You can track the region of the page where an event occurs:

</div>

You should import this component in ./components/vf-component-rollup/scripts.js or your other JS process:
import { vfGaIndicateLoaded } from 'vf-analytics-google/vf-analytics-google';
// Or import directly
// import { vfGaIndicateLoaded } from '../components/raw/vf-analytics-google/vf-analytics-google.js';
let vfGaTrackOptions = {
vfGaTrackPageLoad: true,
vfGaTrackNetwork: {
serviceProvider: 'dimension2',
networkDomain: 'dimension3',
networkType: 'dimension4'
}
};
vfGaIndicateLoaded(vfGaTrackOptions);
vfGaIndicateLoaded() is the primary function and awaits and checks to see if Google Analytics client side JS has loaded. If it does, sets <body data-vf-google-analytics-loaded='true'>
vfGaIndicateLoaded() accepts these options for object vfGaTrackOptions:
vfGaTrackOptions.vfGaTrackPageLoad (defaults to true).
vfGaTrackOptions.vfGaTrackNetwork
Utility method to invalidate prior GA check <body data-vf-google-analytics-loaded='false'>
Can be used to directly track events if you wish to use your own event handler.
