Pixel Helper Extension

Install the AnyTrack Pixel Helper Chrome Extension for direct access to essential tracking data from your AnyTrack properties. Use it to validate your AnyTrack Tag configuration, verify your Tracking Tags, and inspect your events—all without leaving your browser.

Overview

The AnyTrack Pixel Helper is a free Chrome extension that installs in your browser, enabling you to inspect the setup of the Properties you are tracking with AnyTrack. Also verify the presence of your Tracking Tags and the code of your snippets. The extension provides you with event log data, allowing you to track the action right where it happens.

⚠️

Browser Events Only

the Tracking Tag Helper supports exclusively browser-based events. Purchase events tracked via server-side tracking (postback, webhooks, or API) will not be displayed. Refer to each integration to see which events are triggered through the AnyTrack JS Tag.

Installing the Extension

Follow these steps to install the AnyTrack Pixel Helper Chrome Extension:

1. Visit the Chrome Web Store and find the AnyTrack Pixel Helper extension.
2. Install the extension and add it to your browser.
3. Pin the extension to keep it visible in the browser bar.

Using the Extension

1. Visit the website where you have installed the AnyTrack Tag.

2. If the AnyTrack Tag is detected on the page, the extension icon turns blue. A grey icon means no AnyTrack Tag was found.

   

3. Click the extension icon to open the inspection panel.

What the Extension Shows

When you open the Tracking Tag Helper, it displays the following information for the current page:

• AnyTrack Tag Status — Confirms the AnyTrack Tag is present and shows the associated Property ID.
• Tracking Tags Detected — Lists all Tracking Tags found on the page (e.g., Meta Pixel, Google Ads tag, TikTok Pixel). This helps you verify that your ad platform Tracking Tags are firing correctly.
• Event Log — Shows browser-based events as they happen in real time. Each event displays the event name, associated parameters, and which Tracking Tags received the data. Use this to confirm that clicks, form submissions, and other actions are being tracked.

How to Use the Event Log

The event log is the most useful part of the extension for debugging. To test your setup:

1. Open the Tracking Tag Helper on your website.
2. Perform the action you want to track (click a link, submit a form, visit a page).
3. Watch the event log for the corresponding event to appear.
4. Verify the event name matches what you expect and that the correct Tracking Tags received it.

If an event does not appear, check that the action triggers a browser-based event and that your ad blocker is disabled.
