Tracker proxy Report an error

“You can optionally set up a Tracker Proxy to route tracking requests through your website domain (for example, mysite.com) instead of sending them directly to the Matomo tracking endpoint.”
Tracker proxy supports Report an error

“The Tracker Proxy is supported with the JavaScript tracking code and Matomo Tag Manager.”
Tracker proxy auth Report an error

“A dedicated Matomo user is required if your tracker proxy authenticates requests when forwarding them to Matomo. In this setup, the proxy uses a token_auth value to authenticate tracking requests server-side.”
Tracker proxy files Report an error

“Download the following files from the official Matomo Tracker Proxy repository: matomo.php, piwik.php, proxy.php, and matomo-proxy.php.”
Tracker proxy heatmap file Report an error

“If you are using the Heatmaps and Session recordings plugin, you should also download plugins/HeatmapSessionRecording/configs.php.”
Tracker proxy subdomain Report an error

“You can also use a subdomain (for example, analytics.mysite.com) if it belongs to the same site (mysite.com). If the proxy is hosted on a different domain, tracking requests may be treated as third-party.”
Tracker proxy requirements Report an error

“The PHP-based Tracker Proxy requires the web server hosting the website to make outbound HTTPS requests to your Matomo instance.”
