Connect Plausible: what to paste and what FoxPlug reads
A lightweight, privacy-friendly web analytics tool, cloud or self-hosted. FoxPlug reads it only when you press Check for what's new. What you give it: Stats API key (a Business plan feature).
Where to find it: In FoxPlug open Settings, then Publishing & integrations, then the Analytics section, and press How to connect next to Plausible. Faster: press / in Settings and type Plausible. Open it in FoxPlug
Steps
- Select the team that owns the site, open account settings, API Keys.
- Click New API Key, choose Stats API, copy the key (shown once), then Create API Key.
- Note the site domain as Plausible lists it (example.com, no https://).
- Paste the key and the domain into FoxPlug.
- Press the connect button in FoxPlug. FoxPlug checks the key or sign-in straight away and tells you in plain words if it was refused.
Try it on your own site first
Paste your site address and see the brief FoxPlug writes from it, right here. Free, no account, no card.
Good to know
- What to give: Stats API key (a Business plan feature). Give it read-only access.
- What FoxPlug looks at: visitors; visits; pageviews; bounce rate; visit duration.
- Everything FoxPlug reads from Plausible, and what it never reads, is on its integration page.
- You can disconnect any time from the same place, and the stored key is deleted.
What it does not do
- page-level or source-level breakdowns (only totals and a daily series are requested).
- other sites in your team (one site_id per request).
