Sources

Sources are how you get data into Freshpaint. Once you have configured your sources, you can send data from them to your different destinations. Currently Freshpaint supports the following five sources:

Web

The Web source gives you access to Autotrack and Precision Tracking. Read below to learn more.

Autotrack

Autotrack is the main source of data for Freshpaint. Once you install the Freshpaint Javascript SDK, Autotrack will automatically start collecting data from your site. Checkout our overview of Autotrack for information on how to make use of the data collected by it:

Autotrack

Precision Tracking

Precision Tracking is an alternative way to track events from your website based on writing code. If you're an engineer, you may prefer to use the Precision Tracking over Autotrack in order to track events. By using precision tracking, you get to keep all your event tracking as code. You can also be confident that your events fire exactly when you want them. Checkout our overview of Precision Tracking for more information:

Precision Tracking

Server-Side

The server-side source allows you to send events to Freshpaint from your backend. This can be useful for sending data that isn't available on your frontend or if you are concerned about adblockers. Checkout the overview of the server-side source for more information.
