The Cloudflare Worker collector tracks page visits at the edge, before requests reach your origin. The worker sits in front of your existing site, transparently proxies every matching request, and forwards page visit events to The Prompting Company — without changing your origin server or adding any client-side JavaScript. This guide will walk through how to set up the Cloudflare Worker with your deployment.

How it works

The worker attaches to one or more routes and acts as a pass-through proxy:
  1. A visitor requests a page that matches a configured route (for example, example.com/*).
  2. The worker forwards the original request to your origin and returns the response immediately.
  3. In parallel, the worker sends a page visit event to The Prompting Company. This happens in the background, so it never delays the response to the visitor.

Before you start

You will need:
  • A Cloudflare account with the domain you want to track added as a zone.
  • A TPC API key with the analytics:write scope. You can create an API key with the analytics:write scope going to your Organization Settings, then selecting API Keys. Note that creating an API key requires an account with the Enterprise Plan.
  • The cf-collector folder from the samples repository

Step 1: Install dependencies

From the cf-collector directory, install the dependencies:

Step 2: Set your API key

The API key is stored as an encrypted Wrangler secret, not in the config file. Set it by running:
Paste your key when prompted.
Never commit your API key or place it in wrangler.jsonc. Always store it as a secret.

Step 3: Configure your routes

Edit the routes array in wrangler.jsonc to match the pages you want to track. Set the pattern to your domain and the zone_name to the matching Cloudflare zone:
wrangler.jsonc
You can add more entries to the array to track additional domains or path patterns.

Step 4: Deploy

To deploy the worker to Cloudflare, run:
Once deployed, Cloudflare routes all traffic matching your patterns through the worker, and page visits should begin appearing in your analytics page.

Troubleshooting

Events are not appearing

  • Confirm the request URL matches a pattern in your routes array, including the correct zone_name.
  • Make sure the TPC_API_KEY secret is set for the environment you deployed to (npx wrangler secret list).
  • Verify the worker is deployed and bound to the route in the Cloudflare dashboard under Workers & Pages.
