Integrating Gooddata with Nuxt.js

Adding Gooddata to your Nuxt.js project is a simple, straightforward process. Follow the step-by-step instructions below to start tracking your visitors without compromising their privacy.

Step 1: Copy Your Project ID

Before you begin, you need your unique Gooddata Project ID.

1. Log in to your Gooddata Dashboard.
2. Select your project from the sidebar.
3. Click on the Settings gear icon in the bottom left.
4. Copy the Project ID or the provided tracking snippet block.

Step 2: Add the Script to Nuxt Config

Nuxt makes it very easy to add external scripts globally using your configuration file.

1. Open nuxt.config.ts (or nuxt.config.js) in your project root.
2. Add the script object into the app.head.script array.
3. Replace <YOUR_PROJECT_ID> with your actual ID.

// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  app: {
    head: {
      script: [
        { 
          src: 'https://gooddata-fyp.onrender.com/sdk/tracker.js', 
          defer: true, 
          'data-project-id': '<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>' 
        }
      ]
    }
  }
})

Step 3: Verify the Installation

Once you have added the script and published your changes, it's time to test if Gooddata is receiving data.

1. Open your live website in a new incognito/private browsing window.
2. Navigate to a few different pages.
3. Return to your Gooddata Dashboard and go to the Realtime tab.
4. You should see "1 Active Visitor" and your recent page views populating instantly.

Troubleshooting: If you don't see any data, make sure you don't have an adblocker enabled that might be blocking the script, and ensure you replaced <YOUR_PROJECT_ID> with your actual ID.
