Getting started with Trackingplan

Getting started with Trackingplan takes three simple steps:

1. Create a free account to generate your Trackingplan snippet. Install it via Google Tag Manager, by adding a lightweight code snippet to your site's head section, or via iOS and Android SDKs for apps — no code changes to your existing tracking required.

2. Trackingplan automatically starts discovering and documenting all analytics traffic sent to your integrations. No manual configuration needed.

3. Once your dashboard is ready, explore all events, pixels, UTMs, and campaigns automatically discovered. Invite your team, customize your alerts, and start resolving the issues Trackingplan has already spotted.

Trackingplan starts monitoring your data in real time immediately after installation — no lengthy setup, no code changes to your existing tracking. Depending on your traffic volume, your dashboard can be ready in as little as one hour. For lower-traffic sites, it may take up to a week. You will receive an email notification as soon as enough data has been collected and your dashboard is ready.

Don't worry, this is completely normal. Trackingplan will start documenting all the traffic you’re sending to all your integrations right after its installation automatically. That means that, for companies with a lot of traffic, an hour can be enough to recollect the necessary data for our backend to understand what each piece of data means, identify patterns, detect anomalies, and automatically connect dots to create value from data that was hidden in plain sight.

That is the reason why, for companies with small traffic, the process of automatically documenting all the data your customers are sending to all of your integrations with stats and examples might take a little bit longer. We will send you a message once we have collected enough data!

In any case, after installing Trackingplan, we highly recommend you follow these easy steps in order to verify Trackingplan is up and running on your platform and collecting data:

Hurray! After automatically documenting all the necessary data to understand what each piece of data means, identify patterns, detect anomalies, and automatically connect dots to create value from data that was hidden in plain sight, it's your time to dig into all the destinations, schemas, events, pixels, and campaigns Trackingplan’s algorithm has discovered for you.

Onboard all the members involved in the data collection process to ensure everyone is on the same page, customize your warnings so that we can warn you according to your specifications, add regexes and enums to validate your events, and start tackling all the errors that are compromising the quality of your data and that Trackingplan has spotted.

We also recommend you have a look at our Learning Center and Trackingplan's Youtube Channel to squeeze the value of Trackingplan to the max.
