Troubleshooting
I'm receiving double events
If you're seeing duplicate pageview events in your Hotjar reports when using Heyflow, it's likely related to how Hotjar handles Single Page Applications (SPAs) like Heyflow.
Why is this happening?
Heyflow is a Single Page Application (SPA). This means flow steps (pages) load dynamically without a full page reload or URL change - specifically, the URL after the # symbol (called a fragment) changes, but Hotjar doesn't treat that as a new page by default. To ensure Hotjar tracks each flow step as a separate page, we're manually triggering page events using the Hotjar SPA API.
❗ However, there's a catch: If you've already customized your Hotjar settings to track fragment changes, and you're now using our new integration that manually sends events, you might see double pageviews - one triggered by your custom setup and one by Heyflow’s tracking.
How to Fix It
Check your Hotjar configuration:
Go to your Hotjar site's settings and ensure that you haven’t enabled fragment tracking or added custom JavaScript to track page changes.
Use one tracking method only:
If you’re using Heyflow's built-in Hotjar support, there’s no need to manually modify the Hotjar script or enable fragment tracking.
If you've previously customized Hotjar yourself, we recommend removing those changes to avoid conflicts.
