Jeez so not hard right? /Thank_you
Topic summary
The discussion centers on identifying the URL structure for Shopify’s order confirmation page, primarily for conversion tracking purposes in Google Analytics and advertising platforms.
Key Solutions Identified:
- The order confirmation/thank you page URL follows the pattern
/thank_youor/checkouts/[unique-identifier]/thank_you - Each completed order generates a unique URL, making it impossible to predict specific URLs in advance
Conversion Tracking Setup:
- For Google Analytics goals: Use “Regular expression” destination type with
/thank_youas the pattern - Conversion tracking codes should be added via Settings > Checkout > Additional Scripts section
- Alternative approach: Use event tracking with JavaScript snippets for enhanced e-commerce tracking
Checkout Funnel Structure:
Participants outlined the typical URL progression:
- Product page:
/products/[product-name] - Cart:
/cart - Contact info:
/checkout/contact_information - Shipping:
/checkout/shipping - Payment:
/checkout/payment - Confirmation:
/thank_you
Ongoing Frustration:
Several users expressed difficulty getting a straightforward answer, though the /thank_you endpoint was eventually confirmed as the standard solution for tracking completed orders across different products.
