This page instructs how to set up Product Analytics data capture in combination with Experience Analytics.

1. Initialize the CSQ SDK with your environment ID.

   * Standalone

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withEnvironmentId(
           id: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID',
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withDatasourceId(
           id: 'YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID',
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

   Find your environment ID

   `YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID` is either provided to you by Contentsquare or you can find it in **Account** > **Manage** > **Projects** > \[Select your project] > **Environments** within the [Product Analytics web app ↗](https://heapanalytics.com/app/).

2. Recommended To capture screen views automatically, add the `CSQNavigatorObserver` to your app's navigator observers:

   **main.dart**

   ```dart
   import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


   MaterialApp(
     navigatorObservers: [
       CSQNavigatorObserver(),
     ],
     home: MyHomePage(),
   )
   ```

   More details in [Track screens](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/csq-sdk-flutter/experience-analytics/track-screens/).

3. Recommended To enable automatic capture of user interactions, add the option `enableInteractionsAutocapture: true` to your `AnalyticsOptions` configuration:

   * Standalone

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withEnvironmentId(
           id: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             enableInteractionsAutocapture: true,
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withDatasourceId(
           id: 'YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             enableInteractionsAutocapture: true,
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

4. (Optional) If your Product Analytics environment is hosted in the EU, set the `baseUrl` option to `https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net`.

   * Standalone

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withEnvironmentId(
           id: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             baseUrl: Uri.parse('https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net'),
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withDatasourceId(
           id: 'YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             baseUrl: Uri.parse('https://mh.ba.contentsquare.net'),
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

5. Add the `disablePageviewAutocapture: true` option to the configuration.

   * Standalone

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withEnvironmentId(
           id: 'YOUR_ENVIRONMENT_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             disablePageviewAutocapture: true,
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```

   * CSQ Experience Platform

     **main.dart**

     ```dart
     import 'package:contentsquare/csq.dart';


     void main() async {
       await CSQ().start(
         startConfig: StartConfig.withDatasourceId(
           id: 'YOUR_DATASOURCE_ID',
           options: AnalyticsOptions(
             disablePageviewAutocapture: true,
           ),
         ),
       );
     }
     ```
