I am looking for an analytics solution for tracking link clicks and counting attachment downloads from embedded airtable views. Is there a good solution out there for this already? I’m having trouble finding a good resource for this. I have several solutions but they’re rather labor intensive and I’m hoping this can just happen automatically after initial setup.
User clicks external link from embedded airtable record on website> +1 count in analytics for that link click.
I am about to go test this, but does anyone know if you can use a google events to track link clicks in airtable?
Solved! Go to Solution.

I did this for one client a while back but the analytics had to be (a) real-time) and (b) updated into Airtable itself - basic design:
Did it all in Google Apps Script more than 18 months ago; running perfect, no failures; tracked 17,800 downloads so far across 11 tables in a corporate portal site. We also know who downloaded because of the G-Suite portal. This approach would work fine in a public site context but you wouldn’t have the identity of the file requester.

Hi Bill,
this is the facility I'm looking for as well. Did you ever develop it further? Is your system still active? I see this thread is 2020, but do you have a how to guide to set this all up please?
