Usage

$3

By default this plugin will track endpoint requests with the following:

- event: 'endpointRequest'
- action: the id of the endpoint
- method: the method called

$3

To send a custom event, all that you need to do is send a get/post request to the /__track_event__ endpoint.

The query parameters passed should event, action and/or label.

_Example:_

`js
import axios from "axios"

axios.get("/__track_event__?event=myEvent&action=theAction&label=theLabel")
``

Because server events are triggered from Node, they will show as "non-browser" traffic in analytics (no browser or language set). Keep this in mind when creating filters to screen out bot traffic, etc..
