Every form set up in Zuko has a unique tracking and completion code.
This tracks views, starters, and all interactions with the fields and inputs on your form. Contains a unique 'slug' that identifies your form when data arrives at the Zuko servers. It will look something like this:
This tracks successful completions of your forms. Also contains the unique slug for your form. It will look like this:
Nothing in either code dictates where the code should be placed on your site, which means you are free to put or fire these tags however works for your forms.
In plain english, you’ll need to configure the firing of codes to look something like this:
Where the form appears on your site - fire activity tracking code for form
When the form is successfully submitted - fire completion tracking code for form.
As long as you stick with this as guidance, it really is up to you how you fire the codes on your site, but below you can find some guidance on some different types of form setup.
Zuko can be added to your site directly or via a tag management system.
This is the simplest form of set up. The Activity tracking code just needs to be fired on the form page, and Completion code on the thank you page.
This might be the case on a homepage which has a contact form that appears after clicking a button. You may not want to load Zuko on every page load as this will count towards your visit allowance for the month. You would therefore fire the Activity Tracking code when and only when the form becomes visible to your visitor. This might be on a click event when the button is clicked, or another event that represents the loading of the form.
So for some forms there may not be a brand new URL loaded for the thank you message. In this case, you may need to fire the Zuko completion code when the confirmation message is made visible (and only then) - this can be triggered by an event on your website that signifies that this message has been shown.

In short - each step is added as a new form in Zuko (with a different slug) and then the Activity and Completion codes are added in a chain throughout the form journey. Check the guide for more information on this!
This would be tracked as a single form within Zuko with a single slug. The Zuko code should be loaded once at the start of the journey and the completion code should be loaded when the entire journey is completed at the end. Zuko will take care of the rest.

In short - each step is added as a new form in Zuko (with a different slug) and then the activity and completion codes are added in a chain throughout the form journey.
Completion codes are added in every place that a visitor might get taken after completing a step.
For example completing Step 1 might take someone to Step 2A, Step 2B or Step 2C, so the completion code for Step 1 should be added to all three.
Thank you page
This can be added into Zuko as a single form using any of URLs - remember Zuko only looks at the domain and slug.
Then they can add the same tracking and completion codes to every single version of the forms.
This can be done in the same way as above - simply adding the same tracking and completion codes to each form. If the slug is the same, Zuko will merge all of the data into one form in Zuko.
Set up as a single form in Zuko, with the activity tracking code added at the start, and the completion code fired right at the end on form submission.
In some of the above scenarios you may not want to target the whole page with Zuko. For instance, if you have two forms on the same page but want to keep their data separate. In these cases, you need to narrow your target down to the form only (or an element containing the form). More information this can be found in the guide to setting up the Zuko target.
The Zuko activity tracking code needs to be loaded after the form itself has been loaded onto a page. Sometimes this will mean that using Pageview as a trigger in GTM or other tag management system will not work, since the Zuko code will fire before the form ‘exists’ on the page. Consider using on Window Loaded, DOM ready, or a Timer trigger.
