Hashed URL in Custom Behavioral Events

sethnenstiel — Mon, 31 Jul 2023 16:03:17 GMT

Is there the ability to track hashes appended to URLs in Custom Behavioral Events?

When people progress through a web app, we hash the URL and want to track the changes in place in the app.

someurl.com/app#start

someurl.com/app#product

someurl.com/app#checkout

Like that, firing an event at each URL change.

Hi @sethnenstiel,

I haven't tested this out myself personally but I would imagine you can create custom behavioral events based on URL click for each of the URL strings you mention with the appended hash values. I'd recommend creating an event for each URL and testing to see if you're seeing the data you desire. If you're still running into issues, let me know.

Oh – you’re response has given me a new idea about how I may be implementing incorrectly. Let me check!

So I've built out events for each of the URL changes when Hashes are added – but I'm not seeing them get tracked. There are 10 events in total. Any other thoughts?
