trackView rejects with throwing an error

I am using this plugin with ionic. (latest version of everything)

I have this code: start tracking -> track view “test”

GoogleAnalytics.startTrackerWithId(config.googleAnalytics).then(
    res => {
        console.log("startTrackerWithId res", res);
        GoogleAnalytics.trackView("test").then(
            res => console.log("trackView res", res),
            error => console.log("trackView error", error),
        );
    },
    error => console.log("startTrackerWithId error", error)
);

And the console output is:

trackView error Error: send timeout

Am I doing something wrong?

I ran into the same thing. It’s a documentation problem. There’s no note to tell you that you need to have the GA code in your index.html as well! You would think installation of a plugin would handle everything for you, but it doesn’t. You still need code in your index.html. Copy it from the GA dashboard and paste it in.

@martyzz1 it returns a promise on ionic2: https://ionicframework.com/docs/v2/native/google-analytics/
