Real Time reporting tracks page details even if pageview is not sent. #551

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Name of affected component: Web Tracking (analytics.js)

Issue summary:
I want to only send the eCommerce transaction/item data from the site but don't 
want the page details to be tracked in which the eCommerce javascript is 
loaded. To achieve this I didn't use ga('send','pageview') in the script but I 
could still the data in Real time reports. 

Although I can't see the page details in Behavior > Site Content > All Pages 
which is fine.

So, probably the issue persists in real-time reporting or may be I am missing 
something.

Expected output:
Should not send page details to google analytics by default when sending 
eCommerce data.

Notes:
For reference, following is the script I am using:
<script  type="text/javascript">
    (function (i, s, o, g, r, a, m) {
        i['GoogleAnalyticsObject'] = r; i[r] = i[r] || function () {
            (i[r].q = i[r].q || []).push(arguments)
        }, i[r].l = 1 * new Date(); a = s.createElement(o),
        m = s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0]; a.async = 1; a.src = g; m.parentNode.insertBefore(a, m)
    })(window, document, 'script', '//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js', 'ga');

    ga('create', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-X', 'auto');
    ga('require', 'ecommerce', 'ecommerce.js');
    ga('ecommerce:addTransaction', {
        'id': 'T001',
        'affiliation': 'Example',
        'revenue': '10',
        'shipping': '0.00',
        'tax': '0.00'
    });
    ga('ecommerce:addItem', {
        'id': 'T001',
        'name': 'prod1',
        'sku': 'pid1',
        'category': '',
        'price': '5',
        'quantity': '2'
    });
    ga('ecommerce:send');    
</script>
