Simply go to the Analytics Integration plugin submenu to turn on the Analytics integration.
- Events Tracking - Allows you tracking all sorts of events, such as input focus, live search, facet changes etc.. with customizable parameters

In this mode, analytics event triggers can be enabled for specific search events. To enable a an event trigger, click on the "On/Off" button on the desired section.
For each event, you can set up the Event Action, Label, Category and Event value. Please check the About Events documentation to understand what they are.
Each event has a list of variables, that can be used within that event fields.
The variables are replaced with the corresponding values:
- {search_id} - The search instance ID
- {search_name} - The search instance name
- {phrase} - The search phrase entered
- {results_count} - The number of results ("unknown", when not available)
- {option_name} - The facet option legend name, when the user clicks on a facet
- {option_value} - The facet option value or label name, when the user clicks on a facet
- {result_title} - The result title, when the user clicks on a live result
- {result_url} - The reulst URL, when the user clicks on a live result
After a successful integration, the events will start showing up on the Google Analitycs real time Events panel, as well as in the events section under the Engagement panel after a few days.
