Form Submission Tracking
What is Form Tracking?
#Form tracking allows you to monitor when users submit forms on your website. This helps you understand user interactions, improve conversions, and optimize form performance.

How Does It Work?
#Userbird automatically tracks form submissions on your website. When a user submits a form, the system records the event and sends the data to your analytics dashboard.
What Information is Captured?
#When a form is submitted, the following details are recorded:
- Form Name – Identified by its
idornameattribute, or a default name based on the page URL. - Page URL – The webpage where the form submission occurred.
- Timestamp – The exact time the form was submitted.
How to Enable Form Tracking?
#No additional setup is required! Once Userbird is installed on your site, form tracking works automatically. Any <form> element on your page will be detected and logged when submitted.
Viewing Form Submission Data
#You can view form submission data in your analytics dashboard under the "Form Submissions" section. This will show you:
- The number of form submissions.
- The most frequently submitted forms.
- The pages where forms are being submitted.
Tracking JavaScript-Based Form Submissions
#If your forms are submitted using JavaScript (e.g., via AJAX or fetch), you can manually trigger a form submission event using the userbirdq.push() method:
userbirdq.push(['form_submit', {
form_name: 'Form Name'
}])
Replace 'Form Name' with the actual name or identifier of your form. This ensures that all JavaScript-based form submissions are properly tracked in your analytics dashboard.
Limitations
#Userbird automatically tracks standard HTML form submissions. For JavaScript-based or AJAX form submissions, you need to manually track them using the code snippet above.
Benefits of Form Tracking
#- Optimize user experience – Identify and fix problematic forms.
- Measure engagement – Understand which forms are performing best.
- Increase conversions – Make data-driven decisions to improve form completion rates.
