Overview

The Matomo Analytics Component by Edgee allows you to seamlessly send analytics events from your applications directly to Matomo via server-side requests at the edge.

This component is designed for developers who want to enhance user tracking and analytics accuracy while reducing the dependency on client-side SDKs and JavaScript trackers. It leverages Edgee’s edge computing platform to process and forward events with low latency and full privacy control.

🔑 Key Features & Benefits

Features

  • Server-Side Event Forwarding: Send page views, custom events, and user data directly to your Matomo instance from the edge
  • SDK-Free Tracking: Avoid adding heavy analytics SDKs to your frontend—no JS tracker required
  • Data Privacy & Compliance: By moving tracking to the server-side, you can better align with GDPR and other privacy regulations
  • Token-Based Access Control: Automatically include token_auth when needed to access restricted Matomo features
  • Context-Aware: Enrich events with client, session, campaign, and device context captured by Edgee

Benefits

  • More Reliable Analytics: Bypass ad blockers and JavaScript restrictions that prevent accurate tracking
  • Better Performance: Reduce frontend payload and latency by offloading tracking to the edge
  • Flexible & Customizable: Easily extend the logic for your specific tracking needs (e.g., custom variables, campaigns, ecommerce)

Use Cases

  • Website Analytics: Capture real-time page views and user journeys across your site
  • Custom Event Tracking: Track actions like form submissions, clicks, or product views without client JS
  • Authenticated User Tracking: Send user IDs or properties securely without exposing them in the frontend
