Integrating Heap Analytics with PeakCommerce for User Behavior Tracking

Heap Analytics is a robust analytics platform that automatically captures every user interaction on your website or application. From clicks to form submissions, Heap tracks it all without the need for manual event tracking, providing you with a comprehensive view of user behavior.

On the other hand, PeakCommerce is a leading e-commerce platform designed to optimize the online shopping experience. It empowers businesses to create seamless storefronts, commerce pages, subscription management, and more.

Integrating Heap Analytics with PeakCommerce allows you to leverage the strengths of both platforms to gain a deeper understanding of your customers and their journey through your online store.

1. Comprehensive Data Collection: Heap automatically captures user interactions, while PeakCommerce provides detailed transactional data. By integrating the two, you get a holistic view of your customers' behavior from the first click to the final purchase.

2. Personalized Insights: With Heap's robust tracking capabilities and PeakCommerce's transactional data, you can create highly personalized experiences for your customers. Understand which products they're browsing, what motivates their purchases, and how you can tailor your offerings to better meet their needs.

3. Optimized Conversions: By analyzing user behavior across the entire customer journey, you can identify friction points and optimize your website to drive conversions. Whether it's streamlining the checkout process or refining product recommendations, integrating Heap Analytics with PeakCommerce helps you make data-driven decisions to boost sales.

Integrating Heap Analytics with PeakCommerce is a straightforward process that can be done in just a few simple steps:

1. Access Your Heap Analytics Account: Log in to your Heap Analytics account and navigate to the "Settings" section.

2. Obtain the installation code: In the left navigation, click the install link. Follow the steps to retrieve the installation code you will use to install in PeakCommerce.

3. Install in PeakCommerce: In your PeakCommerce environment, navigate to User Interface from the left hand navigation. Click on Layouts and select the layout you wish to install it in. Install the code in the Head tag and click save.

4. Map Events: Once the integration is set up, you can start mapping Heap events to PeakCommerce actions. For example, you can track when users add items to their cart or complete a purchase.

5. Monitor and Analyze: With the integration in place, you can now monitor user behavior in real-time and analyze the data to gain valuable insights into your customers' preferences and habits.

The code will have the form:

<script type="text/javascript">
  window.heap=window.heap||[],heap.load=function(e,t){window.heap.appid=e,window.heap.config=t=t||{};var r=document.createElement("script");r.type="text/javascript",r.async=!0,r.src="https://cdn.heapanalytics.com/js/heap-"+e+".js";var a=document.getElementsByTagName("script")[0];a.parentNode.insertBefore(r,a);for(var n=function(e){return function(){heap.push([e].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,0)))}},p=["addEventProperties","addUserProperties","clearEventProperties","identify","resetIdentity","removeEventProperty","setEventProperties","track","unsetEventProperty"],o=0;o<p.length;o++)heap[p[o]]=n(p[o])};
  heap.load("yourprojectid");
</script>

Please note in the above Heap code example, the heap.load("yourprojectid") will need to be updated with your actual Heap Project Id. We recommend copying the code directly from Heap analytics and not suing the code above as it may become outdated.
