Set up a Skybeam Pixel | Skybeam Help Center

Website Tracker Instructions

The Skybeam Pixel is a small snippet of JavaScipt code that will help you understand the impact of your Skybeam campaign on your business growth. We highly encourage you to set up a pixel!

Step 1: Claim your Skybeam Pixel ID

When selecting your campaign’s objective, you will see a note asking you to “Set up your Skybeam Pixel”. After clicking here a window will open with a set of instructions.

Click “Claim Pixel ID” -> Copy the Pixel ID

Step 2: Add the pixel to your website

First, find the <head> </head> tags in your webpage code, or locate the header template in your CMS or web platform.

<!-- Example -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <!-- Paste your pixel code here -->
  </head>

Paste the pixel code at the bottom of the header section, just above the </head> tag.

Skybeam Pixel code can be added above or below existing tracking tags (such as Google Analytics) in your site header.

Paste the code on every page where you want to track conversion events.

<!-- Skybeam Analytics -->
<script>
(function(e,n,t){e["$$d2cxFn"]=t;e[t]=e[t]||function(){(e[t].q=e[t].q||[]).push(arguments)};var c=n.getElementsByTagName("script")[0],o=n.createElement("script");o.async=true;o.src="https://analytics-sm.com/js/v1/beacon.js";c.parentNode.insertBefore(o,c)})(window,document,"sm_beacon");
sm_beacon('setup', 'beacon', {Your Pixel ID});
sm_beacon('setup', 'user_tracking', true);
sm_beacon('send', 'pageview');
</script>
<!-- End Skybeam Analytics -->

Step 3: Check Pixel Setup

Manual Check

In your Web Browser, under Developer Tool select Network.
- Mac = (Option + Command + I)
- Windows = (Alt + Command + I)
In the search bar, type “analytics”
- If the pixel has been properly implemented, you'll see at least two rows.
  - beacon.js
  - ?bid=…
- Click on the row starting with ?bid=
  - Click on Headers and under Request Headers –> :authority: you should see analytics-sm.com

Email Confirmation

Please check your account admin's email for confirmation of claiming your Pixel ID. If you need further assistance, reply to the email or start a conversation with the Skybeam Chat Bot.
You will also receive a follow-up email from a Skybeam representative once your Skybeam Pixel is confirmed to be set up properly.

If you are running a Retargeting Campaign…

Your Retargeting Campaign will automatically have a start time 24 hours after you submit the campaign, although it will not start delivering impressions until the Skybeam Pixel is properly configured. We recommend setting up your Skybeam Pixel as soon as possible in order to get the most out of your retargeting campaign.

For Awareness Campaigns, impressions will start delivering on the scheduled start date regardless of your Skybeam Pixel setup status. However, attribution measurement will only begin once the Pixel setup is complete.

Attribution Reporting

We understand that your business’s growth is a top priority, and it’s essential that you can measure how Skybeam contributes to it. We’re dedicated to developing the best Attribution Product possible, and it’s coming soon! In the meantime, we will be emailing users weekly with their campaigns’ Attribution Report.
