Measure pageviews

AI-generated Key Takeaways

By default, Google Analytics automatically sends a page_view event whenever a page loads or the browser history changes.
For single-page applications or websites with infinite scrolling, you might need to manually control how page_view events are sent to avoid duplicates or inaccurate data.
To manually send page_view events, first disable the default pageview measurement, and then use the page_view event with relevant parameters like page_title and page_location.
The page_view event includes parameters like page_title and page_location, which by default are populated with the document title and URL, respectively.

Whenever someone loads a page of your website or their browser history state is changed by the active site, an enhanced measurement event called page_view is sent from your website to Google Analytics. Since the event is sent automatically, you don't need to send pageview data to Analytics manually.

However, when you want to manually control how pageviews are sent (e.g. single-page applications or infinite scrolling), you can disable pageviews and then manually send them from your website. Learn how to Measure single-page applications.

This document describes the default pageview behavior and then how to send your own pageviews manually.
