analytics.selectedItem

analytics.selectedItem is an event on the Event Bus that occurs after a user has selected a product. This event only dispatches when analytics is enabled in the shop.

Event body

none

Example

In this example we listen to analytics.selectedItem event and perform an action whenever it's emitted.

useStorefront(async (storefront) => {
    storefront.eventBus.on('analytics.selectedItem', () => {
        console.log('A user has selected a product')
    });
});

Example

In this example we use a Message Storage API to retrieve an array of past analytics.selectedItem events.

useStorefront((storefront) => {
    const messageStorageApi = storefront.getApiSync('messageStorageSystemApi');

    const pastSelectedItemEvents = messageStorageApi.getChannelMessages('analytics.selectedItem');

    if (pastSelectedItemEvents.length > 0) {
        pastSelectedItemEvents.forEach(({ body: eventBody }) => {
            console.log('perform action on every past event');
        });
    }
});
