Specify trigger conditions

To trigger signals based on specific user interactions, specify the CSS selectors that correspond to those interactions.

In the CSS Selector field, enter the CSS selector(s) that match the element(s) you want to track. You can optionally set up additional conditions for trigger like checking URL path.

Example: .lead-singal-button to track clicks on a button with the class name lead-singal-button.

Define Custom Signal Triggers and User Data Mappings

1. Go to the Funnels page.
2. Click Parameters manager to setup parameter mappings.

3. Press Add parameter. The following image serves as an example of setting up parameter mapping for email field.
