Setting up data collection

Yandex Metrica lets you use HTML markup to control some types of collected data. The JavaScript code of a Yandex Metrica tag reacts to the presence of classes of HTML elements (the class attribute). The rules defined for a class are triggered for the element itself and all child elements unless otherwise specified.
