As documented in the HTML markup requirements without Narrative API Response , you can track many components appearing on any page of your web-site, not only the components which are returned as part of the Boxalino Narrative API Response.
In this article, we document our Best-Practice naming for such tracking and highly recommend you to follow it as closely as possible in your integration:
Parameters conventions
We recommend to pass parameters as key values pairs (with = sign in between) and separated by the pipe sign ‘|'.
So to track something with a name ‘myname’ and two parameters: color:blue and size:big, the following string value should be used:
myname|color=blue|size=big
data-bx-narrative-type
For the type, we recommend to track the page type using the following values.
We indicated the Customer Journey Step as per our definition: Widget & Page Optimizers (WPO)

* for the cases of CONSIDERATION, as they are becoming quickly complicated, it is advised to consider using the Boxalino Narrative API as early as possible as this will make the tracking much simpler as it is all automated by the Boxalino Narrative API response. Adding elements in Boxalino there will be automatically tracked in the proper way without additional efforts on your side.
