## Introduction
To track WebViews in your app using Contentsquare, you'll need to configure the tracking tag and the mobile SDK to work together.
## Platform implementation
See specific guide for each platform:
* đź“š [iOS](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/ios/track-webviews/)
* đź“š [Android](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/android/track-webviews/)
* đź“š [Flutter](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/flutter/track-webviews/)
* đź“š [React Native](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/react-native/track-webviews/)
## Tracking tag configuration
We support implementing the **tracking tag** via [Google Tag Manager](#google-tag-manager-template) or [manually](#manual-injection). Note that GTM is the preferred method of injection of the Contentsquare Tag.
Required trackpageview call
You **must** include a `trackPageview` command in your tag code. This call is essential to initialize and start the tracking process in WebView environments. Without this command, tracking will not function properly.
## The trackPageview command
The `trackPageview` command is a mandatory component of your WebView tracking implementation. This command:
* **Initializes the tracking session** when the page loads in the WebView
* **Enables data collection** by signaling to Contentsquare that tracking should begin
* **Must be called from the tag code** regardless of whether you use GTM or manual injection
* **Works in conjunction with the mobile SDK** to ensure proper data synchronization
The command typically follows this format:
```javascript
window._uxa.push([
"trackPageview",
window.location.pathname + window.location.hash.replace("#", "?__")
]);
```
This call should be included in every implementation method described below. (see [Track Pageviews](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/webview-tracking-tag/track-pageviews/#trackpageview-command-differences))
### Manual injection
To set up the tracking tag on your website, add the following lines of code on every page you want to analyze, either at the end of the `` tag.
```html
```
This code creates a function which will add an asynchronous call to a script and then execute the function. This is a way to avoid other elements loading being blocked on the page. This reduces the impact of the tag on your website’s performance.
### Google Tag Manager (Template)
You may already have implemented our GTM Tag (`Contentsquare - Main Tag`) for your website. Follow these steps to implement or verify the WebView setup.
1. Open your container and go to the **templates** section. 
2. Select **Search gallery**. 
3. Type in **`contentsquare`** and select the **Contentsquare - Main tag** option. 
4. Click **Add to workspace**. 
5. Confirm your choice by selecting **Add** 
6. Go to the Tags section and click the **New** button to create a new tag. 
7. Configure it by selecting the top-right button. 
8. Search for **`contentsquare`** and select the **Contentsquare - Main tag** template that you've previously added to your container. 
9. Confirm that your `my_web_tag_id` is correctly added. This should have been provided by your Contentsquare contact during your web implementation.
10. Similarly, confirm that your **my\_webview\_tag\_id** is properly configured. This is also provided by your Contentsquare contact. 
11. Select the **DOM Ready** as trigger. 
### Google Tag Manager (Custom HTML)
If your page loads in both a web and WebView environment, you should use a variable to determine whether the page is running in a WebView context before integrating the tracking tag. The Contentsquare Android and iOS SDK injects a `window.CS_isWebView` variable into the WebView to simplify the integration.
1. Add a new tag on your workspace. 
2. Select “Choose a tag type to begin setup…”. 
3. In the list, pick the “Custom HTML” tag. 
4. Copy and paste the following code in the Tag Configuration HTML section:
```html
```
5. Select “Choose a trigger to make this tag fire…” and pick "All Pages" from the list. 
Warning
`window.CS_isWebView` is available since Contentsquare's iOS SDK 4.36.0, Android SDK 4.32.0, React Native Bridge 3.9.0 or Flutter Plugin 4.13.0. If you have a custom way of checking if the page is loaded in a WebView, replace `window.CS_isWebView` with your solution.
## Validate WebView tracking
To verify WebView tracking, refer to the documentation available for [iOS](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/ios/track-webviews/#validate-webview-tracking) and [Android](https://docs.contentsquare.com/en/android/track-webviews/#validating-the-implementation-on-the-web-side).
