<script src="https://cdn.convultra.com/ultra.min.js"></script>Or if self-hosting:
<script src="/path/to/ultra.min.js"></script>Check Initialization
Ensure you're calling init():
Convultra.init({
apiKey: 'your-api-key',
endpoint: 'https://your-endpoint.com'
})Check Console Errors
Look for JavaScript errors that may prevent loading:
- Syntax errors
- CORS errors

Check Project Filter
In dashboard, ensure:
- Correct project selected
- Time range includes recent events
- "Include bots" toggle if testing
Click IDs Not Being Captured

โ
https://yoursite.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQ...
โ https://yoursite.com/Check SDK on Landing Pages
The SDK must be on the first page user lands on to capture click IDs.
Check LocalStorage

value: 99.99
})
// โ Bad
Convultra.trackPurchase({
value: 99.99
})Check for Page Reloads
Thank you page reloads can fire events multiple times. Solutions:
- Use one-time session flag
- Check URL for already-tracked indicator
- Use server-side tracking
// One-time flag example
if (!sessionStorage.getItem('order_tracked')) {
Convultra.trackPurchase({ orderId: '...' })
sessionStorage.setItem('order_tracked', 'true')
}Check for Multiple SDK Instances
Ensure script isn't included twice on the page.

firstName: 'John', // Capitalized
lastName: 'Doe'
}
// โ Bad
{
email: ' USER@Example.COM ', // Not normalized
phone: '(415) 555-1234', // Wrong format
firstName: 'john',
lastName: 'DOE'
}Provide More Data

|---|---|
| Email only | 60-70 percent |

| + Address | 90-95 percent |
