different.

In mein case it should be look like:

“InterNetX: Domains, Server und SSL-Zertifikate für Profis!”"

All the other parameter are not necessary.

Thank you for confirming if it is Ok.

Regards

I.

You can test it by loading the URL yourself. It is missing at least the &rec=1
