I know matomo have media analytic plugins to track detail record from the youtube. However, I only need simple way to trigger event if someone click play the button, is there any simple way to capture youtube on iframe?
I see one of post that do exactly what i want, the question is I don’t know how to put it on matomo tag manager,
is it on the trigger section or tag custom html section?
I tried put it on tag custom html section but I don’t know what is the trigger should I use?
any reference or how to solve this simple thing will be appreciated, thank you.
Certainly! For your specific requirement, place the YouTube tracking script in the “Tag Custom HTML” section in Matomo Tag Manager. Since you want to trigger an event when someone clicks the play button, you can set up a trigger related to the “play” action. Ensure the trigger is configured to fire when the play button is clicked. This setup will capture YouTube interactions effectively.
Hi thank you for your reply,
I noticed to put the tracking script at “Tag Custom HTML”.
but I still don’t know how to put trigger, for example I put iframe id as “youtube-id”, but it won’t trigger from the matomo, I notice that iframe only triggered by the frame (not the content), is there any other way or i just put it on the wrong way?
