March 13, 2023

Analytics

Fixed

February 27, 2023

  • We fixed a bug in filters that caused issues when the following dimensions were used: Subdivision and Subdivision 2.

Consent Manager

Fixed

  • We fixed the translation of consent forms in Swedish.

Administration

Improved

  • Our meta sites/apps are now CNIL compliant: The session log report will be hidden on meta sites/apps that contain a site/app with this option turned on: Administration > Sites & apps > Privacy > Comply with CNIL guidelines (on).

Tracker

Improved

February 13, 2023

16.36.0

Analytics

Fixed

  • We fixed a bug in calculated metrics that was causing errors in metrics calculated from Google Ads metrics and goal metrics (Goal conversion, Unique goal conversion, Goal conversion rate).

Tag Manager

Improved

Administration

New

  • The Piwik PRO user interface is now available in Swedish. To switch your current language to Swedish, go to Menu > Profile > Language & Region.
Removed

  • We’ve stopped supporting the Japanese language in the Piwik PRO user interface.

Tracker

New

January 30, 2023

16.35.0

Tracker

Improved

December 12, 2022

16.33.0

Analytics

New

  • You can now pick a sample size for your reports to customize their accuracy and speed. A smaller sample size will generate reports faster, while a larger sample size may take more time to process but will deliver more accurate results. The default sample size is 100%.

Tag Manager

New

  • A lookup table variable lets you create a variable with a value that depends on the value from a lookup table. For example, you can map the product IDs to their corresponding product names. When a visitor clicks on a product, the product ID is passed as a parameter to the lookup table, which returns the corresponding product name. This allows you to track events and trigger tags using the product name instead of the product ID.

Tracker

New

  • The setCustomVariableMaximumLength() method in our JS API lets you set the maximum length for custom variable values. This can be useful if you need to send values longer than the default value 200.

    Note: Custom variables are deprecated. We recommend using custom dimensions instead.

Improved

  • Links that use the “data” or “blob” protocols are no longer tracked as downloads because they don’t contain URLs. Tracking these links as downloads wouldn’t be useful in analytics.
  • Events from sessions longer than 12 hours are now labeled as Excluded events and are visible in Analytics > Settings > Tracker debugger. Previously, they were not visible in the tracker debugger.

Fixed

  • We fixed the tracking of page titles in ecommerce and goal conversion requests. We added the action_name parameter, which passes the page title data.

November 21, 2022

16.32.0

Consent Manager

Improved

  • For newly added sites or apps, your consent form is now available in English by default. If you want to have it in other languages, you need to add them manually. We used to add several languages with built-in translations automatically.
  • Your consent forms are now also available in Italian. You’ll see the Italian copy for newly added sites or apps.

Integrations

Improved

  • In Looker Studio (Google Data Studio) integration, you can now use the following metrics: Average session time, Average page views in session, Average time on page, Sum of goal revenue, Page path, Page domain, and the following dimensions: Month, Year, Day of week. You can also use Is Null in filters (which is the same as is empty in Piwik PRO).

    We also improved data aggregation, which helps prevent duplicate dimension values in tables.

  • Our Android SDK and iOS SDK now support a new format of the goal ID (UUID) in the track().goal() method. We recommend switching from the old format to the new one.
Fixed

November 8, 2022

16.31.0

Analytics

New

  • You can now easily share any report or dashboard with your teammates via the link. Shared reports and dashboards include date ranges, segments, filters and other settings that you applied to them.

October 24, 2022

September 26, 2022

16.28.0

Analytics

Fixed

  • In the session log report, sessions that span across two days now show events from both days. The report used to show only events from the first day.

Tracker

Fixed

  • Ecommerce orders with the same order ID are reported once per session. If you track a few orders with the same order ID in a session, only the first one will be visible in reports.
  • We fixed a bug that was creating an additional session if you used a &new_visit=1 parameter in a tracking request and a goal was completed (goal conversion).

Integrations

New

  • In Google Data Studio integration, you can now connect meta sites/apps from Piwik PRO, use calculated metrics and use custom channel groupings.
  • In our iOS SDK, custom events now have an optional parameter: path.
Improved

  • We updated the Google Ads API to the latest version (v11).

September 12, 2022

16.27.0

Analytics

Improved

  • The goal ID is now unique for the whole account. It used to be unique only on the site/app level. (Make sure your dashboards, segments, calculated metrics, dimension value grouping and meta sites/apps report goal data correctly after this change.)

Fixed

  • The IPv6 address is now visible in the tracker debugger.

Fixed

  • If the country parameter is a valid “ISO 3166 alpha 2” country code, you’ll see its name as the country name. Lat and long have to be decimal values.

Improved

  • You can now click on links to pages in Custom reports > User flow > Show all paths.
Deprecated

  • In August 2022, we’ll stop collecting data for the following dimension: Designated market area (DMA). The change is due to the new geolocation service that doesn’t provide such data. This dimension is no longer available in custom reports, but it is and will be in core reports (for access to historical data).

Tag Manager

Improved

  • We renamed these tags to align with the current brand names: Floodlight Counter (was DoubleClick Floodlight Counter), Floodlight Sales (was DoubleClick Floodlight Sales), Meta Pixel (was Facebook Pixel).

Tracker

Improved

  • Our JavaScript tracker now uses the ​​navigator.sendBeacon() method to send data from a client to a server. This method is more reliable than the previous one because it sends data asynchronously and doesn’t impact the loading of the next page.
  • Our JavaScript tracker now uses the PerformanceNavigationTiming interface instead of the legacy Performance.timing property to measure page performance metrics.

  • Refreshed look of the log-in screen, reset-password screen and email notifications.
  • Refreshed look of Administration and Profile with clearer option names and descriptions.

Tracker

New

  • We introduce a new faster and more stable tracker. It handles traffic spikes with ease, calculates sessions more accurately, and passes detailed event data to the tracker debugger without any delay (broken event, excluded event, heartbeat ping, deanonymizing-user ping, page-performance-metric ping). The new tracker comes with setup options available under Administration > Sites & apps and Administration > Settings > Global site & app settings making it easy to control how you collect data.
  • You can now use new API endpoints for the tracker debugger.
Removed

  • We removed the old tracker and replaced it with the new one. Now sessions are calculated a bit differently, so you might see some differences in numbers in reports.

Integrations

Improved

  • In Tableau integration, you can now choose a Google Ads scope and import data from Google Ads.
  • The mobile SDK for Android and iOS now fully supports anonymous tracking.
