-
You can track drag and drop actions by leveraging the HTML5 Drag and Drop API, using JavaScript, and Google Tag Manager. You’ll need to write custom JavaScript code that listens for the relevant drag and drop events, such as ‘dragstart’ and ‘drop’. Once an event is detected, your script can push the relevant information (like the object ID that was dragged and the drop coordinates) to the dataLayer. Then, in Google Tag Manager, you can create a custom event trigger that fires when these events are pushed to the dataLayer. Finally, create a tag to send these events to GA4. Make sure your JavaScript code is properly connected to your web page, and remember to always test your configuration in Google Tag Manager before deploying it.
