Web Tracker Installation

To begin tracking your users, you must first decide whether you want to use the JavaScript Snippet or the JavaScript SDK.

JavaScript Snippet​

The easiest way to install ezbot is to use our JavaScript Snippet. The JavaScript Snippet is a small piece of code that you add to your website. It will automatically load the ezbot library and start tracking your users.

If you're using a website builder like Wix, Squarespace, or WebFlow and you don't have access or the desire to modify your source code, the JavaScript Snippet is the best way to get started.

JS Snippet Pros/Cons

Pros

  • Easy to install
  • Works with any website builder
  • Doesn't require a developer
  • Enables our Visual Editor

Cons

  • Only supports experimentation with our Visual Editor
  • Limited number of visual changes supported at this time
  • Can affect page load performance more than the JS SDK
  • Can cause content to change after page load, though most users don't notice it

To use the JavaScript Snippet, follow one of the installation methods below.

JavaScript SDK​

If you're a developer and you want to integrate ezbot directly into your website or app, you can use our JavaScript SDK. The JavaScript SDK is a more powerful and performant way to integrate ezbot and gives you more control over how you use the platform.

JS SDK Pros/Cons

Pros

  • Control any aspect of your frontend
  • Most performant installation
  • Also enables our Visual Editor

Cons

  • Requires a developer (or someone who can code) to add and use variations in your website or app's language.
  • Does not support Node (server-side) yet.

To install the JavaScript SDK, please see the Basic JavaScript SDK installation guide here.
