Creating list of items for JavaScript

Need help Plugins

Can anyone help me with this issue?

I’m using Google Analytics eCommerce tracking using dataLayer push via Google Tag Manager events.

Pushing a single item to the data layer using Javascript Toolbox is fine, but how can it do this for a number of items that make up an order. This works for a single item:

window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
window.dataLayer.push({
‘event’:‘begin_checkout’,
‘ecommerce’:{
‘items’:[
{
‘item_name’:’[name]’,
‘item_id’:’[id]’,
‘price’:’[price]’,
‘item_brand’:’[brand]’,
‘item_category’:’[cat1’,
‘item_category_2’:’[cat2]’,
‘item_category_3’:’[cat3]’,
‘item_category_4’:’[cat4]’,
‘item_variant’:’[variant]’,
‘item_list_name’:’[list_name]’,
‘item_list_id’:’[list_id]’,
‘index’:[1],
‘quantity’:’[quantity]’
}]
}}
)

An order can contain several items, but I want to be able to capture all the items in order, not just one.

Thanks

Put you a for loop in there big dawg

I don’t want to run the event multiple times, just add several items to the event, so begin_checkout only fires once, but I could have 1 item or 10 items and they’d all be captured as part of the event.

Hope I’m making sense, I’m a beginner at joining code like this to Bubble’s no code functions.

You most certainly will need a for loop

Can anyone help building the for loop? I’ve tried researching it but it’s beyond my current capability/ familiarity with JavaScript.

@doug.burden is right, you’ll need a for loop to process the list.

As for the code, you can do what i do. Ask ChatGPT for the code.

Or @ihsanzainal84, consult MDN and know the answer for yourself.
